| Data Literacy for Business Leaders Part 2 | 22 Dec 2022 | 00:05:15 | |
Everyone must understand data and its value as part of building a new culture. Promoting data literacy in the organization starts with culture. Organizations need to establish data-first cultures that encourage the use of data, with strong support for using facts in decision-making and a culture that celebrates curiosity and critical thinking. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Data Literacy for Business Leaders Part 1 | 15 Dec 2022 | 00:05:56 | |
Information is more and more valuable, meaning that for any leader and organization that wants to win in the digital age, it is necessary to learn how to use information so that more people in the organization can access it and know what to do with the data to make decisions. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Business Model - Customer Obsession Part 2 | 08 Dec 2022 | 00:05:42 | |
A very valid question would be how is obsessing about the customer different from what many companies are doing to show genuine interest in fulfilling customer needs. One difference is the level of actions taken outside their comfort zone, the amount of risk they are willing to take, and the capital investments they make to deliver value to the customer and anticipate their needs. In addition, because this philosophy is established in a digital ecosystem, it allows Amazon to have relevant metrics at the click of a button, enabling them to make more in-depth decisions without becoming slow to do so. Amazon's relentless drive to invent dramatic new ways to delight customers never stops. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Business Model - Customer Obsession Part 1 | 01 Dec 2022 | 00:03:58 | |
Michel de Montaigne, a writer in the Renaissance, said, "Obsession is the source of genius and madness." There is a fine line that separates one from the other, which is why it is often considered a negative word. For all the adverse effects it generates when it becomes madness. However, it is equally powerful when focused on creativity and innovation. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Keys to Excellence - Strengthen your Strengths | 17 Nov 2022 | 00:03:56 | |
When you strengthen your strengths, you have the potential to achieve excellence. The cult of weaknesses is often promoted, where we are supposed to focus on them. Depending on what we want to achieve in our life, it may be essential to level specific weaknesses so that they are within an area of optimal competence. But the focus should be on bringing your strengths to the point of excellence to create synergies that promote high-impact results. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| In Search of Excellence - The Difference Between Stress and Performance Pressure | 05 Nov 2022 | 00:07:25 | |
In this Sebastián Meléndez talks about The Difference Between Stress and Performance Pressure Managing stress and pressure effectively is a must-have trait in a business leader. We want to work with people who are good stress managers; we want people who can deliver when it matters most. For these reasons, you must perform well under pressure in today's fast-paced world of change. Many people think that stress and pressure are the same things. Even in academic literature, the terms are often incorrectly used interchangeably, sometimes in the same paragraph. Understanding the differences between stress and performance pressure is a prerequisite for learning to do your best when it matters most. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com | |||
| Reversible Decisions - Move Fast, Make Mistakes Fast and Learn Fast From Your Actions | 03 Nov 2022 | 00:04:55 | |
In this Sebastián Meléndez talks about Reversible Decisions. Reversible decisions are used to eliminate indecision and increase the speed of decision-making. The goal of decision-making is not to make the decision itself but to generate the desired result in the shortest possible time and in the right way. To improve the speed of decision-making, we must make a distinction between reversible decisions and those that are irreversible. One of the biggest challenges in decision-making is the anxiety generated by the consequences we associate with them. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com | |||
| How to Make Good Decisions Under Pressure for Business Leaders | 27 Oct 2022 | 00:04:05 | |
In this Sebastián Meléndez talks about How to Make Good Decisions Under Pressure for Business Leaders. Business Leaders work in a fast-paced, results-driven, fast-paced, fast-changing environment full of unforeseen events. In such an environment, it is to be expected that sooner or later, an unforeseen event, emergency, or disaster will arise that forces the executive to make decisions under pressure. The best decisions tend to be those that have been analyzed in advance. A situation has been analyzed that could happen and that if mishandled would magnify the negative impact of the disaster. That is why emergency or evacuation plans are made. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| In Search of Excellence - Performing Under Pressure Part 1: Key Concepts | 28 Sep 2022 | 00:06:03 | |
In this episode Sebastián Meléndez talks about In Search of Excellence - Performing Under Pressure Part 1: Key Concepts In our fast-paced world, where we are connected to work for long hours, and immediate communication is expected, pressure is almost unavoidable and, in many cases, exponential. We all experience extreme pressure in our lives, moments where we have to deliver results or suffer the consequences. For most of us, these moments have a strong emotional impact. Pressure is the enemy of success: it undermines performance, it sets us up to fail, and management leaders increase their likelihood of making bad decisions. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader#Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||

| Keys to Excellence - The Heart of a Champion | 28 Jul 2022 | 00:05:59 | |

It is a quality of the mind, a mental determination, an attitude that turns a man or woman into someone who goes above and beyond to achieve great things in all areas of life. One of the essential characteristics of a champion's heart is this mental attitude that refuses to give up, no matter the circumstances. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader#Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| 5 Habits of Excellent Business Leaders | 16 Jul 2022 | 00:10:15 | |
In this episode Sebastián Meléndez talks about 5 habits of ecellent business leaders. Our habits define us and shape our lives.

