People. Curiosity. Courage. These are the three key elements that today’s leaders should really focus on. That’s what Amplifon CEO Enrico Vita said during his speech on Graduation Day for the MBA and Executive MBA programs at the School of Management, Milan Polytechnic.
During the ceremony, held at Teatro Dal Verme, the CEO running the global leader in the hearing care retail industry delivered an important message to the graduates who are about to enter the professional world: “People, curiosity and courage are three essential elements of a leadership journey that technology will never be able to replace”.
Enrico Vita emphasized that in this uncertain world marked by geopolitical challenges, artificial intelligence and sustainability issues, business leaders must show courage since every career has difficult moments and real growth happens outside our comfort zone. He also added that “the world is changing faster than our certainties,” which is why “we must never stop being curious, learning and challenging ourselves”.
Finally, the CEO reminded the audience that “leadership doesn’t mean having all the answers” but rather knowing how to choose the right people to build a strong team, which often means surrounding ourselves with people who are more skilled than us.
