Change can happen to you. If you are one of those that think that a person cannot change… go to the ophthalmologist, you need a review. If you are one of those that think that YOU can’t change and grow… there is a bottom that says unsubscribe. Please click. Change can be fast. Change can also be permanent. Vinh Giang, a raising start in communication, says that “don’t be so attached to who you are in the present, that you don’t give the future version of you a chance”. And he is so right. We are attached to our habits, even if we know that they are bad. To our friends, even if they are toxic. To our city, even if we know there is no great future there. To our routines, Netflix series, and so many other things… You know the quote. It’s crazy to do exactly the same and waiting for different results. Change can happen to you, but you need to want it.

They are the ones studying the repeated mistakes. Once you recognise the pattern, you stop being another consultant with opinions. You become...
Some time ago I talked about a kind of message. One like this one: "It’s interesting what you say, I even read you every day, but I would never buy anything from you because I don't believe I can learn what you know without going through what you've been through." OMG… And then, you wonder why there are adults that cannot tie their shoes… or get any success in life. I'll tell you something crazy: knowledge can be recorded. And another: it can be transmitted. And the last one: whatever you...
Most contractors enter a negotiation with the wrong assumption. They think: “The agency has the money. The agency has the power. The agency has the contract. So the agency has all the leverage.” Not in their dreams… In PPPs and major infrastructure projects, agencies also carry something very heavy: Loss aversion. They do not want a project failure.
