  • Carissimi Tutti
    Email di Annuncio – Eccezionalmente la SCUOLA approda al Forum Virtuale Women4Women - Mercoledì 12 maggio h.17:00 News del 6 Maggio 2021 Carissimi tutti, con una certa emozione e profondo senso di gratitudine voglio condividere con voi l’invito a partecipare al Forum Virtuale Women4Women - mercoledì 12 maggio h.17.00, augurandomi che siate in tanti ad aderirvi. Grazie al dott. Alfredo Ambrosetti ho avuto modo di conoscere la dott.ssa Ornella Barra, entrambi persone di grande umiltà, veri giganti al servizio della Nazione. La dott.ssa Ornella Barra, genovese di nascita, laurea in Farmacia, è oggi Chief Operating Officer, International di Walgreens Boots Alliance, a capo, col compagno di vita e di lavoro Stefano Pessina, di una realtà presente dal Nord al Sudamerica, dall’Europa alla Cina. Un gruppo che ha il suo quartier generale a Chicago, gli uffici a Londra; lo stile di Ornella è, comunque, rimasto, virtualmente, genovese. Una delle donne più influenti al mondo, come riviste di settore l'hanno definita, che ha mantenuto un’estrema riservatezza nei modi e nello stile di vita. Vale la pena citare le sue parole: «Sono cresciuta in una famiglia di imprenditori. Mio padre e mia madre hanno sempre avuto una dedizione molto forte per il lavoro e per la famiglia. Grazie al loro esempio, ho sempre saputo che nella vita bisogna impegnarsi e spesso anche sacrificarsi. Ma non è solo senso del dovere quello che mi è stato trasmesso. Certo, è un elemento importante per la formazione di un giovane, donna o uomo che sia… Ma quello che conta davvero, e che nella mia educazione ho avuto la fortuna di ricevere, è lo spirito di iniziativa.
