MIAMI, April 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The life coach, business strategist, journalist, lecturer, and author of eight bestsellers on leadership and emotional intelligence, Ismael Cala, was chosen unanimously by a prominent jury to receive the Dedicated Optimists award in the category of Social Transformation bestowed by the magazine "Anoche tuve un sueño" (Last Night I Had a Dream), whose awards ceremony will take place May 9 at the Reina Sofía Museum in Madrid, Spain.  

Said award, which is now in its ninth edition, is led by Julia Higueras, a candidate for the Top 100 Women Leaders in Spain, indicated that said accolade "seeks to reward the work of people and institutions that, through their commitment, contribute to improving society and, in this way, propel human progress."

In the words of Ismael Cala, "I welcome this award, which represents recognition for thousands of people in the world who struggle in silence with challenging mental health situations or who seek an awakening of consciousness that connects them with a greater well-being." Furthermore, he celebrated the fact that there are platforms such as "Anoche tuve un sueño" that are dedicated to honoring in a positive tone the work of self-knowledge and leadership.

For his part, Higueras expressed that "the awards are a step forward, a demonstration that kindness rhymes with heroic and brave. We reward citizens who do not make noise, who do not shout, but who work in silence to offer future generations a dignified legacy." 

The jury is made up of Mayte Ariza (creator of the category), Sergi Torres, Miriam Zárate, Enrique Jurado, and Julia Higueras.  

In previous editions, Social Transformation is the category that had the greatest impact, since, though the most intangible, it is also the one most connected to humanity and the use of talent in a constructive way.

Among the previous winners of this award are individuals of the stature of Borja Villaseca, Mario Alonso Puig, Frank Pucelik, and Daniel Lumera, all true leaders and forerunners in this category.
