Δημήτρης Παπαπανικητόπουλος, Πρόεδρος Linkage Greece. Συνέντευξη στην Ειρήνη Νικολοπούλου, δημοσιογράφο, παρουσιάστρια της τελετής απονομής των βραβείων Manager of the Year 2022
«Ο θεσμός του Manager of the Year είναι ένας θεσμός που δεν πρέπει να σταματήσει ποτέ γιατί είναι μια γιορτή της επιχειρηματικότητας, της ηγεσίας, του μάνατζμεντ, κερδίζουν οι καλύτεροι, γιορτάζουμε τους καλύτερους. Είναι ένα παράδειγμα για τους νέους μας, αγόρια και κορίτσια, για να μπορούμε να έχουμε ένα φυτώριο ηγεσίας στην Ελλάδα και, γιατί όχι, να γινόμαστε και καλύτεροι άνθρωποι.»

Αγγελίνα Μιχαηλίδου, Γενική Διευθύντρια και Partner, Response:
«Ομολογώ ότι ήμουν fan πάντα αυτού του θεσμού και χαίρομαι που συνεχίζει σε τόσο καλά και άξια χέρια και νομίζω, βλέποντας και το πλήθος των νεώτερων ανθρώπων που βραβεύτηκαν, ότι θα έρθει πια ένα καινούργιο επίπεδο πρόκλησης για τους νεώτερους Έλληνες επαγγελματίες να εξελίσσονται ως μάνατζερς … Είμαι πραγματικά πολύ αισιόδοξη για το μέλλον της επιχειρηματικότητας στην Ελλάδα.»
