Mauro Libi Crestani: Being positive and have a positive attitude

Some things are just a bad idea and were not meant to be. Being positive and having a positive attitude and positive thinking does not mean that you believe that every idea that you ever will have is a correct one. Some times having confidence in yourself means that you know when to quite. It is being self assured and strong enough to quit when you have failed at a task.


Sony technologies, we all will agree is a very successful company. Akio Morita, who was the founder of Sony knew that he would succeed. He started his company making a rice cooker, that was terrible, It burned the rice and was a total failure. He gave up on this idea quickly and admitted his mistake. Never be afraid to cut your losses and move on from an objectively bad idea or situation. Have the confidence that a bad idea or several bad ideas or failures does not make you a failure. A positive person moves on and learns from his mistakes to eventually find his win. Akio Morita had a saying, "If you never had a failure then you never tried anything new."

Successful people like Akio Morita and the Sony company did not look at failure more than anything but a stepping stone to success. They knew that they would succeed even when they failed. That first failure did not stop him from building a multi billion dollar company.

Akio was very positive, you had to be a positive person to make the following statement about his companies new products, "It had to be something different, something that nobody else was making." The company had the belief that even when something was impossible and everyone told you that it was impossible, that you had to be so positive that you knew otherwise.

Mauro Libi: Social responsibility can improve your financial performance

 Social responsibility represents benefits for the society where the organizations are located, but for the companies too , since their effects are also felt in profitability.Just as you read it, it is proven that the risk of affecting the profitability of companies and enterprises grows when there is no specific application of responsibility with the organization's environment, nor transparency and business ethics. It is therefore, essential that organizations incorporate socially responsible actions into their management and, the benefits go beyond philanthropy or timely help that companies can provide to the communities where they operate.The actions of social responsibility are highly beneficial for organizations beyond the immediate effect that their action generates in society, and in the long term, the contribution that companies and enterprises make in their environment help generate a virtuous circle and healthy economic development.  How they do this...
