At a life-sciences company dedicated to transforming the lives of people and animals, Rafael serves as executive director to more than 13,000 people across America.
Throughout his impressive career, Rafael has worked with the National Puerto Rican Coalition, COORS, IKEA, and American Airlines to name a few!
Rafael opened up about humanistic leadership, DICE (Diversity, Inclusion, Culture and Equity), and he also spoke about the one thing we could all use more of in the workplace and beyond - love.
This was a fascinating conversation and it left me with a lot to think about in terms of leadership and different approaches we could all be exploring.
