Strategy for Action – I

The Logic and Context of Strategic Management

By: Giorgio Gandellini,alberto pezzi,Daniela Venanzi

The innovative and unique feature of this book is that it does not contain theoretical concept that cannot be translated into practice. The model which introduces this volume sets the stage for addressing the major phases of the strategic management process: environmental analysis, strategy formulation and development, strategy evaluation and control. Its conceptual and operational structure is described in the first part, together with a practically oriented definition of strategy, and a brief discussion of the logic and benefits of the judgmental modeling approach to decision making. The second part critically addresses the classical approaches to the analysis of the external and internal environmental factors, which have an impact on the “functioning” of the basic model, i.e. the structural characteristics of the industry context, and the companies’ technical, organizational, financial, and human resources, including the translation into operational models of otherwise rather theoretical concepts.

The Decision to Delist from the Stock Market

Theory and Empirical Evidence of Going Private

By: Barbara Fidanza,Ottorino Morresi,Alberto Pezzi

In an organized and organic way, this book covers all the possible theoretical and empirical facets of delisting, adding to the well-developed literature on IPOs. IPO and delisting are strictly related; the reasons for delisting may be found in the loss of the incentives that drove the firm to the public market in the past. However, the book presents unique motivations not directly related to the IPO decision. This book covers what the existing literature has not in focusing on specific aspects such as market liquidity and microstructure, listing costs, market for corporate control, corporate governance issues and so on. Of interest to academics and students, this contribution puts all pieces in order and finds a thread that can link each theory to the others.

Strategy for Action – II

Strategy Formulation, Development, and Control

By: Giorgio Gandellini,alberto pezzi,Daniela Venanzi

The innovative and unique feature of this book is that it does not contain theoretical concept that cannot be translated into practice. This second volume expands the analysis of the strategic decisions, emphasizing the importance of a sustainable competitive advantage, and proposing an integrated conceptual and operational framework (the “Strateco Dashboard”), that complements and significantly improves the recent and well-known Blue Ocean approach to strategy development. Finally, it addresses the measurement of the performance of strategy in terms of value creation, highlighting differences and similarities, as well as strengths and weaknesses, of the main metrics. Furthermore, it proposes a comprehensive and operational framework for the assessment of the financial feasibility of strategy, through the measurement of the impact of the planned strategic moves on financial needs and the evaluation of their financial sustainability.

In The Life of Luigi Giussani Alberto Savorana, who spent an important part of his life working and studying with Giussani, draws on many unpublished documents to recount who the priest was and how he lived. Giussani’s life story is particularly significant because it shares many of the same challenges, risks, and paths toward enlightenment that are described in his numerous and influential publications.

Illuminating details are shared about Giussani’s parents, professors, and friends in the seminary, the things he read, his priesthood, his experience teaching, misunderstandings and moments of recognition, and illness. Luigi Giussani considered Christianity to be a fact, a real event in human life, which takes the form of an encounter, inviting anyone and everyone to verify its relevance to life’s needs. This is what happened for so many people all over the world who recognized in this priest and leader, with his rough and captivating voice, not only a teacher to learn from, but above all a man to compare oneself with – a companion for the journey who could be trusted to answer the question: how can we live? In addition to providing the first chronological reconstruction of the life of the founder of Communion and Liberation, The Life of Luigi Giussani provides a detailed account of his legacy and what his life’s work meant to individual people and the Church.

