An entrepreneur for the last nine years, Leonardo began in the food business and later owned a restaurant, which he decided to close due to family health issues. Today, he works as an organisational consultant, a volunteer mentor at Aliança Empreendedora and an ambassador for the Guru de Negócios programme. He holds a degree in business management.
What Leonardo offers as a mentor is empathy. He remembers everything he went through and how he overcame each obstacle, and uses that experience to present a wider and motivational vision – showing his mentees how to focus on the solution and not the problem.
Leonardo has always been passionate about entrepreneurship and really enjoys collaborating on the development of people and projects. What satisfies him most about being a mentor is helping others and getting that feeling of gratitude.
