What readers are saying.

Beyond Energy is a call to lead with vision and responsibility, integrating social and environmental considerations from the very beginning of projects—building trust systematically from day one.
Madelka McCallaChief Corporate Affairs
Many leadership books repeat the same ideas, but this one approaches the topic from the perspective of real challenges and tough decisions. I appreciated the honesty in the author’s reflections and the way he connects strategy with human values like trust and transparency.
Ivan SimmonsExecutive Coach
His perspective on leadership, growth, and transformation brings clarity at a time of energy transition, when solid ideas are needed to move forward with determination and agility.
Ricardo Manuel FalúExecutive President
This book is a concise and practical read that offers a clear and insightful perspective on leadership in complex environments. It’s a relatable and useful book that invites reflection on the moments when leadership is truly put to the test.
Raúl LizarazoHR Director
Beyond Energy highlights that leadership in complex environments depends more on culture, people, and trust than on technology. A brief yet powerful read on leading with vision and a human-centered mindset.
José VanderhorstSystems Architecture Consultant
A book with energy at the center of its narrative—highly valuable for those with experience in the sector, and for those without it, it offers enough detail to understand why the energy transition is the most relevant issue for our future and how to approach it in the best possible way.
Francisco MorandiSenior VP, Board Member
Excellent stories and anecdotes. A “must-read” for every leader navigating capital-intensive industries. It’s not a book—it’s a navigation manual for turbulent waters.
Osvaldo GonzálezDeputy General Manager
A masterful guide on human leadership and decision-making in times of crisis. Julio reminds us that true leadership is born from human conviction and the wisdom only gained by learning from mistakes.
Heber CastilloBusiness Development Director
I especially liked how he connects energy, risk management, and organizational culture with human and sustainable leadership. “Beyond Energy” is much more than a book about leadership in the energy sector.
Alexis MarínData Governance Lead
A must-read for anyone seeking to bolster their leadership abilities, advance their career, and embrace a modern approach to making decisions. Far from being limited to the energy industry, this book is for anyone who wants to lead better, using clear criteria and a forward-thinking vision.
José MendezSales Consultant
The writing style is straightforward and reflective, which makes the book easy to read. Each chapter offers ideas that encourage you to think about your own leadership approach. Some of the best parts are the lessons drawn from real crises and how they shaped the author’s perspective.
