What People are Saying
Miguel has been a trusted advisor to his clients since 1995. Here’s what a few of them have to say about his work.
-
“Miguel worked on my legal team at both The Gillette Company and at Iron Mountain. He is a talented lawyer whose first objective always is to understand the needs of the business and to provide practical, thoughtful and results oriented advice. Miguel consistently impressed me with his leadership skills especially since he worked seamlessly and effectively around the globe developing and managing people from different cultures and with different perspectives. He handles critical issues whether regulatory matters or significant disputes with the right attention to detail and never loses sight of the business objectives.”
-
“Miguel is not just a fine lawyer and business partner, but he is strong business leader and problem solver who delivers outstanding results. Whether it was strategic M&A, business critical litigation or sensitive customer matters, Miguel always managed with incredible poise and critical understanding of the issues and parties. My trust in Miguel could not have been higher and as a member of my business leadership team I often would rely on him to give me his candid opinion on the business or talent issue at hand.”
-
“Miguel always showed a high level of responsibility in the things he was responsible for. His commitment, loyalty, support and his mastery of legal knowledge was always demonstrated. He was proactively looking for new ways to meet his client’s needs and went beyond what was expected from him. Miguel, as my General Counsel was able to contribute to the business growth of the company and was seen as a strategic business partner. He is a business oriented lawyer and pragmatic in his legal-business advice. He is a team player. It was a pleasure working with him.”
-
“I worked with Miguel back when I was President and CEO in IBM Mexico. He showed great leadership and strategic thinking in reshaping not only our Legal Department but also the relationship with our clients and partners, something very much needed at that time to be able to recover the confidence from the market. He led a strategic change in our way of contracting as well as connecting his team with business needs. Clearly understood IBM’s strategy and demonstrated great team work to make it happen.”
Do you have a business expansion plan that you feel confident In?
No matter how long you’ve been in business, it’s scary to expand your business. All that time, money, and effort dedicated to an indefinite outcome. The corporate world is littered with stories of business expansion failures by some of the largest companies on Earth. Why do great companies fail in foreign markets? The unknown – what they didn’t know hurt them.
Just because you succeed in one market does not mean you will find success waiting for you in the next one. New cultures you need to adapt to. New rules you need to follow. New business practices that only the locals know (and you need to learn quickly.) New languages you need to understand.
Carrillo International Associates® exists to eliminate all the unknowns by providing you with the resources you need to confidently expand your business into a new market. Carrillo International Associates® wants to be your trusted advisor. The expert you can count on to be by your side when you confront the unknown. No more guessing! No more surprises! Just the confidence to take the next right action because you worked with a trusted advisor.
