 You have the ability to visualize future scenarios and identify business
opportunities. It is important to evaluate if other competitors are pursuing the
same opportunity to focus on more promising ones.

You have the ability to imagine fresh ideas to current problems and you are
constantly thinking about how to improve them. To enhance this ability, identify a
problem or a new opportunity that has no solution yet.

Focus on developing your ability to test your ideas and acquire learning. Start by
making small experiments with those ideas that you have not finished yet. Then
ask yourself: What did I learn? What can be useful for the next experiment?

-9- TrepCamp 2017

 You have the desire to transcend and make a positive impact in the world, but
sometimes you doubt of your skills to make a change. Identify the people who
achieve extraordinary things. What did they do to achieve them? What can you
learn from those experiences? What do you need to do to achieve the impact
you want to have?

You have a general idea about your mission but it is important to define it better
in order to have an impact. Ask yourself: Which goals do I want to achieve?
What is the scoop of my mission? How is this different to other missions? Is it
complementary?

You are able to have people near you believing in your mission, but is important
to widen your capacity to incorporate other members. In order to make your
cause relevant for others, it's necessary to incorporate your objectives and
aspirations to eventually transform your personal mission in a collective dream.

 You are able to identify if it is the right time to develop a business opportunity. In
order to develop this skill, even more, you can analyze the response level you
expect from your potential competitors. How fast can they duplicate the product
you develop? How fast can they grow compared to your own growth? What is
the best time to launch the products? Do you think it is best to wait and be more
prepared?

You have a strategic intuition and you are able to develop business strategies.
To reinforce your skill you should imagine new businesses in areas not yet
developed. Which is the best way to develop the business? What are the main
elements in the strategy? Can you outline a strategy in a napkin?

In order to develop an adequate financial intuition, analyze those businesses

around you and identify if they are profitable and their main performance
vectors. Compare several businesses and ask yourself: In which one would I
invest my money? Why?"

-11- TrepCamp 2017

 You need to develop your bifocal vision. It's important not to focus only on
obtaining short-term goals, but long-term ones as well and to set more ambitious
goals. Ask yourself: What do you want to achieve in 5 years?

You are able to listen to those around you in a positive and open way. In an
open conversation, you can identify valuable feedback that is helpful to you. It is
important to learn how to incorporate this information as part of the criteria in
your decision-making process.

You are able to incorporate new learnings from experimenting new activities in
different areas. Now you should find patterns that connect the different learnings
that you have acquired throughout your life. How can you unify those learnings?
How can you apply them in your life?

TrepCamp 2017 -12-

 You have the ability to connect with people around you. To achieve mutual
benefit goals, start by building networks with those in your sector or area of
interest. Ask yourself: What are their interests? Are their goals connected to
mine?

You have the ability to build trust in your relationships. Analyze the relationships
around you and define the value they bring to your life and the value you bring to
theirs. What do I bring to my relationships? Before I ask something in return
what do I give?

As an entrepreneur, it is important to have the ability to communicate effectively

with your audience. In order to achieve this skill, start by analyzing the different
kinds of audiences and messages available. To whom should I talk? What kind
of messages should I choose for this audience?

-13- TrepCamp 2017

 You are able to generate positive energy in your life, but occasionally, external
factors hinder you from keeping the same energy level constantly. In order to
maintain your vitality, identify those things that motivate you. What activities
generate positive energy in your life?

You should develop your determination in order to continue in your journey and
move forward regardless of the adversities. Do not be afraid to follow your goals,
persevere and continue in your path.

You can stand up against adversities rapidly and efficiently. Identify adversities
that can strengthen your abilities and use those experiences to project your
leadership. How did you overcome adversity? How can you share your
knowledge with others? How can you be an example for others to follow?

TrepCamp 2017 -14-

 You are able to create complementary teams and to promote their mutual
collaboration. Now you should strengthen the team's skills. How can I optimize
the team's efforts? Which goals can they achieve as a team?

It is essential to focus the team's energy in achieving goals and to do so

according to the priorities. To achieve it, measure the project's progress. As you
succeed, analyze the results and plan again for any needed changes.

You are able to make decisions in a timely manner, but to take the right decision
in the face of uncertainty, you should analyze each alternative?s cost/benefit.
Always have in mind: What are the benefits? What are the disadvantages?

Choosing your competencies

Which competencies are you interested in

developing or strengthening?

INSTRUCTIONS

In this section, plan the milestones you need to overcome to achieve each goal and explain how you’ll
do it. We propose three different calendars for you to fill out and identify what you can do in a month, in
6 months and within a year.

Next to each calendar, there are follow-up sheets that allow you to compare what you have planned with
your real progress. Analyze what happened during your journey; the best way for you to accomplish your
goals is to regularly open your action plan so you can keep in mind those goals.
