This is one of the reasons why we decided to act so promptly, even though we were sure Alicorp was a very successful organization, there was a chance it might not be what we are looking for.
It was impressive how quickly we were able to jump into the magazine project, only making some rapid decisions and getting to work as soon as possible. Normally, big projects like these take time to decide upon before actually taking action, but this experience was quite different, in order to succeed we must fail quickly, and to do so we shall move forward. Once we were given 3 hours to decide on which organization we will be writing about on our article, my partner and I made the decision instantly. Instead of wasting time commenting about different organizations, we used our time wisely, contacting useful resources, sending out emails, booking interviews etc. Doing this we are able to find out weather if it is t r u l y a great organization and if not, being able to fail quickly and finding any possible solutions. Applying the "fail fast, fail better"concept is curtail for this project process, seeking out for great organizations is not easy, we might find ourselves looking at the wrong company and later realizing it isn’t what your expecting and before you know it, there’s no room for changes. This is one of the reasons why we decided to act so promptly, even though we were sure Alicorp was a very successful organization, there was a chance it might not be what we are looking for. In order to do this, we immediately booked a meeting with our contact Luis Fernando Onrubia (General Manager of Alicorp), in this meeting we got very useful information that is necessary for the creation of the article. Before having the interview we planned out possible questions that might help us determine weather it is truly a great company, he gave us loads of useful facts and even provided us the mission book of the organization. After the meeting we were filled with everything we needed to know, and now be confident that Alicorp is exactly what we expected.
