Background

About Gianni Salvetti

The marathon is a long-distance race that is run for 30 km with the legs, 10 km with the head, 2 km with the heart and 195 m with tears in the eyes". Anonymous This phrase captures the main aspects of my personality: endurance, passion, diligence, determination to cross the finish line, desire to share joys and sorrows with other people (running unites people both in training and during the race). If the Bachelor’s degree in “Business Administration” can be compared to training for a race, the Master's degree in “Marketing and Market Research” can be viewed as the take-off of my professional marathon and my internal growth process. I chose this course of studies because the idea of combining statistics with the analysis of people behaviour (customers in this case) has always fascinated me. During my university studies I realized that taking lectures and exams was not enough to get ready for the world of work: I therefore decided to do a 6 months Erasmus in Leon (Spain)- the most formative experience of my life - and write my Master’s thesis within the framework of a curricular internship. Once I graduated (June 2016, mark: 110 cum Laude) my dream was to work for a multinational company in the hope of being able to confront myself right away with different (though interconnected) tasks and learn how to deal with the related business problems. And so it happened. In November 2016 I joined the FCA group: after a 6-months internship in FCA Network development, I worked for one year in Mopar as Warranty Cost Specialist and moved for another year in FCA Bank as Business Intelligence Data analyst; since September 2019, I have been working in Maserati as Aftersales Commercial Controller. I believe that all these different experiences enriched my professional and cultural background: they improved my ability to collect, process, manage and interpret large amounts of data, allowed me to get to know various business stages with their costs and revenues, given me the opportunity to interface with a lot of people working in different fields and learn from each of them. Last, but not least, the need to reinvent myself several times give me the opportunity to develop the ability of being responsive to very different demands and have an improvement of my mental elasticity. As in a marathon, at work I channel all my energy to perform at best the task assigned to me and attain the goals set by the company.
