ABOUT ILIJANA VAVAN
I have almost 30 years of the international experience in general management, technology, and cybersecurity with a strong track record in achieving and exceeding revenue and KPI goals. Having lived and worked in several countries, I am a true multicultural executive who fully understands diverse cultures, values, and needs.I am a leader that always takes care of people who work for me and for that reason they go the extra mile. I am decisive, action and goal oriented. I strive toward excellence. I believe excellence is a permanent process, once achieved it can already be improved so I keep improving as my environment and conditions of work change. I believe that impossible is possible. I seek and always find a way to achieve my goals. I am analytical and process oriented and plan before I act. I collect ideas from others and make the best one’s work for my team and company. I empower others to excel in what they do. I always appreciate others and never take credit for their achievements, but I do take responsibility for eventual failure, although failure is not an option for me, I tend to correct my errors in time and manage to get successful results in the end.I have been quoted or featured in many major publications, media outlets, and television programs including German Handelsblatt, Spiegel, IT Business, UAE Gulf News, Telecom Review, Security MEA, French Global Security Magazine, EKapija, N1 TV, Hayat TV, PRVA TV, and many others. I have also been a keynote speaker at many conferences within the technology industry. Passionate about sports, I was a main driver of the partnership between the German football club Eintracht Frankfurt and Kaspersky lab. I am also an active advocate to attract more women into the IT industry and leadership positions.
