During the final stage, participants will showcase their knowledge and leadership skills through the “Manager’s Role” simulation.
Over the course of three days, 124 participants—those who successfully passed the previous four rounds—will compete for top honors. The final round concludes on July 20, culminating in the announcement of the new winners of the “Yukselish” competition.
