Bringing Innovation to EU Public Administrations
The communication “Enhancing the European Administrative Space,” also known as “ComPAct,”[1] was adopted by the European Commission on October 25, 2023. It is innovative in that, for the first time, the Commission proposes a comprehensive set of actions in support of administrative modernization and cooperation in and between Member States at all levels (national, regional and local). The ...
A Forward-Looking Vision. Rethinking HR Strategies and Public Employee Roles
People are an organization's most adaptable asset, embodying a diverse set of skills, roles, expectations, and motivations that evolve over time. The organization can choose to be a passive bystander to this change, or it can play an active role by facilitating and managing change: in the former case, organizations that are slow to respond to contextual demands risk being unprepared for crises and ...
To Be or Not to Be: Sustainability Between Strategy, ESG, and Reporting
Driven by a series of institutional and political pressures—from Climate Conferences to the Green Deal, from Non-Financial Reporting and Sustainable Finance Directives to those on transparency and greenwashing—the debate on corporate sustainability has often become muddled and highly ideological in recent years. With over three decades of experience in sustainability management, and having observed ...
The sustainability pendulum: stakeholders set the course
Sustainability took several hits in 2025, though none delivered a knockout blow. Regulatory progress slowed in both the U.S. and Europe, and mounting political pressure might suggest a retreat. Yet the underlying trend remains intact. Stakeholder demand continues to exert powerful influence beyond regulation.

Urban regeneration has become an increasingly central lever in tackling the major challenges of our time: social inclusion, ecological transition, and economic resilience. But it is no longer enough to treat regeneration as the mere physical rehabilitation of spaces. What is needed are long-term visions capable of generating widespread well-being, building trust between public and private actors, ...
A New Approach to Sustainable Supply Chain Management
In recent years, growing regulatory pressures and stakeholder expectations have heightened the need for transparency and accountability across entire production chains, driving companies to adopt new management models. On September 10th, Italy officially adopted Directive 2022/2464/EU – known as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) – through Legislative Decree 125/2024, published ...
Why SMEs are the new front line of cybersecurity
In today’s digital ecosystem, the perception that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are “too small to be a target” is a dangerous and obsolete anachronism. The strategic reality is diametrically opposed: SMEs are not only a primary target, but are often regarded by malicious actors as the “weak point” of the entire economic value chain. Their interconnectedness with large corporations, ...
The “nervous system” of cybersecurity: data, automation, and response to reduce risk
Today’s companies face a paradox: a greater number of security tools has led to greater complexity, data overload, and critical visibility gaps, effectively increasing the risk of breaches. The average Security Operations Center (SOC) is flooded with more than 10,000 alerts per day, with an estimated 30% not even reviewed due to volume and a high false-positive rate. This phenomenon, known as alert ...
