Attention Entrepreneurs-ideologues, Do you know WAYRA?

The RAE dictionary defines the word ideologist anddeluded person, dreamy, utopian or also those person, delivered to an ideology, ignores reality.

I think that in these times few people are delivered to an ideology. Unfortunately philosophers and great thinkers are in the doldrums, and still holding transmitting to their ideas we are leaving, as the admired Jose Luis Sampedrowho died recently at his home with the same simplicity and dignity So faced his life.

Ideologies have been overwhelmed by the economic, business, and general conveniences. The values ​​and ideological concepts have receded, and now we miss not seeing clearly recovery on the horizon.

Instead, yes they are in vogue otro kind of ideologues, those not referred to in any sense the dictionary of the RAE, but I'm going to voluntarily include in this term. I merefiero those ideologues who are the entrepreneurs present new ideas. Not talking about the individual who undertakes another business catering, disco trade, but the entrepreneur who longs to launch innovative business ideas.

In this category of enterprise, most creative ideas materialize within the world of new technologies of information and communication. ICTs.

TELEPHONE GROUP has launched WAYRA, one interesting collaborative platform for entrepreneurs with ideas that merezcan supporting a total, so they are not lost due to lack of funding, or marketing support management in its broadest sense.

The video below explains perfectly TELEPHONE GROUP initiative to support international startups.

 

Encouragement “Tekis”!! Do not throw any great idea on deaf ears. Our great Spanish incumbent offers you this opportunity, and so we have to congratulate TELEFONICA.

However, and after this recognition, I wonder what has this curious tendency Business group with respect to its leading. Do you know who has been appointed head of WAYRA?He socialist politicalLuis Solana, who was President of Telefonica and between 1982 and 1989, and replacing Gonzalo Martín-Villa Peña, which happens to be the CEO of WAYRA.

Previously known names other political classes have occupied important positions in GRUPO TELEFONICA. As I recall known as:  Eduardo Zaplana, Narcís Serra, Rodrigo Rato, Inaki Urdangarin, ….

Estas prácticas aparentemente “dedocráticas” traen a mi memoria aquel Director General que colocó a sus dos hijos en la Compañía sin proceso de selección ni rubor alguno. Su hijo, del cual nadie teníamos noticia sobre sus capacidades, se convirtió en Director Financiero y tiempo después en Director General de la filial en Portugal. Y a su hija fue contratada como asistente mía, when my post of Director of Marketing and Sales secretary available. Tanto me violentó la imposición que decidí reconvertir  a las dos en asistentes del equipo de Marketing y del equipo de Ventas respectivamente. Acostumbrarme to gestionar I propia agenda, expense account and other personal activities was certainly a good and premonitory notion, for a couple of years later to join an American multinational big TOPs saw that only possessed asistant; and others,except clean the office all, absolutely everything, Personal concern was. There dedocracia was unusual, except at high altitudes, vi appear as a CEO of 30 years old, that with virtually no time to prove their merit had perhaps reached that position by his father, a recognized TOP of the large European banks.

Self-reflection:

Do you think certain additions in the same company could suggest a conflict of integrity?

Meritocracy Is a core value that is diluted in the TOPs of large corporations?
