Five years later, the Gandapas family moved to Odessa, where Radislav graduated from high school and entered the philological faculty of Odessa State University.

After graduating from the University, Gandapas worked for three years as a teacher of the Russian language in one of Odessa schools. Then he got a job at the House of Scientists as a deputy director, where he organized a training center for training specialists in business. It was here that, by chance, he held his first training, replacing one of his ill colleagues. Since then, Radislav Gandapas has devoted all his efforts to organizing his own business, not forgetting, however, about the family. He is married and has three children.
Primary activity

Oratory
Today it is difficult to find a professional sphere where the art of making speeches would not be useful. The ability to persuade, negotiate or speak publicly will be useful to both the manager and the doctor. The book and training of Radislav Gandapas "Oratory" is devoted to this skill. The author has been performing professionally for over 20 years. In his opinion, a speaker on the stage is an image that a person creates himself, so there can be no excuse for not being able to speak in public. It’s another matter that making speeches well is a skill that requires long practice.
Gandapas himself admits that he is still worried before each performance, but knows how to pull himself together and conduct the event so that no one notices his excitement. The secret of such mastery is simple - thorough preparation and knowledge of the subject. Numerous positive reviews of Radislav Gandapas confirm that the author himself fully mastered this art. At his trainings, he promises in a few hours to give students the basics of successful public speaking.
Radislav believes that in Russia there are very few good speakers, since this art is not taught either at school or at universities, as is customary in the West. Therefore, his trainings are extremely useful, as the ability to speak and convince is useful not only to those who are going to give speeches, but even to those who simply get a job. Indeed, in an interview it is also important to make the right impression on the listener and achieve the desired result from him. The trainer himself believes that oratory is one of the main components of a successful leader.
Trainings
Radislav Gandapas’s courses are divided into three main areas: oratory, leadership and life management.

According to the coach, many businessmen and politicians who have already achieved success in the professional field, are unhappy in everyday life, sacrificing happiness to the cause.
The author came up with life management trainings for himself, but they are in great demand, because the material component of life is not all that a person needs. Life as a business project, according to Radislav Gandapas, is not only making money and reputation, but also building a full-fledged life in all areas of life.

Leader charisma
A study on leadership qualities came out in 2013. In the book Charisma of a Leader, Radislav Gandapas addresses issues related to this almost mystical concept.
