I met Bob Wollheim in Sao Paulo working on a project for Mondelez. Bob is an Internet pioneer in Brazil and a seasoned entrepreneur. He is also a fellow author and with ignorance, I’m going to assume the word “Empreender” means entrepreneur and not Emperor, although if it were the latter, would he be wearing clothes? Knowing Bob’s substance, I think the answer is a resounding yes! I’m sure we will discuss the state of both the personal and business landscape in Brazil due to COVID. Learn more ab...

Perhaps I should skip the first two topics and just FOCUS on the third one?! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone....

Augie Ray is a ray of light. I mean it. He’s super smart, insightful but moreover the word I would use to describe him is “clarity” – clarity of thought and the honest articulation thereof. We'll discuss the dangers and risk of unfounded optimism (a counter argument perhaps to a show that’s all about hope, positivity and optimism?) Oh and of course, there’s the Customer Experience angle, which is kind of how I even know Augie! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Today we discussed talent innovation, maintaining a positive mental outlook during a pandemic, remote work as a long term trend or quite frankly, anything extempor...
