Four days, two schools, one theme that goes beyond the classroom. From March 16 to 19, the Professional Master in <\/span>HR & Organization<\/b> at <\/span>Bologna Business School<\/b> welcomed participants from <\/span>IAE Paris Sorbonne Business School<\/b> for an international exchange focused on <\/span>diversity<\/b> and <\/span>organizational culture<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

The programme: <\/span>Hacking Culture and Diversity Management<\/span><\/i>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Starting from blind spots<\/b>
\n<\/b> The programme, designed and led by Claudia Manca, Associate Professor at BBS and DTU, revolved around a challenging question: what are we unable to see, and why?<\/span><\/p>\n

Reflecting on personal <\/span>blind spots<\/b> became the starting point for powerful insights. Sarai Diaz, a Master participant, describes a seemingly simple exercise:<\/span><\/p>\n

“We were asked to list the people we trust the most. I realized that most of them shared my nationality and were close to my age. An unconscious pattern, hard to see until it is pointed out.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Recognizing the pattern is the first step. Changing it requires intention and, often, the right context.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Inside companies: Hera and DEI as strategy<\/b>
\n<\/b> On the second day, participants visited <\/span>Gruppo Hera<\/b>, a leading Italian multi-utility, where Alessandro Camilleri, HR & Organization Director, and Alessandra Galeotti, Diversity Manager, shared how the company manages its HR strategy with a focus on creating shared value.<\/span><\/p>\n

The discussion went beyond best practices, offering a concrete view of how <\/span>inclusion<\/b>, equity and people management translate into organizational choices with visible impact.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Lamborghini: when DEIA shapes product culture<\/b>
\n<\/b> On the third day, participants met Lucia Ghirardini, Head of People Experience, Culture and Inclusion, and Antonella Gioia, DEI and CSR Manager at <\/span>Automobili Lamborghini<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Their contribution showed how a global brand, with a strong identity, is addressing <\/span>diversity<\/b> in a structural way across processes, corporate culture and brand narrative.<\/span><\/p>\n

The session moved beyond \u201chow to do diversity\u201d to explore how organizational identity can be redesigned to become truly inclusive.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

DEIA as a strategic framework<\/b>
\n<\/b> Across academic insights and company testimonials, a clear message emerged. As Sarai Diaz summarized:<\/span><\/p>\n

“DEIA is not an additional topic. It is a <\/span><\/i>strategic framework<\/i><\/b> that should be embedded in the DNA of an organization. When it truly works, it drives innovation, strengthens engagement and enhances reputation.”<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

A perspective that participants\u2014future HR professionals from diverse backgrounds\u2014translated into final presentations, turning insights into concrete analyses and proposals.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

An exchange that creates value in both directions<\/b>
\n<\/b> The collaboration between <\/span>Bologna Business School<\/b> and <\/span>IAE Paris Sorbonne Business School<\/b> demonstrated that diversity in the classroom is not an abstract value, but a real working condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

Different backgrounds, perspectives and questions that would not emerge in a homogeneous group: exactly the starting point of the programme\u2014and perhaps its most lasting outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
