Abstract

RESUMENAl estudiar la vida y obra de los tres Dones sujetos de estudio, nos encontramos con personajes que han sido catalogados por muchos como de los mejores estrategas empresariales de la segunda mitad del siglo XX, en Antioquia. En ellos confluyen una calidad humana excepcional, una visión empresarial destacada y un sentido de responsabilidad social y de preocupación por los problemas del entorno, en este caso de Medellín y de Antioquia.No se trata de elaborar un panegírico de los tres Dones, sino de construir sus historias de vida, de la forma más objetiva posible, fundamentada en los testimonios de sus más estrechos colaboradores y de las personas que compartieron sus suenos y sus ideas.Se resalta la importancia de las historias de vida como técnica de investigación, desde un enfoque cualitativo, para construir perfiles empresariales. Además, presenta los resultados del proyecto de investigación realizado en el programa de Administración de Empresas de la Universidad de Medellín titulado Tres de los últimos Donesantioquenos", el cual comprende la construcción de las historias de vida de don Santiago Mejía Olarte, Don Carlos Manuel Echavarría Toro y de don Julio Ernesto Urrea Urrea.ABSTRACTIn studying the life and work of the three Gifts of study subjects, we find characters that have been rated by many as the best business strategists in the second half of the twentieth century, in Antioquia.
