EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
IT IS NOT IMPORTANT WHAT YOU DO,
IT IS IMPORTANT HOW YOU DO IT
The importance of the individual and excellence has been lost, by the culture of celebrating teams and discouraging any recognition of an individual.
With nearly 20 years of international experience as a Field Sales and Business Development in the South East Asia - Asia Pacific market, I am available to bring my experience at the service of companies that want to shine in the SEA-APAC region. - (CLICK/TAP TO EXPAND)
Role: "on the road" Sales / Technical Sales Representative, which allows me to express the strong passion for sales and the skills in customer relations, communication, and persuasion.
Objective: to contribute to the growth of turnover and the achievement of company objectives.
Method: to oversee and manage the assigned territory with regular visits to existing customers to acquire orders, strengthen the relationship and maximize sales.

WHY AN INDIVIDUAL CONTRIBUTOR AND NO MORE A PEOPLE'S MANAGER
Since HIGH SCHOOL times, I managed people and a staff of 50 persons. While still attending classes, I was already generating a cash flow for the Company and a much more than considerable personal income.
As Non Commissioned Officer in the ARMY, I had the rank of Major Corporal (retired as Sergeant), with the role of platoon's commander and Charlie Company Liutennants assistant, managing the needs of up to 300 Officiers and troopers.
As a passionate SCUBA DIVER and DIVE MASTER, I have mentored countless new divers. Like a school of young fish swimming together under the protective gaze of seasoned adults, I ensured that these novice divers felt supported and safe, fostering their growth and confidence with each dive.
TL;DR! (attention: may cause burns and bruises) - (CLICK/TAP TO EXPAND)
If you're a serious and sincere company, keep reading. If you're a time-waster or a "I want but can't," go pick mushrooms in the woods.
A demanding professional, looking for a company that will value me. I have the skills, passion, and ambition to achieve great results, but I'm not willing to compromise on the quality of my work or the respect for my values.
I've dedicated years of my life to building a career based on ethics and professionalism, with innovation as a constant. I'm tired of companies promising the moon and then turning out to be mirages in desert.
I'm not interested in power games or shortcuts.
I want to work with companies and people who share my values and are willing to go the extra mile to achieve ambitious goals.
I want a company that challenges me, that helps me grow, not that bores me to death.
If you have a project so revolutionary that it would make even Elon Musk's pulse race, then maybe we can talk.
I'm looking for a stage worthy of my performance, not a circus where I'm expected to jump through flaming hoops.
I'm a high-level professional, not a circus monkey.
If you think you can train me like a pet, think again. I prefer to work with intelligent and ambitious people who don't need a manual to manage talent like mine.
I'm tired of empty promises and companies that present themselves as 'families'. I'm looking for a stimulating and professional environment where my ideas can grow and develop. If your company is more interested in organizing birthday parties than achieving ambitious goals, then we're not a good fit. I'm here to work, not to make friends.
If you agree, if you have ambitious projects and you are willing to pay accordingly, then we might have something in common.
Otherwise, save your time and mine. I'm not interested in illusions or broken promises.
I'm a professional, not a resource to be exploited.
