SİNAN YORGANCIGİL

VP & Chief Commercial Officer (CCO)

“In my professional career of over 15 years, I had the chance to work in various industries and organizations assuming different duties and responsibilities. The “Purpose of Life” I had written during one training in the first years of my business life, continues to be very relevant for me:

“I am a snowball slowly rolling up a slope, always growing and getting richer and leaving a mark behind while rolling up, one that is at peace with his past and hopeful for the future.

The reason I joined Management Centre Turkey (MCT) is to contribute both with myself and the organizations I work in, to add the skills and the systems necessary for sustainable growth and of course to leave a trace behind me.”
