HUMAN RESOURCES, COMPETENCES & LEADERSHIP (HR):

Recent years have undoubtedly been of great discontinuity: organizations are facing a continuing state of unprecedented pressure, volatility and uncertainty, alongside the challenges posed by new generations entering the work market. Radically different operating models, leadership styles and competences are needed, which are based on Human Resources who are increasingly accustomed to managing "by purpose" and not "by individual tasks": the ability to interpret new situations, take coordinated initiative and swiftly decide even in the absence of certain and unambiguous information becomes a fundamental skill and a critical survival and success factor.
