Yvonne Matzk

Founder, Coachere

What has been your business highlight of 2022?

Growing the Channel Community and seeing how people are benefiting from being mentored and the support the community is providing. And, finally, being happy with how and where I can add value in my coaching business.

If you were ruler of your own country, what law would you introduce first?

Based on my love of travel, I would introduce free movement of people for anyone who can show they can support themselves, through either employment, pension or other means.

Which channel or tech leader (outside of your own company) has impressed you most in 2022?

Anne-Marie Imafridon, CEO and co-founder of the Stemettes and author of She's In Ctrl. Anne-Marie is constantly driving for change and is breaking down barriers every day. She is a true inspiration to anyone who is fortunate enough to meet her.
