In the island, as in other realities in 2020, female managers have grown: the percentage is more than 18.3% compared to 2019, while the total number of executives increased by only 2.08%. But, unlike other areas of the country, the presence of female managers hired by companies is only now becoming a constant, while it had even decreased in the pre-pandemic years. "The strong growth in the number of executives in Sardinia - comments Mario Mantovani, president of Manageritalia - demonstrates how even during the pandemic structured companies have focused on managerial skills and management. For years, new female managers have been seen entering private management, chosen to training, skills and abilities ".
