I believe that that the most important characteristic of any employee or contractor is being able to determine business needs and then developing processes to solve those issues. This means my value is knowing at all times what is going to produce the most results to any problem that the business is facing. I employ techniques like Pareto’s principle to determine what are the top 20% of action that will produce 80% of results. I believe too many people focus on things that will never push the company forward. I am the opposite; I will only focus on what will help the organization get results. 

Education Transfer this is one of the fundamental flaws of the education system! People spend years at Universities and Colleges all around the world only to come out not knowing how to solve actual problems. I pride myself on not being one of those people. For the longest time I have built a system to make sure my education is actually useful to me. Education is a tool, a tool to solve problems that are in the world. When you address the world as a problem solver first, any education that is built upon that is just another tool to solve real problems. 

For example, I studied both Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing Engineering. If I was to just go to school and think, “oh this school is going to educate me to be an Engineer” then I will be able to get a job after, this limits opportunity and value. The approach that I take is how is this knowledge going to help people solve their real pain points. I ask “How do I apply this knowledge beyond the confinement of a class room”. The knowledge of how the how everything comes together is the real way to set your knowledge up to transfer. The core transfer skills are Optimization of Designs, Hypothesis Test, Solution Development and Failure Analysis. This is done by using many tools of the trade like solid works and FEA software like ANSYS. 

Another is example is when I self study Human Behavior and Psychology. If I was just to read and learn the information and say “well that’s cool” that will deny me the real value. But if I think as a problem solver this allows me to think how can I use the information to truly understand people that their needs. How can I use my knowledge of mirror neurons to learn at a faster rate. How can I use my knowledge of micro expressions and body language to understand what people are really saying behind their words. When you think as a problem solver your knowledge expands and transfers. 

I am able to take the concepts learned from college and university and transfer them into the real world. This includes real world product development using skills such as quality management, project management and team building. I am also able to employ mathematical models and use physics of materials to design products that can meet their end user and hidden customer needs. This is just the tip of iceberg of how my knowledge transfers and I able to apply my knowledge rapidly. 

My portfolio pieces and even this website demonstrate my ability to solve problems. My results such as winning design shows and exponential  skill growth. 

My strength is my diverse knowledge in many fields like engineering, psychology, sales, marketing, design and web development. I believe that being a generalist in many knowledge areas allows me to always have the right “tool” to solve any problem. I understand that a businesses goal is generate more revenue and profit. Generating more revenue means that the business stays alive and is able to continuing providing for their employees. Then by generating more profit this allows the company to give raises or to reinvest in the organization to expand operations. 

I do not have any weaknesses, my mental chamber is built like a tank. I have trained my mind so that their is no weaknesses only a robotic machine that is focused only on proving value…. 

Well if only if that was true I would be on my path to world domination. My true weakness is my desire to help people. This was a characteristic that got me in trouble because I tried helping everyone around me even if they did not want the help or it took away from my mission in life. 

How I fight against this characteristic is by pouring myself into projects and roles that allow me to actually help people that want to be helped and that aligns with my mission in life. 

I am performance driven, so my leadership directly reflects this drive. I work with people to produce the best results they are capable or producing. I hunt for their deepest strengths and I get them to use it to deliver results for our mission. 

What you can expect from me:

1. A strong desire and commitment to excellence and create high value products and services for our customers. 

That one expectation is what will lead to me doing what ever is required to providing value. I believe a customer focused mindset is what separates good organizations from weak ones. If people only focused on money they will forever chase it and focus on what what attracts money to them. What attracts customers to them is by building an organization that provides the most value. Every employee needs to have this mindset. 

Anything that involves personal development and becoming more. 

• Reading 
• Writing
• Spirituality 

If you would like to know more go to my blog at DeusRondon. This is where I write in detail about my mindset and how I chase excellence. 

1. Time management
2. High levels of Focus
3. Commitment to Excellence  

I am most satisfied what I know the work I do actually produces results for an organization and helps them help their customers.
