In this episode of the Exponential Growth Podcast, I sit down with Eduardo Tobon, former CEO of Santander Payments, former President of Diners Club International, and current Group Head for the Latino Segment at BMO.
Eduardo shares his journey from growing up in Colombia to leading global financial institutions across North America, Asia, and Europe. At one point, he was traveling 22 days per month, building and transforming businesses at scale.
Today, he is driving one of the most powerful economic movements in America: unlocking growth within the $4 trillion Latino economy.
We discuss:
• What it takes to lead global transformations
• Intrapreneurship — building a company within a company
• Why execution beats strategy when poorly executed
• Venture investing vs. steady asset allocation
• Leadership in the age of AI and automation
• The power of ranking and visibility through the Latino Index 500
• How consistency creates extraordinary results
Eduardo also shares his framework for leadership in exponential times, and why grit, preparation, and disciplined execution still matter more than ever, even in the age of artificial intelligence.
