Michele Ciavola “The Great Resignation”

A grand closing for Stefano Croci’s year with a highly prestigious speaker, Michele Ciavola, HR Director of Eldor Corporation.

This is a leading group in the automotive sector with headquarters in Orsenigo and branches in various parts of the world, from China to the USA, with 3,850 employees. It is estimated that over 300 million vehicles currently have Eldor components. As senior Human Resources Manager, the Speaker is responsible for selecting personnel, ensuring proper management so that it is functional to the company’s strategic objectives, establishing career development programs, compensation, and training plans. The core on which the company operates is culture understood as a combination of economics and ethics. After presenting the company, the Speaker moved on to the evening’s topic, “the great resignation.” Following the analyses of management consulting firms such as McKinsey and Randstad, he described a very widespread phenomenon in the world (in Europe alone, 28 million resignations, particularly in the field of Digital Technology) and also present in Italy where, contrary to the search for a permanent position that marked generations, now guiding workers’ choices, particularly those under 40, are no longer career and salary but work-life sustainability. However, companies must be able to intercept their employees’ expectations, otherwise they risk losing talented young people and suffering from high turnover. They must therefore ensure greater flexibility, communication, involvement, and interest in workers, that is, keep existing workers happy, and all this will be the task of HR capable of reviewing the company organization and changing the overall vision. Much interest and questions from those present for a current topic described with competence
