PALACIOS-VALDERRAMA

ORGANIZATIONS WERE CREATED TO FIND WAYS TO IMPROVE THE WORLD. THROUGH THE INTERSECTION OF INNOVATION, STRATEGY, AND SUSTAINABILITY WE CAN SOLVE SOME OF THE MOST CHALLENGING PROBLEMS WE FACE TODAY.

MY PURPOSE IS TO HELP ORGANIZATIONS RECOGNIZE INDIVIDUAL AND COLLECTIVE ACTION AS OPPORTUNITIES TO CREATE CHANGE THROUGH INFLUENCE, GIVING AGENCY AND VOICE.

WITH A STRONG MULTICULTURAL BACKGROUND, HAVING LIVED IN COLOMBIA, BRAZIL, THE USA, THE NETHERLANDS, AND SPAIN, ALONG WITH MY EXPERIENCE IN BOTH THE NON-PROFIT AND PRIVATE SECTORS I LOOK AT PROBLEMS FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES, FINDING OPPORTUNITIES AND CONNECTIONS.

I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION, IDENTITY AND REPRESENTATION IN BUSINESS, BEHAVIORAL ECONOMICS, EDUCATION AS A TRANSFORMATIONAL TOOL, AND SYSTEMATIC CHANGE.
