Many of these brilliant C-suit executives have started at the bottom, worked hard, and now hold their title with pride. At Beyond Exclamation we honor the journey of these businessmen & women around the world. We dedicate this issue titled “The 10 Most Inspiring CEOs to Watch in 2022” to them. Featuring on the cover of this issue we have captured the successful journey of Ricardo Cortez, Co-CEO of Broadmark Asset Management. For Ricardo, the importance of persistence and belief in one’s purpose cannot be overstated. He credits his dogged persistence and resilience with having helped him bounce back from a number of false starts in his career. These values continue to be the mainstay of his philosophy as he helps his clients navigate the uncertain and uncharted waters of the markets affected by the COVID pandemic. Despite trying his hand and failing at a number of things, from being a guitarist to being a mathematician, Rick finally found his métier as an asset manager. What worked for him was to have tried many things but refuse to get discouraged when most of those didn’t pan out. That makes Ricardo a perfect inspiration for every person who has dreams but is afraid to go after them. Ricardo took the plunge and found himself the perfect career path that led him to become an inspirational leader.
