    • “Paolo is simply one of the very best managers I have ever met in my over 20 years of international professional experience. An innate strategic vision, the ability to apply it with flexibility in different contexts bringing innovative and powerful ideas, a really entrepreneurial approach, and the ability to relate with diplomacy and tact with global leaders make Paolo ideally suited for the most senior positions in a wide range of roles, in both the public and private sector. It has been a real honor, other than a pleasure, having had the chance to work with him.”
