Manager mindset
The foundations for doing superb work.
A 'Servant-NavySeal-MadScientist' kind of leadership. Is that even a real thing? Nope 😅, but it makes me a better manager -everyday.
n.goal
My goal is to bring the best out of everything and every one involved in the project, and make that performance be the fuel your business needs to achieve great goals. I want to be there to provide the support, guidance, motivation, and accountability to be at the top of our game, as well as the ideas, strategies, processes, metrics, tactics, and best practices to maximize every opportunity.
n.focus
Beyond all the planning, scheduling, budgeting, monitoring and effectively communicating things, I'll make my daily obsession to escalate three types of excellence: 1) Creative — To streamline innovation, leverage design and UX principles, and make work fun. 2) Organizational — To put us in a remarkable state of alignment and performance regarding culture, strategies, ambitions, work ethic, and protocols. And 3) Operational — To be intentional, efficient, and consistent at optimizing our systems to produce greatest value, both for our customers and for the business.
My direction style
A simple framework to build great things.
Each project is its own universe and my process and methods adapts with it. Regardless, I always make sure to take time to:

1
Ponder the hypothesis
To carefully understand and articulate the details before hitting the gas.
You have no idea how many times I've exceptionally executed on things that made zero impact just because I rushed into action with fuzzy information and vague goals. But chill, those are lessons learned. Now I'm very intentional about how much grasp I have on the project before kicking it off. I ask more questions, carefully listen to the answers, dig deeper into the details, and critically analyze the entire context to make sure that we are addressing the right things, from the best perspective, and with a solid argument. So, get ready for a 6-feet 6-yo asking lots of 'why' questions while breaking down everything you say to map it on a whiteboard. Don't worry, I know how to make this fun, quick, and super insightful.
