Interview with Mario Del Vecchio"},"content":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We asked <\/span><b>Mario Del Vecchio, BBS Alumnus and Business Manager<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> at<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.enginium.eu\/\"> <b>Enginium<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, the tech soul of <\/span><b>Gi Group Holding<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which recently joined the Bologna Business School business network, to analyze the <\/span><b>job market<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for us with a focus on issues related to HR, training, and placement. Here is what he told us.<\/span><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the current market environment, what are the elements that emerge most prominently with respect to the possibility of building a valuable career?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The market today is <\/span><b>candidate driven<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which increases <\/span><b>competition among companies<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in their ability to attract the most in-demand talent, to offer them attractive propositions, growth prospects, and continued employability. In an extremely uncertain and changing environment, the role of companies therefore lies in their ability to <\/span><b>improve their resilience<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> both in terms of <\/span><b>business<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and from the <\/span><b>talent attraction and retention <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">point of view. It therefore becomes essential to understand the new needs of employees and managers. But this is not a natural or easy process for the entrepreneur and the company. Indeed, what the candidate looks for and evaluates as attractive in a company&#8217;s offering has changed profoundly. In addition to remuneration, <\/span><b>several factors<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> come into play. Today, for example, the notion of work as an <\/span><b>opportunity for personal fulfillment<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but also the need to share values with the company, has regained strength. Work loses its totalizing dimension to make room for the desire to pursue a <\/span><b>lifestyle<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> balanced between employment, personal interests and family needs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At this historical moment, we are required to rethink the role that people, companies and institutions play within the economic and social reality in order to cope with all the <\/span><b>transformations<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and changes in the world of work. Players, including a business like ours, committed to generating sustainable social and economic value, must <\/span><b>support people<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> so that they can remain professionally active throughout their lives, promoting <\/span><b>tangible, replicable, and measurable models<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that contribute to the realization of sustainable world of work development.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given the context you outlined, what, from your perspective, is the challenge for education?\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We believe that <\/span><b>education<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> should be <\/span><b>at the center of the debate on employment in Italy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and effectively respond to the needs of companies: this is the only way to substantially intervene on people&#8217;s employability and on phenomena such as <\/span><b>skill mismatch<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>skill shortage<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In this sense, it is essential that the different education protagonists <\/span><b>interact and work in synergy<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to ensure a training offering of excellence, which is consistent with the reference market and educates to the recognition of the <\/span><b>personal and social value <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">of work.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Professional and managerial training as well as the <\/span><b>qualification<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><b>re-skilling<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of people has become a key element for the survival and evolution of any organization and must be pursued and supported with <\/span><b>specific processes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and tools capable of motivating and facilitating continuous learning not only at the personal level but also at the organizational level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this conviction, and strengthened by the experience of the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Palazzo del Lavoro<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, we have overseen the development of the Gi Group Training Hub, a space entirely dedicated to training and orientation that aims to be a free and open place for discussion and sharing, a meeting point that provides the necessary conditions so that we can establish a structure built on the topic of training.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What are the growing sectors and opportunities that should not be underestimated in the current market environment?<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Today the leading sectors of the labor market are <\/span><b>Industry 4.0, Engineering, Telco, ICT, Logistics, GDO, <\/b>and<b> Healthcare<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This is also in light of the two ongoing transitions, the green and the digital ones. It is estimated that in the next few years the Italian labor market will require <\/span><b>2.4-2.7 million employees to have energy saving and environmental sustainability abilities<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, and in parallel, there will be a growing and transversal demand for <\/span><b>digital skills<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which will be required by businesses and the Public Administration (<\/span><b>2.1-2.3 million employees between 2022 and 2026<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). However, today the <\/span><b>mismatch of skills<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with those required by companies is a growing phenomenon and one of the main causes of the non-sustainability of the current labor market.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this scenario of skill shortage and mismatch, it is not sustainable to neglect <\/span><b>women&#8217;s skills<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and not find solutions to the <\/span><b>gender gap<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> phenomenon. Eurostat estimates that <\/span><b>70 percent of the employed female population is concentrated in only 7 out of 21 sectors<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. Added to this is the topic of <\/span><b>young women studying STEM subjects<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, for whom Italy lags far behind: <\/span><b>24.9 percent share of 25-34-year-old graduates in science and technology (STEM) subject areas, among young men one in three graduates (36.8 percent), while among young women only one in six (17 percent).<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The role that Gi Group Holding plays in the labor market is also to <\/span><b>foster the dialogue between the world of business and the world of education<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The partnership established with Bologna Business School goes precisely in this direction and is enhanced thanks to the <\/span><b>shared values<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> between our two entities and the prestige that this institution boasts nationally and globally.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We asked Mario Del Vecchio, BBS Alumnus and Business Manager at Enginium, the tech soul of Gi Group Holding, which recently joined the Bologna Business School business network, to analyze the job market for us with a focus on issues related to HR, training, and placement.
