Women in companies

[Sara]

Hi guys and girls! After the last conference of Cebora group, in Bologna, we started a discussion, in forum "La storia nel futuro 2008" about the figure of women in a company, their opportunities to work and ability to get on career in life. I'd like to continue better this discussion and have your opinions. Furthermore today I have followed to the program "Mattino 5", in which the discussion was just about this topic....it is a really topical interest! I think that, surely, women have a lot of duties, as people, wifes, mothers and so on... but we live in a modern society, in which women's figure had absolutely changed, respect some years ago. In particular there are some women that they really succeeded to get on career. For example Luciana Migliavacca(managing director of Medusa's Video), Adele Bandera (managing director of Morgagni33), Rita Cervi (sales director of Walt Disney Studio Motin P.I.), Linda Spada ( new comunication director of BCG, The Boston Consulting Group) and Donatella Ceccarelli ( she works in the Global Wealth Management of Merrill Lynch). It's sure that Italy is really far from american or european countries societies and their level of womens' employment and power. It's enough to think to Hilary Clinton, Angela Merkel, Cristina Kirchner, or in the past to Evita Peron! I hope in the future....!

Like president Marcegaglia said yesterday the situation we have now is difficult but politics has really a chanche, we hope they will not fail! However I think that young generation could do a lot but if there are not the necessary condition I consider important that the good part of it must realize itself where these conditions are present and this is not a selfish approach!!!

The new president of Confindustria speak a lot about progresss of italian companies.... I'm agree with her, it's necessary that Confindustria collaborates with the Government in order carry out necessary reforms, but in the same time company must be independent, self - governing, out from political parties. Actually companies can have ambitious project, in Italy fortunately, there are now a favourable situation for put into practice these so expected progress.
