About: Gokce D Sezgin, Owner
(Pronounce my name: "Go-chay")
If you are a functional leader, owner of a business, or an executive, you likely know that no single approach is the right one for every business, every initiative or every objective you try to achieve. Due to my extensive experience in multiple industries and business scenarios, I take pride in finding what works best for you.
Earlier in my career, I was classically trained in marketing and business management in global multinationals like Unilever and Philips Consumer Lifestyle. Later on, I decided to leave the larger corporations behind in order to diversify my experience and learned a great deal about how to manage and scale smaller businesses. I made things happen with limited resources. Since 2015, I have also been enjoying sharing these experiences with learning-focused minds, as an adjunct instructor of Marketing Management, New Product Innovation, and Strategic Brand Management courses at Syracuse University and the University of Connecticut MBA programs.
I love what I do: making things happen from strategy (insight) to execution (flight). And I look forward to helping you achieve your objectives.
