Marco de Tavira EMBA 2019

“The EMBA was a self discovery experience in which I had the opportunity to reflect upon my strengths and weaknesses. In this process I confirmed my passion for Operational Excellence and Project Management. With that knowledge I defined my mission: “to make an impact by helping organizations thrive and leaving this planet better than how I received it”.  At Laurentian Controls I have found an organization where the values and objectives are very well aligned to mine, and where I can make a positive impact to the organization and our customers.”
