The Book Project - Sabina Stary - Ideas on Communication, Leadership & Corporate Life

Teile deine Erfahrungen aus dem Corporate Life.

Du hast im Laufe der Zeit Erfahrungen gemacht, die uns kein Handbuch, kein Training und kein Onboarding je hätte beibringen können. Umso mehr freue ich mich, dass du einen Teil dieser Erfahrungen mit mir teilen möchtest.

Denn manchmal lernt man im Corporate Life die wichtigsten Lektionen zwischen den Zeilen.

Das Buch entsteht auf Englisch, deshalb ist auch das Formular unten auf Englisch. Deine Antworten kannst du aber gerne auf Deutsch schreiben, wenn dir das lieber ist. Erzähl einfach in deinen eigenen Worten – um die Übersetzung kümmere ich mich.