While a harmful habit can harm your progress and adversely influence your lifestyle, a positive habit can drastically improve it. It can bring positivity, possibilities, progress, health, wealth, abundance, happiness, love, and success to your life. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader#Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Expect to Win Every Day | 21 Jun 2022 | 00:05:41 | |
Every leader must develop the EXPECTATION to win. Expecting to win is a compelling mental position and is higher than the desire to win because it contains a firm conviction that WHAT IS DESIRED WILL HAPPEN. Most people doubt their abilities and give up on their dreams when faced with adversity. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader#Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Conflict Management in Virtual Teams | 09 Jun 2022 | 00:08:16 | |
In this video Sebastián Meléndez talks about how to manage conflict in virtual teams. Conflict is an unavoidable feature of all workgroups. No one is immune; a conflict will occur; you need to know what to do when it happens. Even more, critical if your team is virtual. Given the complex dynamics of virtual teams, understanding and managing conflict becomes a significant challenge. Competition can be both constructive and destructive. When team members present different views on the activity and contribute positively to decision making, it leads to helpful conflict. Deadly conflict occurs when group members doubt the intentions behind the difference of opinion.

| Learn From Your Mistakes Faster | 28 May 2022 | 00:06:26 | |
In this episode Sebastián Meléndez talks about how to learn faster from your mistakes. Most people think negatively about failure. However, failure is an essential part of the success cycle. Successful leaders and companies incorporate it into their daily dynamics and create an environment where employees willingly disclose their mistakes rather than hide them. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader#Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Agile Leadership Decoded | 30 Apr 2022 | 00:05:36 | |
In this episode Sebastián Meléndez talks about Agile Leadership. Leadership today is more complex, because the world is evolving rapidly and because of the resistance to change and speed it is difficult for many to keep up. The planet is connected, and all its challenges and problems have a strong impact. We live in a fast-paced, changing, and disruptive time. To enjoy sustained success, companies must develop a level of organizational agility that matches the incremental level of change and complexity in their business environment. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #GlobalLeader #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||

| Virtual Leadership for Business Leaders | 16 Mar 2022 | 00:06:47 | |
In this episode Sebastián Meléndez talks about virtual leadership. If the digital transformation of organizations is imminent, then virtual leadership will become increasingly relevant. From now on, all companies will become digital, and for that reason, the managerial and leadership approach designed to command and control is obsolete. This way of leading was conceived in an era where there was no internet, smartphones, big data, algorithms, artificial intelligence, and face-to-face supervision was the only way to ensure that employees were working. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||

One of the essential changes an executive must make when assuming a management role is to understand that their success depends on their ability to get results through other people.

Leading people is complex, exhausting, and requires developing unique competencies. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||

In this episode Sebastián Meléndez gives us a great advice to achieve high performance. As human beings, we go throughout life with doubts about our abilities, criticism for making mistakes, condemnation for not living up to the expectations.

| How to Improve Your Team’s Performance When They’re Not Executing Well | 19 Feb 2022 | 00:08:23 | |
In this podcast Sebastián Meléndez talks about how to improve your team´s performance when they´re not executing well. A team is one of the key pieces that every leader needs to execute the strategy and achieve superior results. Conceptually most leaders agree. Although, through 20 years of professional practice, it is almost always one of the weak points of any leader. This lack of performance seriously limits executives' professional development, and few have the ability, patience, and understanding to put together high-performance teams. Most have come to settle for having pseudo teams or workgroups. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| What Are the Biggest Obstacles to Achieving Higher Levels of Success? | 31 Jan 2022 | 00:03:42 | |
In this podcast Sebastián Meléndez talks about the Biggest Obstacles to Achieving Higher Levels of Success Human beings tend to be highly self-critical and doubt our ability to achieve things too much. That weakens our identity beliefs, and no one can go further than our opinions about ourselves allow. THAT lack of self-confidence means we can't reach our true potential. Life gives us intense challenges, and many things don't turn out as expected. Faced with this phenomenon, people build disempowering stories of why it is impossible to achieve their vision and gradually stop dreaming. https://www.ifmstrategicsystems.com #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #Executive Coaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining | |||
| Why Success Is Not For Everyone | 24 Jan 2022 | 00:03:54 | |

In this podcast Sebastián Meléndez talks about the 20X Principle he learned from the Navy Seals. Several years ago, I took part in a program organized by Navy Seals to learn concepts of leadership, teamwork, and mental toughness.

| How To Increase Your Level Of Success | 25 Oct 2021 | 00:04:02 | |
In this podcast, Sebastian Melendez talks about how to increase your level of success. One of the biggest problems people have is that they do not understand the importance of deciding what they want for their lives. Most of them drift through life. Few people take the time to set their goals and objectives, and even then, those who do are not in the habit of reviewing them daily either. It is exceptionally critical to write and review the essential goals and objectives one works on every day. #IFMStrategicSystems #IFMGlobal #SebastiánMeléndez #IboFMeléndez #Strategy #Leadership #Success #Purpose #Management #ExecutiveCoaching #HighPerformance #ManagementConsulting #Mentoring #StrategicPlanning #HighPerformanceTeams #CustomizedTraining #Virtualteams #Leadership #VirtualLeadership #Megatrends | |||
