I speak about how mindset is shaped by culture and how it impacts business and self-confidence, comparing Portugal, Germany, and the US. I share lessons learned from interacting with entrepreneurs, especially around valuing your work and selling yourself. I talk about my new advertising project, Oliver Media, the challenges of B2B sales, and differences in how people approach business across countries. I reflect on how surrounding yourself with a strong entrepreneurial mindset can change what you believe is possible, and why understanding culture is key for B2B success.
