Efficiency and Optimisation 📈 reduce COSTS, increase PROFITS in a few months with C-Level Executives and Owners 💡 without NEW CLIENTS or heavy restructuring
@OpenAI@w01fe@AndrewMayne Is it possible that Google is plagued with "how can I download ChatGPT invoices" just because finding them it's a quest, your guidelines are obsolete, and ChatGPT itself does not help????
So now it's forbidden to be multilingual, because @YouTube and @instagram and others make shitty AI automatically translate the audio and TOTALLY PAINFUL to find a way to disable this.
Congrats for the "DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION" #YouTube and #Instagram and all other "geniuses"
@SomosABANCA Quizás sean esos dos que han diseñado el sistema de "seguridad" de Abanca, que por tercera vez me ha bloqueado el acceso.
Única manera de desbloquearlo: recibir una llamada.
Porque vuestros clientes no pueden trabajar a nivel internacional o intercontinental.
¡FENÓMENOS!

I can be your right hand as a pathfinder, clearing the blind spots you don’t have the time to explore, and turning them into practical improvements for your people.
How does that sound? Is it something useful in your (or in any) company?
Linkedin says I'm "SMARTER THAN 95% OF CEOs" because I'm good at this?
Unfair. Plus, being "smarter" doesn't mean you do well running a Company.
👇 But there's one truth: 👇
1.000.000 DE EUROS /año:
NEGOCIO NO CERRADO SOLO PORQUE A TUS EMPLEADOS NO LES IMPORTA. 👇 La historia 👇
LO PEOR DE TODO?
Es que nadie lo sabe, ni el Director General, ni el Director Financiero, ni el dueño de la empresa, ni los accionistas.
Y el responsable sigue cobrando tranquilamente su sueldo.
Principio de enero.
Una empresa internacional quiere comprar varios productos.
Gracias a mi red de contactos, encontramos un vendedor en España, pido presupuesto al Director Comercial.
El presupuesto encaja con el cliente, que da tiempo hasta el 20 de ENERO para firmar NDA y cerrar la propuesta formal.
...
ESCASOS SEÑALES DE VIDA.
...
Después de TRES SEMANAS, me contesta que "hoy he enviado el NDA a mi jefe para que lo firmara".
...
Ha pasado otra semana.
Estamos al día 11 de febrero, todavía no sabemos si tienen problemas con alguna cláusula del NDA, si ni lo han mirado, si no le interesa vender (que para un director comercial sería interesante).
🤔
Si algo tan grande ocurre sin que el CEO o el CFO se enteren, imagina CUÁNTAS cosas pasan desapercibidas.
🔴
PERSONAS QUE HACEN NEGOCIACIONES INTERNACIONALES ME DICEN QUE ESTE DESCUIDO BASTANTE FREQUENTE EN ESPAÑA.
Yo me niego a pensar que esta suposición sea verdad.
Y TÚ?

No, they’re not mythical.
They’re cultural. And very real.
6 January is a national holiday in Spain, in observance of the Three Kings.
Bigger than Christmas. Family centred. Deeply heartfelt. Untouchable.
And yet, on that very day, I received requests for a call or meeting or other non-urgent work topics.
So did some of my clients and contacts.
This may look like a small detail.
It's actually a WARNING.
It's a quiet signal: that person/company does not truly understand the culture of the country they are trying to operate or expand in.
When a company ignores the most important cultural day of a country, it usually means:
🔸 They don't understand local decision rhythms
🔸 They confuse availability with commitment
🔸 Relationships remain transactional
🔸 They export headquarters habits and calls it “global”
🔸 They will struggle to build trust, no matter how good the product is
🔸 Execution becomes harder than it should be
International expansion does not collapse in boardrooms.
It bleeds out in details.
Culture is not “soft”.
It's an operating system.
And in Spain, pressing “send” on 6 January is not neutral.
It tells your counterpart exactly how much you don’t know yet.
This detail may sound obvious.
What’s not obvious is how often other "subtle" signals remain unknown.
I support boards in surfacing them.
If you are expanding into Spain or Italy, I don’t help you enter the market.
I help you avoid having to fix it later.

