(By Mary Molina and Juan Maqueda) Knock knock… Hello world! History must change not only in Venezuela but everywhere; what Venezuela demonstrates is too drastic. History teaches us that dictatorships thrive in darkness, where complicity and silence are the best allies of oppression. The international community, as well as citizens of countries that value democracy, must act with firmness and clarity. We cannot allow Maduro's tyranny to become a model to follow. Instead, we must work together to ensure that his regime is dismantled and that the Venezuelan people can reclaim their freedom.

By Maqueda and Maurizio: Elegance, technology, and crossing marketing at the Italian Grand Prix. In 2022, the limited edition Ferrari team gear in yellow was a mega success. The crossovers with Ray-Ban, Puma, and other sponsors generated all sorts of products for fans, including, of course, limited edition cars. Ferrari understands that a brand doesn’t merely engage in "branding activities" or marketing actions. Just as the quality a company generates under its branding encompasses culture, marketing, and everything it does, this lesson is clear and inspiring. Here’s why it represents a total shift in the identity of any brand.

(By Marcelo Maurizio together with Maximiliano Rodriguez Otero) An evident symptom of violence is the following responses: “I don’t have time,” “I only listen to micro-summaries of what I need,” “We’ve always done it this way,” “Just tell me concrete things, not nonsense I don’t understand.” In a company where the leader, the board, or the manager yells, or does so very softly but always with negative energy, and in response to new proposals, doubts, inquiries, or complaints says: “That’s just smoke,” “You’re not clear,” “Tell me what one plus one is,” “You’re wasting our time because we’ve always done it this way and we’re not going to change,” “We’ll never be able to do that because it’s crazy,” “I’ll kill you,” “Your idea is stupid, it’s for Japan, not here,” or similar phrases, these are alerts not only of violence but of incompetence (and that’s why there’s so much denial). Violence is not listening; and when we say not listening, we don’t mean not allowing someone to speak or present, but rather “not listening.” Because there was never an intention to move from the established position, anything—even when irrefutable and demonstrating that another possibility exists—will be subjected to a series of destructive actions that imply acts of violence. This is a central insight of all planning today, of all consulting, and in every organizational analysis.

(By Marcelo Maurizio and Maximiliano Rodriguez Otero) Understanding the reality of violence in the exercise of power, as a mask for another significant issue. Violence in the exercise of power, whether verbal or emotional, is a complex phenomenon that manifests in many organizations and teams today. Perhaps the current need for generalist skills and resilience to accept undeniable complex changes makes this more evident. This violence can be exerted by leaders, directors, and also by younger or less experienced members in a workplace environment. Violence in power is the denial (in its various forms) of the other, of facts, of evidence, of ideas, of voices, of other variables and indicators, often using a series of seemingly solid proofs and constructs to justify every confirmation bias. In this context, it is crucial to explore the dynamics of power, communication, and interpersonal interactions from the perspective of neuroscience and neuroliderazgo, as well as the competencies needed to lead and make decisions in 2024, where variables are multidirectional.
