In the whirlpool in which many of us live, words do not always have the relevance that they should, nor are they chosen with the care that they deserve. However, words, and from where they are spoken, are a key to building the authentic leadership we need. So says M.D. and Professor of Leadership and Communication Mario Alonso Puig. He has experienced firsthand the awesome power of words and their importance in human relationships. In fact, this passion has led him to discover his true vocation in teaching and inspiring others.

Author of books such as “Madera de Líder” (Characteristics of a Leader), “Vivir es un asunto urgente” (Living is an Urgent Matter),  "Reinventarse” (Reinventing Yourself), and “Ahora yo” (Now Me); his latest book is called "La respuesta" (The Answer). In the following Mario Alonso Puig talks with WOBI in an exclusive interview about authentic leadership and how to discover our purpose in life.
