... and not to bank?
I'm reading the three major Italian newspapers (The Sun, the Courier and the Republic) and the interpretations revolves around the discourse of power. Directly or indirectly. Perhaps because of the background and talk about the power behind the power struggles is intriguing, makes you feel important. And 'as if suddenly, everyone would open their own (small) area of \u200b\u200bself-portraits ...
I do not know if the Board of Unicredit has really decided the objectives of having power over the bank, but from reading the newspapers it seems yes.
I see, in short, where the emperor in any reference to power. And then it seems to me that something must be said aloud now we can not look, talk decide on the future of the banking system with logic, culture, aspiration to power.
The reason is simple, simple system. Obviously if you think in a systemic approach. That is, using the tools that provide the most current systemic theories.
The battle (and, therefore, the discourse of power) makes sense when talking about an institution that you know will not need to be changed to keep the power he holds (cheap, but not only) in time. Acquire power over an institution of this type ensures that you can enjoy the power that this institution holds.
But to speak and seek the power of an enterprise, which should not change radically in order to maintain its share of power, but its ability to produce value, blocking any process of evolution or distorts it. And it gets as a result, to destroy its ability to produce those values \u200b\u200byou want, militarily, to conquer.
I believe that the current events afflicting the banking system (not only the resignation of Profumo, but also, for example, come under investigation for summits of the IOR and, in particular, its Chairman Ettore Gotti Tedeschi) should, instead of telling the stories of power, triggering a major debate on that we want to build for our future (Italian? European?) banking system.
I realize that the second debate by the "savage meal" in a battle of power (which could also be totally or partially constructed by the media. I suggest you read the literature that reveals the reality often must compete with the story of reality) is difficult. I know journalists who, for a lifetime, living on the power struggles. If a hammer the whole world is made of nails hammered down and ... .. for their entire economic life is a battle for power. ... They have knowledge and language just to describe the battles for power. And to hell with the knowledge, technology, entrepreneurship.
will also be difficult to leave the telling of the power and start the design process, but it is necessary and urgent. As we have built with our hands the crisis we are experiencing (not least practicing banking model that was for more just before the crisis, arguing with the culture and practice of power) so now is the time to use our hands to build a new and different development.
will have to be that hands are not guided by a culture of power, but by a passion for designing a new world. In particular, they shall be guided by new knowledge, that is, models and metaphors that are different from those used by the current ruling class. We refer to the models and metaphors of complexity.
But materialized. We intend to initiate this debate project. In the coming days we will prepare un documento di dibattito. Esso non conterrà proposte, ma solo domande che avranno l’obiettivo di guidare verso la progettazione di nuove strade che portano ad un sistema bancario nuovo per struttura, prassi, servizi, ruolo sociale, cultura. Proporremo queste domande a tutti gli Stakeholders più rilevanti del sistema bancario italiano: ai manager che lo guidano, ma anche ai suoi azionisti; ai sindacati e a tutti i movimenti che hanno interesse allo sviluppo del sistema bancario; ai suoi clienti, soprattutto alle imprese; ai politici, agli opinion leaders, agli uomini dei media.
I tanti dialoghi che costruiremo con i diversi Stakeholders will be reflected in many interviews that we publish on our blog. The interviews will be incentives for comments and reflections. Periodically (monthly) will publish a newsletter which will offer a summary of this debate. Regularly (twice a year) will organize workshops to review progress in the presence and formalizing a synthesis of ideas that appeared in the debate.
Our blog is also where we will make available "knowledge resources" as raw material for thought for all those who want to take this debate as an opportunity rather than a repetition of the same eternal, eternal, immutable ideas. But of those who will see this debate as a moment of growth and personal development. Development is not built if the protagonists of this construction will not accept that the first step is an enrichment of their knowledge, thoughts and hopes.
The first one is the contribution that Value Ferguson. It will offer the 'Summary Italian Italian text with translation by the Bank of Italy: is a document which we have summarized some songs that will make many think. Also because the relationship Ferguson has been prepared and distributed a decade ago. And in the economic debate social and have been reminded recently by Marco Vitale just fine in his last book, "Moving towards the future."
