The students of the Master in Publishing of the Arnoldo and Alberto Mondadori Foundation came to Segrate to meet the professionals of our Group and discuss with them the challenges and opportunities of the publishing industry. It was a valuable opportunity to share different experiences and to present the professional paths of those who work every day in the creation and distribution of books.
The day was opened and welcomed by Francesca Rigolio, Head of Human Resources Books & Chief Diversity Officer of the Mondadori Group, followed by Arianna Carlessi, Talent Acquisition.
It was then time for the testimonials of colleagues from our publishing houses: Francesco Bozzi (Varia and Young Adult Editor, Mondadori), Gaia Caracciolo (Communications Specialist, Sperling & Kupfer) and Emanuela Parenza (Humanities Editor, Mondadori Education). In their speeches they gave passionate and engaging accounts of their work in our group.
The meeting was concluded by Lorenzo Garavaldi, Director of Strategic Marketing, Rights and Acquisitions, Trade Books Division, who told ten exemplary stories of the publishing industry and its dynamism.
Before saying goodbye, Chiara Capuzzi, Head of Purchasing Services and Real Estate, led the students on a tour of Palazzo Niemeyer to show and appreciate the architectural value of our headquarters.
