“Genoa is my cradle. I live in a villa that has windows on all four sides. When I open them, I symbolically open myself to the world. Then I dedicate myself to meditation: it is my elevator to happiness, because it allows me to observe from above, with detachment but also care, the quality of personal and professional ties and projects. The main question with which I inaugurate every day is: “What do I want from life?”. I have been a Buddhist for 22 years“.

«In EdiliziAcrobatica I have the responsibility for human resources, in practice I manage 150 offices, in Italy and in France, but I have chosen not to have one of my own. I prefer to meet clients and colleagues on informal occasions and places, such as at the bar. I care about people not for their rolebut as individuals. Everyone is the bearer of a talent and a wealth. As I told in the book Spiritual Business, at the heart of my business model is the attention to the value of each individual person. The emotional potential is always more important than what is written in a resume ».

“I’m petite and nibble often. In the bag there is no shortage of croissants, donuts, chips. My ideal lunch is a sandwich with salami and cheese on a bench in the sun, with the libeccio wind, sipping a coke from a glass bottle ».

“I am responsible for other companies, three for managerial training and one for cosmetics. With the help of the Covey model (proposed by Stephen Covey, an American businessman, ed), I divide my commitments into four quadrants: important-urgent; important-not urgent; not important-urgent; not important-not urgent. I concentrate more willingly on the second. As US General and President Dwight Eisenhower said: “What is important is rarely urgent and what is urgent is rarely important ““.

“Because of an illness, I went to a lot of hospitals up to the age of 33. The hell I went through was a prerequisite for achieving today’s great results. I believe poison can be turned into medicine if we “align” our actions with the signals that come from body, mind, spirit. How can I do? For each appointment, marked on the paper diary with a pen of a different color, I also write down the result I want to achieve: this helps me to focus on priorities “.

‘Never in bed before one. I monitor company data. On weekends, I turn into Captain Marvel. In 2016 I started the Super Heroes Acrobatic project (supereroiacrobatici.com) to give a smile to hospitalized children. More recently, together with some female entrepreneurs, I founded the non-profit organization “L’impresa è Donna”, which is responsible for supporting women who do business through study and training courses ».
