“Nuno is one of the best leaders I have worked with during the last 20 years of my career. I am glad that I have been close to him during these past nine years, reporting directly or indirectly, as well as learning and growing with him. He has been a truly strict boss, pushing everyone to do their best, but he has always been supportive and teaching; Nuno aims to get the best possible or "impossible" result at every moment. What I like is that he is a very strategic thinker that can also go down on different levels and spread his knowledge with enthusiasm throughout the organization. He is a "hands-on" leader, and furthermore, he is an amazing person, a good friend, and a tremendous father. I'm proud to say that he has been my mentor (maybe he doesn't know that) and a role model, the one that I aspire to be. I recently read the book, "Relentless", and I found a phrase that is a perfect example of Nuno´s mental approaches, “...they expect to succeed, and when they do, they never celebrate for long because there's always more to do. Every accomplishment is just a stepping-stone to the next challenge”. Congratulations on your new role. You are going to do an amazing job!”

The Real-Time Tech Revolution: Let’s Not Miss Out On The Future
Forbes
It is all too common today to hear that technology is changing the nature of what it means to be human. Artificial intelligence (AI) in particular is frequently portrayed to be a dangerous and fast-moving current, utterly transforming anything that crosses its path. The change happening is dramatic, for sure, but perhaps it’s not the negation of humanity. Perhaps it’s a Rubicon we must cross to access the next level of our shared human potential.