What Does It Mean to Be a T-Shaped #NED?
A T-shaped Non-Executive Director possesses deep expertise in one or more areas (the vertical stroke of the “T”) — Operations, for instance.
But equally important is the horizontal stroke: the ability to engage thoughtfully and strategically across the entire board agenda.
I still remember the first time I heard this expression was when Ezequiel Abramzon ✷ said:
"Giulio is a T-Shaped person".
That sounded weird, until I found out what he meant 😅
Fast-Forward a couple of years, I really believe that is indeed a very appropriate definition - thanks, Ezequiel!
Who are some T-Shaped people around you who can be a sounding board for solving complex problems?
Pablo no entendía las peticiones que le llegaban de los jefes de los distintos departamentos, que a menudo le pedían cosas contradictorias y que no tenían sentido.
Esto le estresaba y, a veces, se sentía inadecuado.
El problema era que había juegos de poder e intereses diferentes; fue fundamental aprender a leer la complejidad y comprender los «MOTIVADORES» de cada persona.
La claridad y el acompañamiento le ayudaron a «soportar» mejor toda esa complejidad y el estrés derivado.
Esto ocurre en muchas, muchísimas empresas; se necesita un enfoque estratégico, pero muchos directivos solo adoptan un ataque frontal....
¿Y tú?

🤔 Can you imagine a meeting where you can be LIBERATED from:
Over-controlled — top-down, rigid, with a few people talking at everyone else… or
Chaotic — open but dominated by a few voices, while most quietly disengage?
A space where everyone has a real voice, ideas flow freely, and yet the group stays focused and purposeful.
👉 That’s the promise of Liberating Structures — small changes in how we meet, think, and decide that unlock collective intelligence.
🔹Liberating Structures provides a toolbox of 30+ facilitation methods that:
🔹Involve everyone simultaneously, not just the loudest voices;
🔹Encourage experimentation and distributed leadership;
🔹Balance freedom with structure;
🔹Allow groups to co-create, decide, and learn together.
I thought that could be a bit idealistic, but in actual fact, it turns out that it's used by UN, NASA, hospitals, schools, and tech firms.
What do you think about the concept developed by @KeithMcCandless and Henri Lipmanowicz?

Core Principles from MANAGEMENT 3.0 by Jurgen Appelo:
Energize People – Understand intrinsic motivation.
Empower Teams – Distribute authority and trust.
Align Constraints – Provide clear boundaries and purpose.
Develop Competence – Support learning and mastery.
Grow Structure – Design adaptive systems and networks.
Improve Everything – Embrace continuous change and feedback.
Basically, people’s motivation, creativity, and collaboration can’t be managed only by command-and-control.
But, in practice, it's often more complicated.

Sociocracy 3.0: utopia or reality?
Example: Consent Decision-Making in a Team
Scenario:
A software development team wants to decide whether to adopt a new issue-tracking tool.
Traditional way
They might vote or let the manager decide.
This can lead to frustration — some people feel overruled, and concerns get ignored.
S3 way — Making decisions through Consent rather than majority vote
🔹Instead of asking “Who agrees?”, the facilitator asks:
“Do you have any paramount objections to trying this proposal?”
Here’s what happens:
🔸Proposal presented — e.g., “Let’s switch to Tool X”
🔸Clarifying questions — anyone can ask for details.
🔸Round of reactions — everyone gives short feedback.
🔸Consent round — each person says if they have an objection and why.
If someone objects (“It won’t integrate with our CI pipeline”), that’s treated as valuable feedback.
The group amends the proposal — maybe they agree to test the tool in a smaller project first.
Once there are no paramount objections, the decision is made.
Result:
Everyone’s concerns are integrated.
The group moves forward faster (no endless debate).
Because consent isn’t “agreement,” decisions can evolve — they review and adapt after the test.
Impact in practice:
Teams report higher engagement and faster implementation because people trust the process and feel heard.
Actually, this "new framework" reminds me of what good Management should look like.
What do you think?
The difficulty is not the ERP per se.
It's the resistance of the people, and trying to do things in the same way as before.
What is key?
I've seen the same in North Africa, Eastern Europe, Southern Europe.
Preparing the people and then implementing new workflows for when the new system is in place.
One of my skills is to do exactly that.
I could be your partner to ensure that the ERP is adopted successfully and happily.
Let's have a call?
