Two decades. Five countries. The same patterns.

The patterns Cristian describes in his work show up wherever leadership teams have lost clarity on what they are trying to accomplish, wherever truth has stopped reaching the people who need it, and wherever an effort is carrying more risk than anyone is willing to name out loud.

He's spent two decades inside those moments — across capital projects, post-acquisition integrations, scale-up transitions, and strategic transformations, in owner organizations, contractor environments, and early-stage ventures, across the United States, Mexico, Colombia, Canada, and the Caribbean. The settings vary, the underlying work is the same: restoring the conditions that allow capable people to make good decisions and move forward with confidence.

His involvement spans cumulative capital investment of over a billion dollars, from early scope definition through execution, commissioning, and startup. He continues to advise senior leadership teams on the efforts where the cost of getting it wrong is highest.

What Everyone Knew is Cristian's second book. He lives in Houston, Texas, where he flies small aircraft and spends time with his family.
