What others say about me.

"It was my genuine pleasure to work with Joan at Securitas. Joan is one of the most energetic and driven professionals I have encountered. He brings enthusiasm to every project and has an exceptional ability to get things done efficiently, creatively, and with a positive attitude that lifts the entire team. Working alongside him was effortless; he is collaborative, dependable, and always delivers results that exceed expectations. What truly sets Joan apart is his deep understanding of company transformation. He has a rare talent for reading an organization identifying where it needs to go, what changes are required, and how to get there in a practical, structured way. He navigates complexity with clarity and brings people along on the journey. Whether leading change initiatives or supporting them, he consistently turns vision into reality with skill and confidence."

"Joan quickly proved his potential, escalating from leading multiple projects to becoming the E2E Solution & Delivery Lead for a complex European program. He brought consistency to the multi-country rollout by designing a cross-functional methodology that aligned ways of working, reporting, and business priorities, significantly improving efficiency and clarity. Joan excels at reducing chaos and frustration, expertly orchestrating people and processes. His positive, calm demeanor transforms challenging, high-pressure situations into productive meetings. For an organization looking to move the needle, Joan is the person who will bring structure, drive alignment, and inspire teams."

"Joan was working with me for quite some time in multiple projects at Securitas, managing requirements, workloads, finances, people and all related. Joan can take the bull by the horns, have things under control and also see, smell and inform about things that are starting to go wrong. I have appreciated the work ethics, self driving mindset but also the fun that we have had with him. I certainly recommend Joan to similar roles in the future too!"

He played a key role in supporting complex integrations and establishing a technical project management framework, consistently delivering structure and results in a dynamic environment. What sets Joan apart is that he's not just a strategic thinker — he's a doer. He takes action, embraces challenges, and adapts quickly, ensuring progress rather than waiting for the perfect solution. His ability to fail fast, refine, and drive forward makes him a powerful asset in any organization. Joan is also a strong team leader, skilled in project management and process optimization. He streamlines workflows, improves operations, and fosters collaboration through cross-cultural communication.

Transformation (Processes)

Transformation is about 3 pillars or Ps: Processes, Platforms and People. This video explains why processes are important to get the job done and how different processes have different impact on time, quality and budget. And that is why is important that all companies revisit and rethink their processes.

Have you ever wondered why transformations fail? It rarely happens because of technology. More often, the causes are: No clear vision, Weak sponsorship, Resistance to change, Poor communication. Watch the video and maybe transform the way you think about transformation.

Artificial Intelligence: The Hulk

AI is like the Hulk. Incredible power. Unlimited potential. And a force that can destroy everything in its path if left unchecked. The Hulk didn't ask to be created. But once he existed, the world had to learn how to work with him — not against him.

I am an AI Addict!

We spent decades fighting addictions. And then AI arrived. I am an AI addict. Not the kind that wastes time — the kind that squeezes more out of every hour, every idea, every decision. AI doesn't replace thinking. It amplifies it. The addiction is real: better outputs, faster iteration, sharper insights.

Reading, Writing & Maths No Longer Define Success!

I attended a parent-teacher meeting recently. The speaker opened with something that stopped me in my tracks: Reading, writing, and maths no longer define success. In a world where AI can already outperform us in many of these foundational skills, what's left is what makes us human: the ability to learn, adapt, think critically, and work with others.

99% of people will read this and do nothing. That's exactly why the 1% exists. Being in the top 1% isn't about talent or luck. It's about showing up when others don't. It's about making the decision to act while everyone else is still thinking about it.
