THE SKILLS OF THE OPEN MANAGER WORLD CAFÉ ONLINE ON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 6, 2022

WORLD CAFÉ IDEAS IN DISCUSSION: OPEN MOOd ExTENDED

The competitive landscape has undergone a significant transformation in recent years due to the proliferation of digitalization and data generation processes, both in primary and support activities.

The socio-economic situation we are facing seems to have accelerated the ongoing change, highlighting the limitations and constraints of many still widely prevalent organizational models and prompting a profound reflection on managerial culture.

The Open MOOd project, carried out for Fondirigenti by CIS Reggio Emilia in collaboration with Forma del Tempo and Sistemi Formativi Confindustria, has analyzed the impact that the "Open" management style can have on companies to increase the performance and success of the "Open Organization."

The study involved more than 300 companies and 400 managers to identify the profile of the Open Manager, a new figure capable of creating formal and informal networks oriented towards research, innovation, and the creation of new market perspectives, as well as fully leveraging the complementarities between production processes, technological know-how, and human resources.

To open the doors to innovation, decisive factors are the attitudes and behaviors that managers and, in particular, entrepreneurs adopt at work in terms of openness, creating useful connections, and allowing employees to take responsibility in proposing and developing new ideas.

How does the Open Manager promote horizontal leadership? How does it support entrepreneurship? How does it facilitate continuous change and innovation?

We will seek answers to these questions in the World Café that will take place on Wednesday, September 28, 2022, starting at 10:30 AM at the HTTC- Human & Technology Training Center, Via Sicilia, 19 – Reggio Emilia.

What is a World Café? It is an informal communication technique in which members of a community engage in discussions at different tables, taking turns to discuss and develop new thoughts.

The meeting will be an opportunity to deepen the understanding of Open Management and identify effective innovative approaches for operating in increasingly complex, interconnected business environments.
