Grow Your Leadership Mindset

The Key to Sustainable Profitable Growth in a Fast-Moving World

1-hour duration

Global business leaders call on Carlos when they get stuck. Their back story runs to a fairly universal pattern. Cut away the details and it goes something like this. They are frustrated because their business is failing short of its commercial potential. Oh, sure, it’s surviving, maybe even growing, marginally, but high-sustained exponential growth is not happening. These leaders keep bumping their heads against an invisible growth ceiling. They’ve gotten themselves locked into a low-growth pattern and they don’t know why. No matter what they try, they can’t reach escape velocity in their business. Can you relate? Are you seeing a similar pattern in your business?

Now here is the amazing thing. These leaders who need to get unstuck, they’re located all over the world. They’re in every niche of every industry you can think of, every size business, old industries and new, it doesn’t matter, because nine times out of 10 the root cause of their slow growth can be found on this chart. What the chart is saying is that there is a way to change your results if you change the way you think. Conversely, if you don’t change the way you think, then no matter what you do, you’re not likely to change your results much at all.

So, listen up. In this video blog, you’ll get to eavesdrop as Carlos shows to his mentee John, a Chief Executive Officer, how to use this chart to locate the key growth limiting barriers in his business and how to knock over those barriers once and for all.

That is one of, if not the most, important mentoring session Carlos had. Why? Because, Carlos is giving you the secret of leading companies - in other words, why they succeed in a fast-moving world.

Changing the Seen & Shaping the Unseen

What They Don’t Teach You in Business School Series, Part I

31-minutes duration

In Part I of this series, Carlos will cover the importance of developing business awareness to succeed in a fast-moving world. Are you aware of what might be in your way? Without awareness, there is no choice; as a result, bad things happen!

In Part II, you’ll learn there’s one critical factor that management needs to focus on first, and most, if you want to thrive in today’s complex and competitive world. In fact, it’s probably the single biggest determinant of success or failure in business today: You must manage with purpose and principles, leading with a shared and committed vision for your business. Carlos explains why, and how to accomplish this. 

Finally, in Part III, Carlos will introduce the unique and proven Strategic Wealth Creator Systems™, a step-by-step process he has continuously refined over 34 years as a CEO of multinational companies, later consulting and facilitating groups to design unique business models and competitive strategies.   

Let’s get started, first, with Part I:

Management at most companies today is in denial. Thus, management is short sighted by not having the correct information at hand; managers don’t know what is happening and how today’s events would be reflected in the future. They don’t know if everything they do will work, why do they still do it? Because their decisions are based on wishful thinking.

In business, the most damaging attack is always self-inflicted. That is where the law of incompetence comes into play. It’s a thought bias in which low-ability individuals suffer from the illusion of superiority, mistakenly over-estimating their abilities. So, awareness is essential to succeed in a fast-moving and complex world.

Awareness involves knowing what happens around you and your business. When you and your key people acquire awareness, your business suddenly comes with new ideas, and innovations are constantly generated.

So, listen up. In this video blog, you’ll get to eavesdrop as Carlos shares the 6-steps required for higher awareness with his mentee John, a Chief Executive Officer.
