She understands the power of customer driven results in extremely competitive environments. With this deep strategy leadership background, she shares how adapting to change and embracing personal growth paved her way to success during the pandemic time.

Transitioning to a New World

"Everything was going well, and then the world stopped," begins Liliana, recounting the initial phase of the pandemic. She reflects on the transitions she needed to navigate, both personally and professionally. Liliana emphasizes the role of social media platforms like LinkedIn after understanding its potential to connect with her team, customers, and broader audience while being physically apart.

To adapt to this "new world," she notes three significant initiatives: using and understanding the value of social media, joining the 'Chief' community for networking, and sharing her perspectives through blogs. She highlights her first ever podcast with Tammy Erwin, the CEO of Verizon Business, that demonstrated the power of creative outreach.

A Mantra for Growth

Liliana's mantra for growth stems from her personal and professional journey: "See it, believe it and you will live it." She views this principle as a driving force behind all growth – be it personal, in relationships with teams or customers, or in one's career.

As she says, "You can't lose sight of trying to meet people in person." She emphasizes the continuing importance of in-person connections but emphasizes social media's dynamic role in networking. Liliana even shares a unique initiative with her team involving actor David Hasselhoff – a fun way to stay connected and motivated virtually.

A Personal Call to Action

Liliana ends her talk with a personal call to action: reach out and try something new. She prompts us to dare to embrace new initiatives, get out of our comfort zones, and open the doors to opportunities that await us. She wraps up by welcoming people to reach out to her via LinkedIn.
