Your Phone, My Life is an adventure book of an untold story about the history of mobile telecommunications.

Storytime 1:

‘Your phone, my life: or, how did that phone land in your hand’ – is the untold story of the history of the mobile telecommunications industry. My adventure started in 1991 in the USSR, Ukraine and since then I held senior management positions in Eastern and Western Europe, in Kosovo, Lebanon, Azerbaijan, Haiti and now I’m ‘semi-retired’ living in East Africa where I support young people in realizing their dreams.

Storytime 2:

There are currently around 1000 mobile networks globally, and for many years Ms. Botter was one of the very few female CEO’s in the mobile industry. She is the first to give us an insight into this unknown world where many stakeholders have enormous, vested interests.

Storytime 3:

‘Leaders who are used to ‘dangerous environments’ are prepared. Preparation of a robust disaster plan is key.’ How do you, as a leader, lead in times of chaos? How do you function in times of extreme stress? Can your team rely on you?
