LA DONNA E AGILE
How do you juggle NGO leadership, CEO positions in multinational companies in cosmetics, insurance and automobiles EMBA lecturing with numerous entrepreneurial ventures – some very successful, some – outright disappointing disasters? And more.
This talk is about business… unusual and it will share real case studies from my 20+ years as a leader in the exceedingly interesting transition of Bulgaria from planned to market economy. Can we learn how to take advantage of new opportunities?
Can we adapt super quickly to market demands and challenges?
Can we continuously innovate – our business and ourselves – in order to get better outcomes. How do we lead our teams – with purpose and positive intent, to transform people, businesses and communities?
