Skills Workshop: Critical Operational Skills: Much More than "Soft Skills"

In highly demanding technical and industrial environments, we have bought into the myth that communication, conflict management, or leadership are secondary "soft skills." However, the greatest operational risk in a project is rarely a calculation error; it is usually a technical team that does not dare to challenge the leader, a project manager unable to say "NO" to unfeasible deadlines, or a department operating under systemic self-exploitation. In this workshop, we debunk the concept of Soft Skills to implement Directive Engineering.

Speaker: Carlota Abello is an engineer, consultant, and author of the book Autoexplotación S.L. Co-founder of Dogram Ingeniería, she brings 6 years of direct experience in the nuclear sector and over a decade leading B2B sales in high-demand industrial environments. Today, through her consultancy Espacio en Blanco, she applies her "Directive Engineering" methodology to audit executive boards and technical leaders, redesigning their operational structure to ensure performance and profitability without sacrificing quality of life along the way.
