TURNING CHANGE
INTO VALUE...

About

ONE-ON-ONE

Navigating change under uncertainty, is both a professional and a personal challenge — regardless if you’re an executive leading a transformation, a stakeholder, or a team member building solutions.

With tailored one-on-one guidance, we can together uncover your strengths, address blind spots, and build the capability for you to perform your role in change at your best.

All of this, while on the job — through learning by doing.

COACHING

Grounded in your day-to-day role in change, I help you identify growth opportunities, bridge specific skill gaps, and apply practical techniques that unlocks your ability to connect people,  value and change.

MENTORING

With focus on your broader professional journey, I listen about your aspirations and share insights — drawing on experience and as a senior colleague — to support your growth, deepen your self-awareness, and help you reach your goals with purpose and intention.

LEARNING BY DOING

In this era of accelerated change, organisations are shortening learning curves by integrating work and learning — embracing a range of approaches, including learning by doing.

I have based my professional practice on experiential learning as a foundation for building capability as well as driving change. I mentor and coach people on the job, while experiencing the real flow of change.

"The convergence of work and learning
is not just a shift in how organizations operate —
it’s a redefinition of what it means to grow, adapt, and thrive."

ABOUT

Hi, I’m Fernando, founder of River Plate Projects.

I also bring four years of digital multimedia content creation to connect with today’s intergenerational workforce, in ways meaningful to them.

Available for mentoring and coaching in English and Spanish.
