Produktinformationen zu „Magda (ePub)“
How did a teenage refugee from communist Poland become one of the richest women in South Africa? In what ways did she disrupt the financial services industry? What drove her to become an activist exposing corporate and government corruption? What are her secrets for succeeding in business and life? The founder of multibillion-rand financial services empire Sygnia Limited, Magda Wierzycka is South Africa's most successful businesswoman. In this engaging and insightful book, she tells the story of her life, from her childhood in communist Poland, her family's escape and relocation to South Africa, her early struggles in the male-dominated financial services industry, and the formation and growth of her own company, Sygnia. With a business model built on transparency and low fees, it was a natural step for Magda to become an outspoken critic of corporate and government corruption, exposing wrongdoing and making her many powerful enemies in the process. In this book, Madga shares the life lessons and business principles that have driven her and brought her success. This is a fascinating story that will inspire you to speak out, lean in, break out, and ultimately empower yourself not only to survive in life and business, but to thrive.
