look, surely you will have heard
tell the entrepreneurs or if you
they are businessmen then to do business
in Colombia it is very hard
and that is despite the difficulties that
we manage to get ahead
how were our
presenters of today who also
They are one of my idols because my story
Today is a little different I come to
tell them how those difficulties that we
presents colombia we have made a
stronger company and I want to take them in
a trip in time and that we place ourselves
in the years 2001 2002 2003 and I do not know if
you remember what it was like in that
Colombia moment I do not know if you
remember the miraculous catches of the
ingrid kidnapping walnut pump
Betancourt and a lot of people
more than that amount of burned trucks
on the roads Colombia was living a
very strong very active war
and my partner if I came up with the
worst idea
we never really did a business
plan we do not think about the market size
we did not think about what the risks were and
We decided that we wanted to take
colombia ‘ to children of schools of bogota
to remote areas so they knew
and then you must be saying how
ok if the world theory
suddenly my job was to
get to schools where the rectors and
where dads to tell them do not look
they worry that the guerrilla checkpoint
that there was in Saint Augustine and they took it away
last week then let’s move on
and there is no one left and there is no
problem and the miraculous catch that was in
the Medellin road that passes only
night and we are going to spend pure
midday
then there is no problem
neither and and day by day I was
telling them what it was like to go to their
sites that touched knowing the amazons and
It was up to the guajira and there was
know san antero córdoba
Y
you must be being good as
did these people so that their
company has been a venture that
well that is more or less successful
three factors are the ones that I think
They helped make this company
front and that’s what I want to share with
you today
The first is passion and
perseverance
we may have been crazy
but we were convinced that the
Bogota children especially and
Colombian children living in the
major cities had to know
your country we can not believe that
those children all know miami new
york but I have no idea where de san
antero córdoba and that later they are going to be
the next entrepreneurs next
entrepreneurs the next ministers and not
know what that country is that they have to
govern or to which they have to change
the course then we really were
convinced that this and we are
convinced that what we do
changes history the country and what
we build our country because we are
convinced that when a child from bogota
who moves between the school and his house
or your club
leaves for santa sierra nevada
marta and climbs lost city and talks
with the guides and learn about san antero
córdoba and also knows the tatacoa and
villanueva understands a little more
of the country where you are
what happens is that that passion was not
enough because that passion is the
that gives us and perseverance that desire
but we needed something that was a
little bit more the sustenance something that was
Well, ready, I’d like the idea, but there’s
behind
and then we had to go from passion to
the operation and we had to become a
operational company and then the
operation is the second most important
that has made our company come out
forward we became robust
operationally we started to have
24 hours doctors for all of our
satellite tracking programs for
know where all children are in
every moment a search service and
rescue that makes it possible for a
helicopter and rescue a child in the
half of the jungle satellite phones
to never lose communication and day
to day our operational department
I was thinking how to do to have
the operational standards
highest level
we have contacts with the forces
armed to know if the sites are
We warn the police of
road when we are passing and
we are strengthening all the time
so then the dads and the
ok say schools already convinced us
with the idea that these have passion
but we believe them is that effectively
they’re going to make some trips safe
and it started to work and we started
work and we start making trips with
children and we started showing you this country
but something happened to us that did not happen
It was so cool and it’s that we started
Acacho know really well yes and
we were like working but it is that
doing business in colombia is very hard and
so then it became our
typical phrase damn country country damn
because it is that then the
news of flying again on the
lane of 30 and of the cerrejón la
damn country and it’s canceled forget about the
guaira and then they burned again
truck on the road to the huila and
and then we can not go the attacked and LLN
and made an armed stoppage on the roads of
boyacá and we can no longer go to moor
is damn country and then all day
in the office we were all trying
to get it out but damn country
and suddenly we are one thing that
the sky fell us fell from the sky and
I would say that is what changed the
Our company’s history for
always and literally fell the sky
phenomenon of the girl of 2011
that is the road that connected day
with Bogota and underneath all that is the
Savanna University
miren was flooded colombia was flooded
colombia in 2011 it rained Augustin
goás and reports that it is the phenomenon of
strongest girl of the last 100 years
more than 2000 reported floods more
of 700 landslides in different ways 9
villages had to be changed from
site because the rivers are the
they took and as it started to rain then
