Where is asset management sales heading? This is something Christian Ledertoug, today Director of Man Group Denmark & Norway, often thinks about. In 2004, he relocated from Denmark to Luxembourg and moved from a position dedicated to sales to a role focusing on investments and experienced a big cultural change as well.