Competition Law in Italy

By: Alberto Toffoletto,Alessandra Stabilini,Emilio De Giorgi,Roberta Guaineri,Domenico Gullo

Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of competition law and its interpretation in the Italy covers every aspect of the subject – the various forms of restrictive agreements and abuse of dominance prohibited by law and the rules on merger control; tests of illegality; filing obligations; administrative investigation and enforcement procedures; civil remedies and criminal penalties; and raising challenges to administrative decisions. Lawyers who handle transnational commercial transactions will appreciate the explanation of fundamental differences in procedure from one legal system to another, as well as the international aspects of competition law. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes enforcement, with relevant cases analysed where appropriate. An informative introductory chapter provides detailed information on the economic, legal, and historical background, including national and international sources, scope of application, an overview of substantive provisions and main notions, and a comprehensive description of the enforcement system including private enforcement. The book proceeds to a detailed analysis of substantive prohibitions, including cartels and other horizontal agreements, vertical restraints, the various types of abusive conduct by the dominant firms and the appraisal of concentrations, and then goes on to the administrative enforcement of competition law, with a focus on the antitrust authorities’ powers of investigation and the right of defence of suspected companies. This part also covers voluntary merger notifications and clearance decisions, as well as a description of the judicial review of administrative decisions. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in the Italy will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of international and comparative competition law.

When Flags Collide

By: Alberto Moretti

ENGLISH - ITALIAN TEXT Amalia is a heroin, a mother and a wife: she retraces the events of her family through three generations. She welcomes their inheritance in a hard struggle to survive between a Country's rural age at its sunset and a working-class Milan in which the war is perceived by apocalyptic aerial bombardments and alarm sirens. Of the war she talks about the anxiety and the horror: she faces losses and mourning with an aching and courageous heart, with the determination to build a future for her and her little daughter and with the certainty of the return of her never forgotten hero, Commander Guido. He, in the meanwhile, is engaged with his patrol in an epic crossing of the Sahara desert through Libya, Tunisia and Algeria, trying to bring his men to safety.

Nursing in Critical Care Setting

An Overview from Basic to Sensitive Outcomes

By: Irene Comisso,Alberto Lucchini,Stefano Bambi,Gian Domenico Giusti,Matteo Manici

This book provides essential insights into how the approach to nursing care in ICU patients has markedly changed over recent years. It shows how the focus has progressively moved away from the technical approach that characterized early ICUs to a wider personalization of patient care that also highlights general problems such as basic hygiene and general comfort. It also demonstrates that, at the same time, the nurses' role has become more professionalized, with increasing competences in assessing and managing patients' problems and measuring related outcomes. It is structured in four units: Unit 1 presents the essential elements of accurate vital-function and basic-needs assessments for ICU patients, using both instrumental monitoring and specially validated assessment tools. Unit 2 addresses basic care in ICU patients, particularly hygiene and mobilization, reflecting recent developments in nursing that focus on the importance of these activities. Unit 3 highlights the main nursing outcomes in ICU patients, particularly focusing on risk prevention and complication management. Lastly, Unit 4 discusses advances in ICU nursing, from clinical, organizational and research perspectives.

Breve matrimonio di benito, e morte

Breve matrimonio di benito, e morte

By: Alberto Camì

Il fatto accadde in una classe femminile. Benito stava celiando, come spesso usava durante le lezioni, sui diversi atteggiamenti dei due sessi. Più volte aveva ripetuto “noi-maschi-noi-maschi”, quando un’alunna ironicamente insinuò: - Noi maschi? Con la naturalezza che lo distingueva, Benito si sbottonò i pantaloni, e rimase così, accanto alla cattedra, con quel bel faccione ridente come un girasole, né più né meno che si trattasse di una regola di francese scritta alla lavagna. Il romanzo racconta la storia di Benito, un uomo di mezza età sul quale pesa l’insopprimibile marchio della diversità. Il suo matrimonio tardivo è l’inutile e goffo tentativo di accedere a quella normalità dalla quale è rimasto sempre escluso. L’immagine di uomo ridicolo continuerà ad accompagnarlo fin nella tomba, nel grottesco epilogo che lo vede ancora protagonista a dispetto del suo tragico destino. La vicenda di Benito diventa per l’io-narrante l’occasione di un disincatato viaggio nella memoria. In un registro variegato e vivace, oscillante tra ironia e riferimenti letterari, l’autore ci restituisce la nitida immagine della Sicilia degli anni ’70, una società chiusa nella quale le leggi più ferree sono quelle del conformismo.
