On April 22nd, the Georgetown Club of Spain held another meeting of the Leadership Series about Perspectives on Talent and Competitiveness in Spain. On this occasion, it was the time for media. We had the privilege to count on Pedro Piqueras in an exclusive breakfast. Mr. Pedro Piqueras is one of our most reputed journalists and newscasters, with a very long career in leading positions both at radio (Director at Radio Nacional de España) and television (director and newscaster at RTVE, Antena 3 and Telecinco).

Mr. Piqueras shared with us some of his best leadership and career advice on a lifetime of experiences, giving us invaluable insights on the past, current and media prospects at global, European and national level. Mr. Piqueras highlighted the relevance of objectivity in media, especially in the current times of uncertainty with different autocratic trends all over the world. He analyzed also how relevant it is to empower the role of journalists in a world where sensationalism, social influencers and political pressures grow day by day. Mr. Piqueras, in a positive note, also highlighted what has been achieved in the last decades in Europe, with high standards for quality of life, especially in Spain, encouraging us to keep fighting to preserve the value of truth even at difficult times.

It was a real privilege for all attendees to listen to Mr. Piqueras´ insights on important and complex issues in such a clear way. We also had the opportunity to share insights and ask questions in a very easy-going environment to one of the most prominent leaders we have ever had. We really enjoyed this special opportunity!!!
