The reason you need a team

I have two cats. And I keep a phone to call a vet in case of emergency. Many people do this too. I have the phone of an electrician, a plumber, a dentist, a doctor… to call in case of emergency. Many people do this too. I have the phone of the insurance and the AA for car assistance with me. Many people do this too. I have the phone of a lawyer to call in case of emergency. Some people do this too. I have the phone of someone to call in case of emergency for investments and financial doubts or issues. Few people have this. Why? Don’t tell me that money is not important. Or you don’t care. Just stop working and see what happens… Having mentors and advisors, a list of trusted and knowledgeable contacts, standing by is what makes the difference between successful people and people that struggle or make little or no progress. Or do you think that Elon knows about everything? Or Bezitos? Or Gates? Or… whatever. People trying to do things by themselves don’t reach very far. People teaming with knowledgeable people do. “Ahà lo dejo” or “I leave it there”. If you want me as part of your team, book me below.

He appeared right at the beginning. Problem solved. Distraction gone. When I review PPP bids, clients always ask the same question. “Vicente…...
Everyone loves the construction contractor. Big cranes. Huge concrete pours. Drone videos. Beautiful. But in a PPP project… Construction lasts 3 years, maybe 4… except in NZ… around 8 years – don’t ask me why. Operations last 30. And yet, people spend 90% of their time talking about construction. Very clever. And I understand… it’s the place of the big bucks; the ministers’ visit and the Public Relationship paradise. Question 72 of the course below answers a simple question: What is a good...
You hear this word a lot in PPP meetings. Bankable. “This contract must be bankable.” Everyone nods. No one asks the obvious question. What does bankable actually mean? Let me translate. A PPP contract is bankable when a bank can look at it and say: “Fine. If everything goes wrong… we still get our money back.” That’s it. Not innovation. Not sustainability. Not beautiful PowerPoints. Money back. In Question 50 of the course below, I explain what really makes a PPP contract bankable. Because...
