Grateful to all!

I have had the pleasure of working with great people that have taught me a lot throughout my career.

• Some taught me the art of grit and what it takes to drive a startup or develop an idea into a deliverable/shippable artefact.
• Others taught me the importance of workflows and predictable inputs/outputs.
• Others helped me summarise my words and build understandable stories.
• Others helped me develop business and financial acumen.
• Others kicked my butt until I became a spreadsheet ninja, analysing data and locating patterns that supported better decision-making.
• Others implanted in me the value of partnerships and channel distribution.
• Others, the art of dealing with the hard truth about hard things in life and business.
• Others, how to laugh and wake up constantly with a smile no matter what.
• So many more.

At the beginning of 2021, I set myself an objective to share many of my lessons learned. I am advancing in this objective with this blog and sharing valuable materials with you.
