#43 Reverse Mentoring: Was GenZ und Boomer voneinander lernen können – mit Anastasia Barner

In dieser Folge von „What the Finance!“ spricht Laura Maria Weber mit Anastasia Barner über Reverse Mentoring und die Vorurteile gegenüber der GenerationZ.

Anastasia Barner on Instagram: "💭Little girls don’t dream about spreadsheets. Anzeige They dream about ball gowns. And I found the perfect ball gown at @uncleandnephew_berlin Ever since I was small, I wanted that moment: the dress, the lights, the music, the feeling of walking into a room and just knowing: tonight is magic. Like every girl, I imagined a grand ballroom, a prince waiting somewhere across the floor, and that once-in-a-lifetime fairytale spin. Fast forward. I didn’t walk into a royal palace. I walked into the @vbki_berlin Ball. No prince. Just CEOs, founders, investors and conversations about markets instead of magic. But here’s the plot twist: I’ve been in economics since I was young. While others were collecting fairytales, I was collecting business ideas. While some dreamed of castles, I was building strategies. And somehow that became my version of a crown. And standing there at the VBKI Ball, in this dress, under those lights I did feel like a princess. This wasn’t a classic ball with a prince. It was an economics ball and I earned my invitation. So here’s your reminder: You don’t have to wait for a fairytale. You can build one. And sometimes the most powerful princess in the room is the one who understands compound interest. ✨ #vbki #ballgown #dressedup #gala #ball"
