Markus Gaganis

Sometimes it's the places that give your life a twist. For Markus, the Butzweiler Hof in Cologne is such a place - the first civilian airport in the city, in the 1930s the "Air Cross of the West". From the end of the 1960s, the German Armed Forces used the site as a power driving training centre - and Markus obtained his truck driving licence here in 1995 as a conscript. This event led to the Sauerlander-born driver discovering the city of Cologne for himself and finally deciding to study business administration at Cologne University. Besides his studies at the WiSo faculty he starts working for GAMBIT as a temporary employee. In 2001, after his graduation as Diplom-Kaufmann, this finally turned into a permanent position as SD consultant. In the meantime Markus is in charge of the Sales, CRM and Service department at GAMBIT and works as a project manager. "To learn every day and to courageously and persistently open up new topics - I consider this idea of continuous learning to be very important, also and especially in our job", says Markus. But this insight has less to do with a place. Markus' current role model is the learning curve that his one-year-old daughter is currently following as she discovers the world for herself.
