“What they say about me…”

Abbiamo chiesto a Roberto (Zanni) di aiutarci con la composizione del nostro primo Piano Strategico. È stato un processo intenso ma molto utile, tanto che lo abbiamo ricontattato per un aggiornamento e sviluppo. Roberto ha la grande capacità di far emergere molto rapidamente i punti critici, focalizzando l’attività sui temi davvero strategici. Trovo che la sua comunicazione diretta - unita ad una passione che traspare fin dal primo incontro – sia molto efficace per raggiungere risultati in tempi brevi. La sua grande esperienza gli consente di acquisire subito credibilità agli occhi dei managers coinvolti nel processo e di trascinare il team di lavoro verso l’obbiettivo da raggiungere.

I collaborated with Roberto for the drafting of our Business Strategic Plan: the experience was intense and engaging (and Roberto's open and direct approach played an essential role). Roberto stimulated us with his ability to see the overall picture, always pushing us to the "strategic" part of the work, while we often tend to fall into the "tactical" side: his outstanding experience in this field has made the work credible and solid among all the collaborators involved and allowed us to clearly outline the possible lines of future development of our Company.

I worked closely with Roberto in the construction of the first Strategic Plan in the history of the Company, a quite delicate task. With great charisma and professionalism, he led the whole organization in a clear and well-defined process, stimulating alternative perspectives. He led all the management to deep reflections and moments of great discussion which then highlighted the real strategic issues and, consequently, the best "course of action” for the following years.

Roberto has a sartorial approach, attentive to the real business needs of his clients. His experiences and rich skills are made available to his clients without forcing and without rigid pre-established schemes. Vision, focus, excellent ability to analyze and read critical issues are his winning weapons, combined with his extraordinary humanity.

As part of a broader strategic consultancy in the Brand Strategy area, I had the privilege of being supported - as Marketing Director - by Roberto as a personal coach for my professional growth. Roberto’s overview and analytical skills, his extensive business experience, as well as his empathy and communication skills were the elements that most contributed to my growth, allowing me to acquire more rounded skills.

I was lucky enough to meet Roberto thanks to a common contact. I immediately appreciated his direct style, typical of who – like him – has always lived in an international context. At that moment, I was trying to evolve the commercial organization of the Group by creating a common identity that worked towards defined objectives. With his intervention, Roberto actively supported me both strategically but also operationally during the adjustments made with the team. I believe that his outstanding experience, combined with the ability to know how to move within very different contexts, are an added value that is usually difficult to find in external consultants.

I had the opportunity of working with Roberto during the drafting of our Business Strategic Plan. It was a challenge and a truly stimulating opportunity for discussion. I appreciated Roberto's clear overview and his great ability to grasp the essential aspects of the business on which to focus the attention. His very high-level managerial background makes him a credible speaker, a forward-looking mentor with an extraordinary know-how.

We turned to Roberto to support some key figures of our Management Team through a business coaching program. Thanks to his great experience, also gained in the business environment, and to the excellent results he obtained, Roberto was able to create and transfer a method through which to replicate these positive results, focusing both on the strategic component and on the methodology. He was able, therefore, to help Managers in setting up a systemic vision, embracing constant change, the secret of business growth.

I had the pleasure of working with Roberto on a mentoring project at the beginning of my new corporate role. Roberto was able to listen to me and identify my areas of improvement, supporting me in becoming aware of the change that the role required. He provided me with insights and organizational suggestions, the result of his experience and his ability to quickly grasp the critical aspects of a problem. His empathy makes him an attentive and interested interlocutor in personal relationships and make working with him a great opportunity for human as well as professional growth.
