If This Goes On, What Must Come Off?
Recently, I reread Sir David Attenborough’s A Life on Our Planet. I highly recommend it. The perspective offered in each chapter is both enlightening and chilling. The anthropological evolution of society is mirrored beautifully within its pages, and the interaction between humans and the world around us is thoroughly documented by a witness who has […]
The Real Cost of Learning Your Lessons
“Errare humanum est.” To make mistakes is human. A very well-known statement that has been used in all sorts of instances to express that errors do happen. The reason errors occur can relate to many things, depending on each specific case. A world without errors would be a world ruled by a lack of initiative, […]
From Strategy to Tragedy (and How to Make It Back)
Good planning is essential to success.

Adversity as Constructive Force
As mostly all of us do, I invested my time in a lot of things, possibilities, opportunities, options of deals with great outcome, companies, projects reviews, technicalities and so on.

In business and in life, we like to feel informed. I must confess that since 2008 the degree of business and financial information available and gathered has been growing exponentially. We now have on-the-spot updates and financial predictions that are delivered with such convincing aplomb that we believe they must be accurate and based on […]
Return on Time Invested
According to western traditions, we are at the start of a new year. This is a time when all resolutions are forged in purposes and actions. Most for a short while. We focus on what is ahead. Have we learned from the recent past though? For me 2023 has been a fantastic year by many […]
The importance of accurate designation: Process vs Purpose
Recently I have been blessed by the opportunity to be a speaker at several tech conferences and even to be interviewed by tech futurist experts.

It Is Better To Ask For Forgiveness Than Permission – why the thirsty should let the mudded water settle before drinking it.
There was a not-so-distant time where information was the difference between success and mega success.
When Self Doubt Knock – Don’t Open the Door”
Today I was in Town and managed to catch up with a friend. This was an impromptu meeting. By many accounts my friend is a very successful businessman in his own right with a massive set of skills and an even longer list of achievements. He brilliantly sold his business not long ago and after […]
