Evelina Prodanova

Evelina becomes interested in the development of the personality and its characteristics while she is a high school student. The chance to work with different nationalities and in a company with a successfully-designed culture and a well established mentorship system as a very young professional leads to her wondering how national cultures and organizational ones are shaping the future of a venture. With rich experience working in different professional as well as national environments, Evelina has placed a focus on learning how companies can develop and navigate the culture that turns them into effectively performing structures while building internal communities of employees. Evelina has a MS in Organizational Behaviour and Consulting of Organizations and is currently a PhD student exploring the formation of organizational culture and group effectiveness in newly started ventures, combining the two fields that she is passionate about - organizational psychology and entrepreneurship. Evelina has done an intensive course in Entrepreneurship in Babson College, USA as part of the Bulgarian Young Leaders Program 2014 and is a 2016 proud Fulbright scholarship holder. She has a burning desire to make an impact and is currently working on an idea to help new ventures develop a sustainable organizational culture that leads to business effectiveness.
