Do you want to know a secret?
I have never worked at a company such as Tango/04. I mean, such as the company I envisioned to create, back in 1991.
Children rapidly find a public figure to take as example when they start playing a sport. But it is much more difficult when there is no model to imitate. Even in life, in general, it is difficult to find far-reaching ethical models. But at least it is easy to find antimodels.
My antimodel were the monopolistic corporations of that time, such as Telefonica and Iberia, the Spanish phone and airline companies, whose customer service, back then, seemed to be led by highly sadistic people.
I wanted to work for a company that was just the opposite. And, luckily, we eventually found our way.
Well, soon I will reveal here the secret that made us compete and thrive in the tough IT market for more than 25 years. The ultimate key factor of our success, that is.
Just bear with me a bit more.
And when we say there will be surprises this Friday at the European Monitoring Symposium, we mean exactly that. But here is a little teaser.
Miss it at your own risk.
Where have I been? Quite busy, after the (awesome) inauguration of our new offices, preparing the super ultra mega wonderful amazing Tango/04 Monitoring Symposium 2014.
(You’ve already saved the date, right? May 23th in Sitges, a beautiful town near Barcelona).
But before talking about it, some photos of our beautiful new offices. Â
And yes, we do have a gym at our offices. 🙂
(Thanks to the great Egue y Seta studio for the spectacular project).
Where have I been? Learning with leading entrepreneurs in Manila, Hamburg, Dublin, working with our talented team in both Barcelona and Buenos Aires, observing real-time monitoring in China (more about this soon), visiting the Maldives (hey, I need some rest from time to time) and above all involved in the phenomenal transformation of Tango/04. Yes, what we are cooking up with the new Knowledge Modules is nothing short of revolutionary (more about this quite soon, too). And recently, we moved to beautiful and more spacious offices in Barcelona, too. And that’s the point of this post. You are invited to come to our inauguration on Thursday, February 13. Don’t miss it. Just please contact your Tango/04 rep before we run out of space! It will be wonderful to give you a hug then. More details here. See you soon!
Some of you assumed that the new Monitoring Blog would replace this blog. No, not really. The Visibility Blog still has lots of things to say, and—hopefully—contribute to the quest to achieve Corporate Visibility, and more agility, and more happiness for you and the whole world, so please come back next week to continue this lovely conversation.
How about learning more about your users’—or customers’—hidden motivations and getting them to prioritize everything they want from you in detail? How about creating a proven path to success and removing all the things that are stopping you the most from getting there? How about doing all of this by playing games?
Interested? Oh, let’s play then. See you on Wednesday.
Here’s the solution to the problem of two posts ago: Which number follows in the series 10, 9, 60, 90, 70, 66? Continue reading
I was lucky enough to be able to listen to Jim Collins yesterday at the Growth Summit. Jim ended by sharing some valuable personal tips, which I am happy to share with you, fresh out of his mouth. Continue reading
