Faz Acontecer Book, Portugal

 15.90

After travelling the world in search of good business ideas in the most diverse areas, which resulted in numerous lectures and a first book, young entrepreneur André Leonardo focused on Portugal. He travelled the mainland and the islands in search of the same treasure, but in a national version: inspiring stories of creativity, success and overcoming difficulties in the world of business.
André travelled through a country that isn't just about tech start-ups or Websummit; a country that, despite being a fundamental part of our social and economic fabric, is often forgotten and overlooked.
From this odyssey, which took him north and south, to the coast and the deep interior, to Madeira and the Azores, André brought back stories of lives and worlds in tourism and agriculture, but also in tattoo parlours and barbershops, which will inspire all Portuguese who want to start their own business. Whatever the sector or scale, the important thing is to make it happen - especially at this delicate time for Portugal and the world.

Criticism

«André is a happening, Their stories are lessons about the world; they are Portugal not afraid to read the stars of the future.»

Carlos Coelho, President Ivity Brand Corp and Portugal Genial Association

«Some people say they're going to do it, but only a few actually do it. André Leonardo is someone who makes it happen.»

Tim Vieira, Entrepreneur and CEO Bravegeneration

«From a conversation with André Leonardo, solutions always emerge, ideas are born, the certainty is formed that this »no' is transformable, that the results depend on us."

José Crespo de Carvalho, Full Professor ISCTE-IUL and President ISCTE Executive Education

  • “My aim was for everyone to get to know this country with fibre, these energetic Portuguese who, in their villages and towns, are a reference point (...).”;
  • “(...) My passion is to inspire people to live, to act. I'm also fascinated by entrepreneurship and above all by people who don't resign themselves to what they're given, who make things happen with ‘soul’ and consistency. I've always been on the side of those who act with heart. And I want to believe that I'm on the side of the good ones. If you feel inspired by this book, it's probably thanks to the fantastic people I'm introducing you to here.”.
  • “(...) this book is not just a compilation of stories, but a toolkit so that you, too, can make things happen. So if any of the stories I'm sharing below awaken something in you, take advantage of it. Get inspired and listen to that silent emotion that your head might tell you to ignore, but your heart tells you to go after. The big difference between the person who lives their dream and the person who aspires - secretly or publicly - is the decision to convert the first emotion into immediate action. Take the first step, however small, and then take another and another (...). No-one has an obligation to give it to you or do it for you. You want it, you go for it with what you've got and you grab it with the strength you don't think you've got. It's up to you, solely and exclusively, adapting whenever necessary to the reality that comes your way and sometimes gritting your teeth.”.
