Mauro Libi Crestani: The show must go on.”

According to the Webster dictionary means said to ​encourage someone to ​continue with what they are doing, ​even if they are ​experiencing difficulties. 
Guitarist Brian May wrote this while lead singer Freddie Mercury was dying of AIDS. It was Mercury's last official album with Queen, and when it was released, very few people knew he had the disease.

The lyrics are about the need to press on and make the most out of life while you can still enjoy it. It is inevitably a comment on Mercury's worsening condition, and his attitude towards life – May, a member of the band,  noted his incredible courage in the Days of our Lives documentary. "He never moaned, he never said 'my life is s--t, this is terrible, I hate it,'" said May. "He had an incredible strength and peace." 


The show must go on, yeah
Inside my heart is breaking
My make-up may be flaking
But my smile still stays on


Back in 1994 I bought a business from a gentleman who always had a smile on his face. His customers have been with him for many years. They were very loyal to him and he treated them fantastically. He was the most positive person that I ever met. He always had a smile and when his customers asked how things were going, he always said that things were wonderful. 

His customers did not know what he was going through. A divorce that he did not want. His son was out of control and he had all sorts of problems with him. He also had health problems. However, he believed that his customers wanted to work with a happy person with no drama, so he kept on his smile and no one knew any different. Could you imagine if he told his customer his problems? How many would have left him? Customers need to feel secure. They need to feel like by working with you that it is a safe long term investment. A person with problems is not the security that they so crave. 


The show must go on (go on, go on, go on)
I'll face it with a grin
I'm never giving in
On, with the show

How does technology help in business communication?

One of the elements which has undoubtedly worked to support our growth, expansion and excellence projects in the last years, has been technology applied to business communication. I still remember when everything was reduced to memos, billboards, advertisements, photos and one or another printed publication in order to communicate inside the company; at the same time absolutely massive Advertising in existing media was in charge to go to the great public which included our customers and prospects.  Today we can say that with the advance of humankind, communication needed is also appearing.

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...
