MARIANNA ZANATTA
Hi! I’m Marianna, I observe the world, I share strategies, tactics, tools, life lessons learned, stories that have inspired me.
My passion for communication realized through sport was born more than twenty years ago when working in The North Face EMEA as an athlete team and sport events manager, I realized the great strength of sport in creating a direct emotional connection with its spectating audience.
Commitment and effort, success and failure in sport are simple and perfect metaphors of everyday life, projects and dreams of each of us. In the journey alongside great sportsmen, at some point I opened the doors of storytelling to good stories even beyond sport.
And so Ornitorianna, the platypus, was born.
