Our experience at the EFI’s forum, exploring intergenerationality and wellbeing

Three tables comparing different generations. Over 20 organizations, including companies and institutions, involved. Group discussions and exchanges to rethink the future and work through the lens of wellbeing. And a strong drive to turn differences into opportunities.

Our experience at the Wellbeing Happiness Forum gave us valuable key takeaways. A day lived first and foremost as Knowledge Partner of the initiative by EFI and OMM Business, but also as facilitators alongside ASFOR – Associazione Italiana per la Formazione Manageriale for a fruitful dialogue on the expectations and practices needed to build common ground for redefining the future of organizations.

Intergenerationality as a Competitive Advantage

Common ground emerged alongside diverse perspectives, as well as a strong interest in gaining a deeper understanding of oneself and others within a constantly evolving work environment. The theme of collaboration and being able to rely on trusting relationships continues to be key, as we have also found in our work at Miticoro on two initiatives close to our hearts: the Senior Mentorship program and the creation of the New Leaders Platform community.

Corporate Wellbeing: Next Challenges

With one mission: to address the topic of #wellbeing consciously, without reducing it to a mere checklist of benefits, but reconnecting it directly to the life stages people go through.

For organizations, this represents a decisive shift in perspective requiring new approaches, active listening skills, and the ability to anticipate the needs of employees, who are increasingly balancing mental health, family, caregiving, professional growth, leadership, engagement, as well as personal challenges and changes.

We are delighted to have further strengthened our synergy with Ecosistema Formazione Italia – EFI following our partnership for the People Tech Forum, and we are ready to look to the future together to launch new high-impact projects.