one by one they all fell down
our programs 90 percent
and at that time we said ok this is already
a subject not only of the road of
cerrejón we had two options or follow
saying damn country and reality is
that we had very clear that
is that in a country like Colombia the
phenomenon of the girl generates that in a
developed country because it rains and already
and the option was to remain damn
country we had no other option
that was the option that we take that is a
option was totally opposite and it was
to say that it rains is our fault
and we decided that the rain was going to be
our fault and that if it rained and fell
our programs was our fault
something as ridiculous as saying that the
rain is one’s fault because then the
reality is that if I do not control
I’m not sampedro
I do not control the weather but the rain
It is my fault
and that’s a way of seeing life and that
it was the moment in my that our
company changed from the operation to the
mentality and that is the third thing the
third factor that I want to share with
you are the mentality that rain is
our fault comes from a term in
psychology they call control locus and
the locus of control is the perception that
we have human beings about a fact
is not what is really happening is
what I think is happening and one
may have an internal control locus
or an external control locus if one
has an external locus of control all
what happens is the fault of something external and
I will always have the perception of
which is someone else’s fault then
When I arrive late it is the fault of the trancón and
the citizens we blame
always to the mayor of turn and always the
guilt is from someone different then
when my relationships do not work
sentimental always the fault is the
another and when I crack in the partial is
blame the teacher or when they lower me to my
girl in the partial is the teacher’s fault
because my daughter studied
obviously it’s the teacher’s fault
and the fault is that of next door
the internal control locus but the other
side it says otherwise I am
guilty of everything that happens to me so be it
ridiculous
I am guilty of having arrived late
because knowing that there is a traffic jam
I figured out with more time I’m the
responsible for a relationship
sentimental does not work for me because then
the reality is that something something had to
have done to make it work better
I am responsible for knowing that if the
teacher is the teacher who rafa all
I have to study a little more
and I decide to blame everything
what’s happening to me
it is proven that the people
companies and even countries that have
high internal control locus are more
successful because they have the ability to
prevent knowing that everything is going
to pass is their fault or they have the
ability that when something happens to them is
to say that I could have done
so that will not happen and that could
do so that I do not happen again in
instead of blaming the external thing what
which is external then I do not have
no chance to change it
and then the rain to return with our
story continued
2011 was extended until 2012 followed
raining but already in nova we were
seeing the different things we already
we were at that moment knowing that if
it was raining about the programs it was fault
our and then we decided to change
our circulars and put umbrellas and
ponchos sueded rubber boots
change campsites by hotels and
we started
and just like the rain they have come
other things has come more war has
come chikungunya has come the cica and
it’s our fault
and if the programs fall down that’s why
those effects is our fault and the
people who come to work now what
first that they learn is that in our
company we blame ourselves
of everything and they will never see us say that
is that the parents do not give
circulars then we make them videos
because if they do not read them it’s our fault
and in that way although it is a little bit more
difficult we are responsible for everything
What happens to us is a way of seeing life
we have the worst idea in the world
and the theory of the world we could take
forward and nowadays not only
traveled in Colombia but we see
More than 18 countries open offices in the
USA
We are traveling with one of the
most important schools on the planet
taking children to know places that do not
we could have imagined trips to
morocco to tri lanka to malawi to cuba
Galapagos every week we have
children traveling and knowing different
places and why we did it because
colombia made us stronger first
passion gave us the passion to say
We need these children to know their
country and that would not have happened to us in a
country that was not Colombia because in the
other countries if you can travel and in
this not
we need to become good
operationally and become good
operationally it was to ride some
expeditions in a country at war that does not
we would have had to do if we did
travel in a perfect country and the reality
is that we had that operation
do so robust that when we get to
other countries we had the standards
highest operatives in the market because
nobody else plans trips for a country in
war and gave us a mentality a
mentality that we use today in
our daily life and in our work
all the time and it’s what I want
also give them today depends
of each of you because to
we are called the war the winter
the cica for you can be called your
teacher her boyfriend the different dollar
problems that you will have in your
business depends on each one if they want
blame everything that is
happening or if they want to be the
that control the situation many
Thank you
