What was your most important lesson in 2023?

Life is not a straight line and sometimes you need to unlearn things in order to make a step forward. It is important to accept it in a working environment as a manager or partner/parent at home.

What global trend will shape 2024?

For sure I must point out artificial intelligence as breaking technology and trends. The level of adoption AI received is insane. And we must take into account that the real solutions are not yet in place. I am really looking forward to new business models, apps, and services that will be developed on AI.

What will be the most key skill in 2024?

In the world of huge information flow, we must separate the ones with added value from average noise. The key is to handle the important ones and try to absorb them as much as possible. True winners are the ones who can soak up information and new learning exponentially.

Tips and tricks to help personal/business growth succeed in 2024:

Try to set up a daily routine and execute it consistently. It will pay off big time.

What is your top resolution for 2024?

Try to be ahead of everyone, no matter the environment. In order to adapt to different situations, transformation should be as efficient as possible. It is the key to get a much needed advantage which should result in 1+1=11.
