Indigenous Tribe Rescue Program
The Arhuaco Tribe, Colombia
Enterprise Transformation was the foundation that our Rescue Team employed to build a rescue program from a scratch that ultimately rescued and saved the Arhuaco indigenous from certain extinction. This tribe suffered from an infant mortality rate of more than 65%. Our rescue program to turn this harrowing reality around was developed precisely using the methodologies in Mr. Torres’ book and as a result, the infant mortality rate of the Arhuaco tribe is today less than 2%.

University Studies
Academic Material for Business and Technology
As a former professor at Georgetown University, the National Intelligence University, and the University of Alabama, I used Enterprise Transformation for graduate courses that I taught which were focused on understanding and reducing unneeded government bureaucracy and the integration of technology to better serve internal and external customers and business partners. Enterprise Transformation is a genuine resource that offers step-by-step methods to evaluate bureaucracy and to introduce efficiencies that reduce cost and improve intra- and inter-agency communications.
