I'm a CIO, Business Transformation and IT Strategist
ABOUT
Three pillars support my purpose: Trust, Cross vision & impact, and Profitability.
I enjoy building something out of nothing. I love passionate teams completely focused on a core mission or an idea. Teams that dream big but are starting small and focused. Teams whith cross-thinking and who believe matrix relations are more important than the nodes which they stand.
And you know what ? Some people boast of their accomplishments, I am proud of where and with whom I have worked. A lot of my work has been expired, but not companies and people

TESTIMONIALS
What my colleagues are saying about me?
"Juan Luis ha sido una persona clave en el proceso de Transformación de TITAN. No sólo en la parte de Tecnologías y Sistemas de Información, la que le es “propia”, sino también, y lo que es más importante, de manera transversal con el resto de funciones orgánicas esenciales de la compañía.."
Marcos Torras
CEO Duscholux Spain
"Juan Luis es una de esas personas que te caen bien desde el primer día, y cuanto más le conoces, la cosa aumenta. He tenido la oportunidad de trabajar con él en varios proyectos y siempre he visto cómo se entrega con pasión a todo lo que hace, en las reuniones aporta con sus preguntas reflexivas y concretas cosas en las que nadie ha pensado, pero es necesario hacerlo. Siempre dispuesto a ayudar y siempre con una sonrisa. Alguien con quien merece la pena trabajar, y disfrutar!"
