8. Mission statement
 Vivian: To walk my talk, living life fully
empathetically and honestly. To find the opportunity
and the positive in every situation adding a pinch of
humor in the hard ones. To trust my dreams and
work towards their becoming true.

my senses in order to construct and develop a
working environment characterized by positivism,
assertiveness, energy, knowledge, reliability and
comradeship.

9. I believe…
that choosing once and again my
position will help keep and
renew my passion for leading
that feeling gratitude towards the
responsibility of leading others will
preserve myself humble

10. I believe…
that renewing, reinventing and
reinvesting in my own professional
growth might awaken motivation and
interest to do so in others
that speaking wisely, assertively and
listening with an open disposition shows
caring for others

11. I believe…
that a kind and warm heart is needed
whenever one wants to deal with
adversity
that touching and connecting to others'
souls allows empathy to happen

12. I believe…
that human essence is good
that we must try to see always the best in
others as we would like to be seen

13. I believe…
that all and each of us can somewhere
make the difference
