About this ebook

The content of “No mas Pálidas. Cuatro Actitudes para el Exito” was developed after many years of attempting to shape the organizational culture of the teams that I had the honor of managing. After investigating and studying management, leadership and organizational change, and observing many people that I had the chance to work with, I prepared a speech in which I wanted to summarize the necessary conditions to meet the increasingly challenging goals we faced.
The material of the speech grew to the point that it became a conference that I dictated rigorously once every trimester to new employees. It became part of our induction program; a way of creating and fostering our company culture. We called this meeting kickoff. This session would begin with my conference and would follow with presentations from our managers, who would describe all the areas of the company. I sharply remember telling new employees that we were in the business of “helping customers achieve their goals through technology solutions”, and that technology would change every single minute. The role of the managers that would present after my speech would tell them to get used to change—or even better, to provoke change. But that was not my mission at that session. Instead, I would tell them about those things that were not going to change: the values and attitudes we needed to demonstrate if we wanted to be successful.
I later was invited in many opportunities to give that speech to other companies and nonprofit organizations, young entrepreneurs, etc., both in Uruguay and abroad. In 2009 I was convinced by writer-journalist Carlos Pacheco, and the Xn team, to develop my ideas into a book.
The project was approved by Xn Publishing, the contents and publishing division of Xn Partners, and soon a dedicated team was appointed to complete it.
Carlos Pacheco, Julio Martinez, Magdalena Ruiz, Fabian Baliño, and Diego Blixen formed the team that made this publication a reality.
Special recognition goes to Carlos, who, years before the idea even existed, offered to write down the contents of my speeches, believing they needed more diffusion.
To Fabián, who helped us with a large part of the research, Magdalena in the beginning and Diego in the latter stages, who made the publication of this book a possibility.
This English version was possible thanks to several friends who took valuable personal time to review, comment and suggest improvements to the first version.
First of all, Diego Riet, who was the first to ask me to translate it into English. Diego, who works for Microsoft and lives in Seattle, Washington, had read the Spanish version, and told me that the book had had an important influence in his professional career. He offered himself to help me in any way to have the English version completed. Diego asked Jeannie Peha who, as a native English speaker, put her personal touch. Silvia Evia, who I had the pleasure to work with for many years and was one of the great examples of the attitudes described in this book is a passionate reader and knows me very well, so she was able to add a lot of value.
And finally, a very, very special thanks go to Fernando Baliño who took the job of making the full original translation which was a huge task. Since he knows me very well, he knew exactly the message I was trying to convey. He worked around Spanish expressions that are very difficult to translate to English. He even rewrote and improved certain parts. He also contributed re-designing the new cover. So, my most profound gratefulness to him.
