The Strength of the Example of the Italian Manufacturing System
During the course of 2020-2021, the Italian production system, thanks to the dynamism of single businesses or through the creation of networks, proved to be resilient and able to rapidly recover from the drops in production suffered in the initial period of the pandemic. In the months of the lockdown, various businesses launched new product lines (personal protective equipment, medical devices, air ...
The Reaction to the Shock, Defined by Change
During the first phase of the health emergency (March 9-May 4, 2000), the shutdown of economic activities caused a blockage of operations especially for smaller Italian businesses, that in our country represent a high percentage of employment and economic output of the Italian production system. Over 70 percent of businesses (73.7 percent in terms of employment) reported a reduction of turnover compared ...

Creativity in Businesses, between Myths and Good Managerial Practices
In all organizations, favoring creativity in companies and properly managing it is essential to innovate and support growth and competitive advantage.

The Four Eras of the SSN in Two Years
The growth of emergency appropriations and the high flexibility of hospital production lines are the result of the hurried transformation of the Italian National Health Service in the two years of the pandemic. The return to normal requires capitalizing on this experience, especially in light of the construction of the portfolio of projects that can be funded with the PNRR. At the management level, ...
Work and Institutions in the Global Fast Fashion Market
Economic globalization and the vigorous managerial efforts to minimize labor costs in the fast fashion sector have had the consequence of devaluing the work of employees, standardizing their duties, and gradually reducing investments in training. A comparative analysis between the United States and Italy has shown that, despite the greater regulatory safeguards present in our country, the levels of ...
Destination Value in Healthcare
In recent months, thanks to the goals indicated in the PNRR, a process of irreversible change has begun in our country, that will increasingly lead health companies to measure themselves with clear and defined goals (clinical functional, and patient experience outcomes), that are also related to costs sustained at the patient level. The change will not only affect the destination of healthcare services ...
The Great Challenge of Personnel
The response to the pandemic emergency by health companies represented a great organizational effort that brought into focus certain dysfunctions of the system and shed light on possible solutions for the future. Learning the lessons from this period means reconsidering certain organizational and managerial aspects, and in particular: the development and enhancement of new roles and skills; greater ...
Operations management as a Critical Factor
The Covid-19 emergency has refocused attention in the healthcare debate not only on the need to review physical-logistical processes, but also to streamline and digitalize administrative processes. It has also provided an opportunity to improve back-office information systems for the management of processes. This is an excellent basis for a greater spread of operations management as an approach to ...
Compare to Whom? A Reflection on Benchmarking
Benchmarking represents one of the most common management tools used by businesses. It is an extremely complex and detailed process that involves some important elements of decision-making: identifying the outside group for comparison; gathering information on that group’s practices; and choosing which among these practices are advisable/feasible to adopt internally, and how. A benchmarking analysis ...
