The visit of <\/span>IAE Paris Sorbonne Business School<\/b> to Bologna Business School has been a valuable opportunity for exchange and dialogue within the <\/span>Master in HR & Organization<\/b><\/a>. A rich program of <\/span>events<\/b>, with the programmatic title Made in Dig(Italy) – Digitally managing HR in (post?)-pandemic scenario<\/b><\/strong>, characterized the week spent by the students of the French institute in Bologna, who were involved in <\/span>company visits, teamwork sessions, networking opportunities and conferences<\/b> in the historical location of Villa Guastavillani.<\/span><\/p>\n

“In an age characterized by great instability and sudden changes at the global level”, says <\/span>Co-Scientific Director of the Master in HR & Organization Ludovico Bullini Orlandi<\/b>, “we have decided to involve our students in an exchange program with IAE-Sorbonne Business School to give them the opportunity to discuss<\/span> the most relevant HR issues<\/b>. This <\/span>intensive and experiential<\/b> course, focused on the role of HR in the management of the <\/span>digitalization<\/b> of working methods, <\/span>agile<\/b> organizations and the transition towards <\/span>sustainability<\/b>, represented a further useful element for their training in the context of the Master”.<\/span><\/p>\n

After their arrival in Bologna on the 24th and the festive day of the 25th dedicated to the discovery of the city, the young guests of BBS took part in the <\/span>kick-off <\/b>in Villa Guastavillani, which saw the participation of some exceptional speakers. <\/span>Ivan Mazzei, Chief HR and Organization Officer at Salvatore Ferragamo S.p.A,<\/b> immediately brought attention to one of the Italian and French excellences, talking about the challenges that the HR sector will have to face in the <\/span>fashion industry<\/b> in a scenario where it will be essential to turn unexpected events into opportunities. <\/span>Giulio Carbone, Associate Partner at McKinsey,<\/b> also spoke about the challenges concerning a new balance in the management of working time and modes, involving the participants in an exciting simulation on the theme “<\/span>The new modalities of agile work”<\/b>. Professor<\/span> Claudia Manca, Scientific Co-Director of the Master in HR & Organization at BBS<\/b>, led an HR-thon based on the case study involving AEFFE Group, the company protagonist of the company visit the following day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Back to the Villa on Thursday, April 28 for a very special keynote speech, not only because of the presence of a speaker such as <\/span>Charise Le, Chief Human Resources Officer – Member of the Executive Committee at Schneider Electric<\/b>, but also because of the topic addressed, that of <\/span>sustainability<\/b>, increasingly central to any type of organization at any level. The speech, entitled <\/span>“The role of HR function in the Sustainability transition”<\/b>, presented the case study of Schneider Electric as an example of an efficient transition towards a more sustainable way of doing business. Charise Le started reminding the audience that the topic of <\/span>energy<\/b> is central and that it is not possible to talk about sustainability without also talking about <\/span>innovation<\/b>. That’s why Schneider Electric invests <\/span>5% of its revenues in R&D.<\/b> To contextualize these numbers, Charise Le also provided an overview of the company, which has<\/span> over 128.000 employees worldwide<\/b> and a turnover of <\/span>29 billion euros in 2021<\/b>. But investing in research is no longer enough. With the project “Life is On” Schneider aims to do much more and, above all, explained Charise Le, intends to do so by <\/span>focusing on human resources and their potentia<\/b>l. The <\/span>Environment Social Governance (ESG) strategy<\/b> put in place by the company to achieve the objectives outlined by the<\/span> SDGs<\/b> is made more efficient by a <\/span>long-term commitment<\/b> both <\/span>global<\/b> – such as attention to resources and issues related to climate change and the creation of equal opportunities in the interest of all generations – and <\/span>local<\/b>, such as the commitment to build value for communities.<\/span><\/p>\n
