They say you can tell a lot about a person by their shoes but can you guess their job title? 👀 Last week at Sifted Summit, the Wise Business team tried something a little different - guessing people’s professions based purely on their shoes. Safe to say, first impressions are only half the story. 👟 From CEOs to UX designers, every pair had a story to tell and we loved hearing them 😁 Thank you to everyone who agreed to be a part of this - James Ring, Peter Machona, Shahnaz Maktabi and Jared Deas.
