- Using data to serve while keeping empathy
Vivimos en una época donde todo se mide: indicadores, resultados, impacto. Y sí, los datos son esenciales porque nos dan dirección y nos ayudan a tomar mejores decisiones. Pero liderar no es solo interpretar números; es entender a las personas detrás de ellos. Porque cuando olvidamos eso, el impacto se vuelve frío y distante. El verdadero reto —y la verdadera oportunidad— está en usar los datos para servir mejor, sin perder la empatía, la cercanía y el propósito que nos conecta con los demás. María José Paiz es Gerente General de Fundación Bi y una líder comprometida con el desarrollo social en Guatemala. A lo largo de su trayectoria ha impulsado iniciativas que generan oportunidades y mejoran la calidad de vida de miles de personas. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
