My adventure as President of carreñogroup Public Affairs has been exhilarating and is putting my spirit to the test. My previous role at Continental Airlines was developing the management and leadership teams for their role in a global company. I now use those best practices in business development, strategy and branding for small to medium size businesses. I did not enter this venture hoping I would succeed, I approached this venture knowing I had a product and service that would sell.
I believe every life experience is part of a grooming process for something later in life. In the introduction I used the term adventure, because I live my life as one. Using the globe as my classroom for over 30 years and encounters with business owners of different genders, ethnicity's and age groups has taught me lessons on becoming a successful entrepreneur.
These lessons helped me realize that the
Right Stuff isn't about gender or ethnicity, It is about the initial
Dream, the strong
Desire and the unwavering
Dedication to succeed.
