“When we started the Holaluz adventure, at the end of 2010, the business culture was for us something nice, of a modern company, that looked very good in a presentation. Over the years and the experience of disruptive growth, we have learned that culture is a fundamental pillar that has allowed us to organize and motivate a great team of people, thanks to which Holaluz achieves incredible challenges. Lluís’ experience and vision have contributed enormously to this transformation.”

— Oriol Vila, CEO & Co-founder | Holaluz

“As Lluís describes very well, the purposes and values ​​play a fundamental role in aligning companies towards a common goal in times of development. Working with Lluís in this area has helped us structure our growth and design a framework that has allowed us to guide the entire team in the same direction. In addition to being an excellent professional, Lluís is one of those people with whom it is a pleasure to work.”

— Carlos Puigjaner, CEO & Co-founder | Verbio S. L.

“A typical characteristic of startups, and even more so of spin-offs, is the lack of experience in business administration issues of the founders. These companies are born with a novel product idea or, in the case of spin-offs, with a technology that has to be transferred from the academic world to the business world. Generally, the founders of these companies are people with very technical knowledge (engineers, scientists, etc.) of the product or problem to be solved and do not know business management. Business management and management are as important as the technical part. For this reason, coaching and mentoring contributions such as those of Lluís Gras are essential for entrepreneurs to open their knowledge, obtain support and success, and have trustworthy people with whom they can share both management, economic and organizational problems as well as the part, very important, of business psychology.”

“We started working with Lluís as a part of a European Project. This project came at the right time when our small startup transitioned from less than 10 people to almost 30 team members. Lluís helped us in establishing some of the most crucial processes in our growing organization. We continued working with Lluís outside of the scope of the project. One example is the two-day workshop he organized to define our core values. It was an interactive and fun way to get feedback from various team members in Qmenta and we managed to define and more importantly learned how to keep our values alive throughout the organization”

 

— Vesna Prchkovska, PhD, COO & Co-founder | Qmenta

“Finding the right people and putting everyone in the right position is essential to achieve a great culture in a successful organization. Lluís has initiated the development of the digital version of the Job Score-card and has constantly driven us throughout the process. In his pleasant, positive way, he asked critical questions, gave decisive impulses, and never lost sight of putting the added value for the customer first. Thank you, Lluís”

— Michael Klinger, CEO & Co-founder | Team24x
