Dear Friends, queridos amigos
It is my
real pleasure to share with you the video of an amazing opportunity I had to
speak at the headquarters of the United Nations last June. I was one of the
founding members of the Global Economic Initiative where 30 entrepreneurs from
seven different countries gathered to speak and discuss about some the issues
that are affecting the world of business, education and economics today. It was
an incredible event.
My message
was that regardless of our circumstances, you need to be positive, be an
optimist and have a strong personal motivation. Once you have these
key-ingredients, you will be able to become a better entrepreneur and business
owner, have more clarity and see things in a much better way.
We cannot
leave everything that needs to be fixed to the governments we have in many
countries, particularly in Latin America. This is why I call out to the local and
regional entrepreneurs to:
a) Be the ‘change factor’ we need
to be and want to become;
b) Generate the initiatives that are
needed to empower our people and our
teams – basically through training and education; and,
c) Guide our countries to a higher level of growth and development.
We can do
this and much more form the private sector and need to start working on these
initiatives today, as taking ACTION today is a must.
Thanks to
the National Association of Experts,
Writers and Speakers and to the International
Entrepreneur Foundation for such an incredible invitation to speak at this
life-changing event on this magnificent institution in New York.
