About Me

My Intro

Nicolás Venegas Oliva

I'm Nicolás Venegas Oliva

I help teams and organizations unlock their full potential through strategic leadership, innovation, and a human-centered approach.

Manager of Data & AI Operations at LATAM Airlines. I specialize in building resilient and scalable MLOps environments, empowering analytics teams to create data products that interact seamlessly with real-world systems. My passion lies in transforming data into strategic decisions that drive innovation and efficiency.

Vision

My Vision and Principles

I believe real leadership is not just about mobilizing teams: it’s about transforming cultures, driving innovation, and unlocking people’s full potential.

My purpose is to lead with a future-driven vision, integrating technology, data, and a collaborative culture to build more human, adaptable, and resilient organizations.

My Leadership Principles:

  • Empower with Trust: I believe in shaping leaders, not followers. I delegate with purpose and create environments where people can grow, make decisions, and take ownership of their impact.
  • Innovate Collaboratively: True innovation emerges from a diversity of ideas and perspectives. I foster co-creation spaces where failing fast and learning together is part of the growth journey.
  • Decide with Empathy and Data: The best decisions come from balancing human intuition with analytical evidence. I lead by combining technology, information, and organizational empathy.
  • Learn and Evolve Continuously: Constant change is not a threat—it is an endless source of opportunity. I embrace a mindset of continuous learning and foster it within my teams.
