Young Leaders Network 2023

Alberto Granados

Country Manager and Presidente, Microsoft Spain

"The leaders of the future push digitalization and sustainable innovation forward. They are in a zone of constant learning, committed to diversity and inclusion, and they view leadership as an opportunity to generate energy, create clarity and get results".

Andreu Vilamitjana

General Manager, Cisco Systems Spain

“Un líder balancea los aspectos emocionales con los aspectos de consecución de resultados, dirigiendo al equipo con el ejemplo, asegurando el éxito y la visibilidad del equipo en su conjunto y de cada uno de sus miembros. El líder del futuro considerará el negocio pero también la innovación, las relaciones sociales y el impacto social. En un mundo digital, con inteligencia artificial y metaversos se apoyará en la tecnología y la realidad aumentada pero tendrá que ser más humano que nunca antes para crear la diferencia".

José María de la Torre

Third edition's ambassador

"The leaders of the new generations are inclusive, open and patient. They practice active listening, know how to delegate, share and make collegial decisions with the collaboration of their teams, seeking a qualified consensus".
