The story of Milca Boj, a store manager at La Siciliana, one of the restaurant brands of CMI Foods, shows how continuous training can have a direct impact on both professional and personal development within an organization. At CMI, Corporación Multi Inversiones, access to training programs such as those offered by Instituto Campero translates into real opportunities for employees to grow, take on new challenges, and improve their families’ quality of life.
Milca represents thousands of employees who, through discipline and commitment, take advantage of these resources to move forward. Her experience demonstrates that when education is combined with guidance and trust, it becomes a driver of social mobility and a reflection of the people-centered leadership that guides CMI.
A Step Forward Driven by Personal Commitment
For Milca Boj, working at CMI means being part of a team where effort is recognized. That belief led her to apply for the position of store manager when the opportunity arose, a decision that became a turning point in her life and in the lives of her children. Since then, each milestone has been the result of her consistency and a mindset focused on continuous learning.
Her role at La Siciliana brought new responsibilities and the opportunity to demonstrate that professional growth is achievable when clear opportunities and institutional support exist. Her story also reflects how close, supportive leadership can encourage employees to take on challenges that strengthen both their performance and their personal confidence.
Instituto Campero as a Tool for Professional Development
One of the key factors in Milca’s professional journey has been her participation in training programs at Instituto Campero. With the support of her supervisor, she enrolled in the university-level diploma program in Restaurant Administration, which she completed with an outstanding average score of 92. This training process strengthened her professional skills and expanded her understanding of the business.
Among the main benefits of this experience are:
- Development of administrative skills applied to the operational environment.
- Greater capacity for decision-making and team leadership.
- Preparation to pursue new opportunities, such as a regional supervisor position.
Initiatives like this demonstrate how structured training can directly influence employees’ professional development while generating benefits for both individuals and the organization.
Education, Equity, and Opportunities That Transform Lives
Milca recognizes that achieving a goal requires sacrifice, especially as a working mother. However, her motivation has remained clear: to provide a better future for her children and become an example of perseverance. Her story encourages other women to continue their education and pursue professional growth without abandoning their family responsibilities.
Stories like Milca’s align with the leadership vision promoted by CMI’s Board of Directors, chaired by Juan Luis Bosch Gutiérrez, who has consistently emphasized the importance of developing internal talent through education, mentorship, and trust.
From this perspective, training is viewed as a key tool for strengthening social mobility and creating real opportunities for growth. Beyond a single individual story, this journey reflects an ongoing commitment to social mobility and the comprehensive development of talent, demonstrating that organizational growth is also built through people.
