Stevie Kim is now managing director of Vinitaly International. A career built by defeating prejudice

Her dream was to become a ballet dancer but, due to illness, she had to change her plans for the future. So, after a Bachelor degree, PhD in engineering and MBA from SDA Bocconi, she arrived at Amazon where she is now WW Same Day Director

For this reason, the Deputy Head of the National Civil Protection put aside her dream of studying volcanoes and started focusing on communities. "The greatest satisfaction? When you see the people you're trying to help recognize your genuine commitment"

"I was doing wonderful things, I was happy, but I never stepped out of my bubble." That's why she decided to take a break and travel, read, think. This led her to set up shop in London, where she is the CEO of her startup, BuzzMyVideos

Her leadership is built on trust and transparent communication of goals to the team. From Spotify to Dazn and now at Omio, where she is President of B2C Europe, she has always led global teams by focusing, she explains, on developing people's skills

The Vice President Telco and Media at Microsoft firmly believes this. In a male-dominated world, "I invented my own way of being a leader. With kindness and determination, but involving everyone"
