Doğan TV Holding Chairwoman Arzuhan Doğan Yalçındağ, Nurol Holding Deputy Chairman Oğuz Çarmıklı and Tekfen Holding Founding Chairman Ali Nihat Gökyiğit received leadership awards at the ninth Leadership Summit held in Istanbul yesterday.

Speaking at the event Yalçındağ said leadership is a characteristic that one is born with but develops in life. Female leaders are more perfection-seeking while male leaders are more result-focused, Yalçındağ said during a session with TV programmer Cüneyt Özdemir.

“I would like to mention my mother and father, who raised us with the traditions of Anatolia. A leader should be brave, capable of making different decisions and know when to quit.”

“I hate the word postponing,” said Gökyiğit in a session. “A leader never postpones things but addresses them.” Coşkun Çoroğlu said in his opening speech that the meetings within the scope of the Leadership Summit contributed much to the vision of young leader candidates.
