From graduating to becoming the country manager at Falabella, I've learned so many valuable things along the way. Today, I want to share with you the five straightforward life rules that have been the secret of my success. 1️⃣ Work hard and give your best. No matter what job I had, I always gave it my all. Whether I was an intern doing small tasks or a country manager handling big projects, I worked hard and did my best. You never know how your efforts will pay off, but they always do in the end. 2️⃣ Know what you're selling: To succeed, you need to really understand what you're selling. I always made sure to learn everything I could about our products, our market, and our customers. This helped me build trust with clients and make good decisions for our company. 3️⃣ Find your own way to lead. In my 20+ years of experience, I've learned that there's no single right way to be a leader. I've had to change my approach based on the people I work with and the situation we're in. The important thing is to give people tasks and trust them to do it well. You help them take responsibility for their work. When you create a team based on trust and accountability, great things happen. 4️⃣ Building strong relationships and people skills has been critical to my success. I've worked hard to improve my people skills and learn how to communicate well with clients, partners, and team members. When challenges come up, like COVID-19 or other crises, having good relationships means everyone can work together towards the same goal. 5️⃣ Have clear goals, and make sure your team understands them. It's my job as a leader to set clear, big goals for our company and make sure everyone knows what they are. Whether it's sales targets, delivery dates, or product quality, I always communicate what we're aiming for and how each person's work fits into the bigger picture. I'm really proud of my journey and the lessons I've learned. These rules have guided me, and I hope they inspire you to follow your own path to success with passion, hard work, and a desire to always keep learning. What life lessons or rules have helped you in your career? Share it in the comments. #inspiration #career #lessons #mindset

NEW: (Translated from original) "The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic (BCRA) has confirmed that companies with pending profit distributions will be able to subscribe to Bopreales. This is expected to begin next week. BCRA’s Communication “A” 7999 states that both companies with pending dividend payments to non-resident shareholders and non-residents who have received dividends in pesos in the country in recent years will be able to purchase these bonds in the primary market.   However, there are some important differences compared to importers. Unlike the latter, new Bopreales buyers will not be able to access the CCL (Contado con Liquidación) to settle 100% of dividend debts. This is due to the difference between the selling price of the bonds and their nominal value (VN). Recall that importers who buy Bopreal do have access to the CCL without affecting their access to the MULC (Mercado Único y Libre de Cambios) to settle their commercial debt, as Bopreales trade below par.   In addition, the BCRA also published Communication “A” 7997, which specifically addresses the purchase of Bopreales by financial institutions with non-resident shareholders.   The next Bopreal auction is scheduled for next week, according to official information provided by the BCRA. Assuming that Series 3 will continue to be offered and that the purchase of the bonds will continue to be subject to the PAIS tax, the implied exchange rate for buying Bopreales in the primary market with pesos and then selling them in the secondary market with dollars would be around 1,300 pesos, which is slightly more than 200 pesos above the CCL.   It will be interesting to see if companies with pending dividends are willing to accept these levels or if they prefer to wait. The financial market situation may influence their decisions." https://lnkd.in/etEFvHxT https://lnkd.in/eT-srV3T #bopreal #debtcrisis

Daniel Blandón the Co-founder and Managing Partner at Simma Capital. In 2014, Daniel and a group of friends started an investment group called INVX as a side project. They shared a vision of participating in the transformative era of emerging technology-led opportunities in Latin America, which was still in its early stages. This vision laid the foundation for Simma Capital. By learning from the industry, recognizing potential, validating hypotheses, building a network, and observing interest in startups among people who didn't know how to invest or couldn't diversify, Simma Capital was born to be bigger and more impactful. Today, Simma Capital manages two funds that invest in scalable, early-stage ventures founded by exceptional teams: Simma Ventures: Multi-industry focus. Bios Ventures: Focus on food, agriculture, and pets. Throughout their journey, Simma Capital has invested in over 35 companies, including Rappi, Bold.co, Simetrik, Lumu Technologies, Melonn, Bacu, among other top tiers. Their mission is to empower entrepreneurs to reach their full potential and reshape the future of Latin America through technology.
