4.Manager and Il Sole 24 ORE Group: partnership for the promotion of corporate culture kicks off

Stefano Cuzzilla, Presidente di 4.Manager

"The partnership with the Il Sole 24 ORE Group stems from a clear conviction: corporate culture is a decisive factor for the competitiveness of the production system," says Stefano Cuzzilla, President of 4.Manager. "In a phase of profound transformation, companies are called upon to evolve not only technologically, but also organisationally, adopting models that are more solid, inclusive and capable of attracting talent. In this path, management has a central role, because it connects vision, people and results. Italian manufacturing is a place where innovation, skills and culture come together to generate value. Today, more than ever, it is necessary to strengthen this awareness and return centrality to those who produce, design and guide companies. With this initiative we want to create a stable space for analysis and comparison, capable of telling the enterprise for what it really is: an engine of development, innovation and social cohesion. Because the most urgent challenge is not only economic, but cultural: it concerns the country's ability to recognise and enhance its potential."

"In an international political and economic scenario as difficult and uncertain as the current one," comments Federico Silvestri, CEO of the Il Sole 24 ORE Group, "it is necessary for Italian companies to respond proactively and, to this end, a simple good strategy is not enough. What is needed is an organisation capable of interpreting change, reacting consistently and maintaining internal and external confidence. And this is where corporate culture comes into play as a compass to give direction. When markets become unpredictable, companies risk moving in a fragmented manner, chasing successive emergencies. Shared values, a clear mission and a common vision, on the other hand, make it possible to make quick decisions without losing identity. And precisely communicating the advantages, still too often underestimated, of corporate culture as a fundamental asset and the tools to implement it correctly is the contribution that the partnership between our Group and 4.Manager wants to make to our industry to support it in its resilience. Because a strong production system is the basis for the future and the well-being of our entire society'.
