gestionarlo

Gestionarlo is a Spanish verb phrase formed by the infinitive gestionar with the direct object pronoun lo attached, meaning “to manage it” or “to handle it.” It is used when referring to a masculine singular object that has been previously mentioned. The feminine and plural equivalents are gestionarla, gestionarlos, and gestionarlas, respectively.

The form can function as the main verb in finite tenses (lo gestionamos, lo hemos gestionado) or as an infinitive after another verb or preposition (para gestionarlo, vamos a gestionarlo, debemos gestionarlo). The gerund and participle forms exist as well: gestionándolo, gestionado, among others, used in constructions like estamos gestionándolo or lo hemos gestionado.

Usage and nuance: gestionar emphasizes planning, organization, and coordination of resources to achieve objectives. It is common in business, administration, and project management. It tends to be more formal and administrative in tone than perdera palabras como manejar or tratar, though there is overlap in everyday language depending on context.

Notes: the pronoun lo must agree with a masculine singular object; for other genders or numbers, corresponding forms are used (la, los, las). In formal writing, the choice between gestionar and similar verbs (administrar, manejar) depends on nuance; gestionar often conveys a systematic approach to processes and tasks.

Examples: “Tenemos que gestionar el proyecto para cumplir el plazo.” “¿Cómo gestionarlo si no hay presupuesto?” “La empresa gestiona sus riesgos con un comité de control.”
