Imagine. Transform. Perform.

“I believe the future is about creating spaces of meaningful connections not by building walls, but by bridging affinities that cut across disciplines, professions, sectors, and cultures. For this to happen we need optimistic leaders, thinkers and doers who understand the urgency of our times, who think beyond the ‘here and the now’ and put their skills, passions, and talents to work in a collective effort to make a difference. This is the greatest transformation I embarked on, not only because I believe it is possible, but because I believe it is necessary!”

Paola Granati

With 25 years of global corporate HR experience, a life long journey in entrepreneurial projects and a multicultural background, I have had the privilege to lead numerous projects and take on important  leadership roles that always had four things in common: change, transformation, people and performance.

Thanks to these unique experiences I developed a deep understanding and expertise on  how to lead complex change initiatives and leverage leadership, organization design and team performance to achieve maximum results.

Invest In Culture.

The uncertainties of the future require flexible workforce models and adaptable cultures that truly put learning & development as well internal and external mobility at center stage. The promise of “attracting, developing and retaining” talent is no longer credible nor sustainable.

New forms of contracting will be needed as talents will be moving in and out of your organization seeking new opportunities and you will be looking at new org structures and skills to adapt to the digital revolution.

Testimonials

Paola Granati is the amazing professional that we all seek to be in our lives both personally and as we embark our career journeys. Her passions run deep in the belief in our society, our talents and that which drives us to be our best. Consequently, she serves as a great advisor to business leaders, coaching partner for strategic designs and… A consulting friend to be a thought partner on finding our purpose.

I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Paola for many years. Encountering her first in her role as an HR executive leader. I had the chance to watch her from afar and learned and grew from seeing her approach on how to lead indirectly and directly. From there, our friendship blossomed and we’ve become coaching partners for our mutual entrepreneur ventures.

It is this aspect of consideration of people and culture that we see in her creative side: in her music business, vocal talent and tenacious way of getting the right things done. It is this variety of person that makes any association with Paola the best you will ever have!

Sandra SilvaArea Leader People at Sonae MC – Porto, Portugal

Paola is a superb people’s leader. She challenges you to think creatively on how to improve things, do more with less, improve efficiency, always with a Company hat on, but putting the person at the Center of everything. I felt that, the time I spent with her, I grew both professionally and personally. She stretched me to think in a more diverse way, to find solutions, not problems and, to be a better skilled person in life. Grazie mile Paola.
