Zsófia Bányai wanted to be a historian, but that didn’t quite work out. So she specialied in VAT, which lead her to company where she was able to adjust their systems into something more productive and bit by bit she became their operations manager. You can find Zsófia on LinkedIn.
Being Good with Being Different
Because of her background in history, Zsófia looks at problems differently than other finance students did, and now differently than other operations managers. This means seeing solutions the others wouldn’t necessarily see either and that’s a win for everybody. It’s time to learn to view our different perspectives and ideas as the strengths they are.
So I really think that those people who start to run their own business, even if it is really small, they do deserve the opportunity to look at this business, in a way, the big corporations look on their business. ~Zsófia Bányai Share on X
