About Miguel

Most companies don’t fail because of strategy — they fail because execution breaks down.

I work with CEOs and leadership teams of SMEs and scale-ups to align strategy, operations and execution, turning ambition into measurable growth.

With 30+ years of executive experience across Europe and Latin America, I bring a CEO-level perspective to business challenges, combining strategic clarity with hands-on execution.

I typically support companies in:

• Growth strategy and scaling
• Operational alignment and execution
• Business transformation
• Revenue acceleration and profitability improvement
• Strategic decision-making at leadership level

My approach (Nexentia – Red Core Thread®) ensures that strategy is not just defined, but effectively executed across the organization.

Typical outcomes:
✔ Acceleration of growth (20–40%)
✔ Improved EBITDA and operational efficiency
✔ Clear and actionable execution roadmap

If you are navigating growth, complexity or transformation, I’d be happy to exchange perspectives.
