Succession: First job: Female CEO - why this woman is advocating for corporate succession
Munay Zamorano took over a company as a student. And is now working to ensure that not everyone is always only thinking about starting their own business. The numbers are on her side.
Berlin. Munay Zamorano might take a stroll through the hall or join the long queue for coffee. But she does not. Suddenly, she is there, hurrying towards a group of women, pausing briefly to greet them, and then quickly moving away with her smartphone glued to her ear. She is dressed in a black blazer, black skirt, and running shoes, not sneakers.
It is a Thursday morning in October at a multipurpose hall in Berlin, the Deutsche Gründer- und Unternehmertag, or deGUT for short. Zamorano is about to deliver her first of two presentations, once again sharing her story. Her energy matches the pace of her recent presentations. As a student intern, she took over a company and sold it again.
Now, she is advocating for young people to consider taking over existing businesses, not just starting new ones. She declares: "Succession is like entrepreneurship, but easier." However, she also adds: "You shouldn't do it the way I did."
