Experience Leadership aims to help leaders have a better experience leading while building experiences in their business. Real Social Dynamics Nick Kho Nick Kho I'm the CEO and Co-Founder of Real Social Dynamics, the world's largest dating coaching company. I grew up in Sacramento and then moved to the East Coast to go to boarding school in New Jersey at Lawrenceville School. Had great fun afterwards at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. And then spent a few years traveling the world with a small group of friends. Finally, we moved to Hollywood together into a mansion in the Hollywood Hills we named Project Hollywood Mansion. We transformed the former Dean Martin/Rat Pack Mansion into my office, where I build a global publishing and dating coaching company while simultaneously completing a Masters in Business Administration at the University of Southern California. We now run bootcamps worldwide in over 75 countries and 250 cities, and ship home study courses to every country in the world. I've moved out of the mansion, yet I still jetset around the world, and love living the amazing Las Vegas lifestyle (my favorite place I've ever lived).
