Editoriale Positive attitude and leadership. That's what some people among us own and prove when they, in silence, use their energy to work for the benefit of our membership and of the whole Italian Community. People like them usually don't like too much publicity but I guess they'll forgive me if I turn the spotlight their way for a second or two. They deserve the attention of our public because they represent a different positive aspect of novelty in our chamber and in the business environment around us. They are indirectly working for you, too, so read on. I'll start with Marco Ferri. His contribution to the Chamber has been remarkable in the past under many aspects, but he's working now more than ever (with Nevio) to allow us to be the facilitator between the Florida Administration and the highest representatives of the Italian Economic System. Please read the article on the Florida fact-finding mission to Italy to learn more on the subject. Second is Dr. Paolo Romanelli. He is contributing to give life to the First Italo-Panamerican Medical Congress in Florida on biotechnology, cardiology, rare diseases, neurology and oncology, with the objective of bringing together the Italian, U.S. and Latin-American medical communities and work on common projects. He represents an industry that was completely unknown to our chamber until he first joined our Board. Third, and last, is in reality not a person but two. They're Mr. Giovanni Turturiello, Deputy Consul General and Director of Commercial Affairs, and Mr. Roberto Tagliero, Trade Attaché at the Italian Consulate in Miami. They are the front line of the business and trade branch of the Italian Consulate in Miami, and unfortunately for them, they are operative enough to be in direct contact with a lot of our activities, which often costs them way too much of their personal time. They are the expression of the managerial approach to public service, their help is invaluable and I am sure that without them our Chamber would not be the same. To all of you, thanks for the exceptional work. Our Community needs such good examples and good leaders. Alessandro Rancati Chair, Communication Committee. Attitudine positiva e leadership. Qualcuno tra noi ce l’ha, e lo dimostra impegnandosi quotidianamente, senza chiacchiere, per il bene dell’intera Comunitá Italiana. Persone che non amano la pubblicitá, ma che questa volta dovranno portare pazienza, mentre dedico loro questo editoriale. Meritatamente, perché rappresentano ciascuno un diverso, positivo aspetto di novitá nella nostra Camera e del mondo imprenditoriale e pubblico della Florida. Marco Ferri è il primo sotto i riflettori. Il suo contributo per la Camera è sempre stato degno di nota, ma sta lavorando ora piú che mai (insieme a Nevio) perché la IACC diventi mediatrice tra l’Amministrazione Pubblica della Florida ed i piú importanti rappresentanti del panorama economico e produttivo italiano. Per maggiori dettagli, rimando all’articolo sulla missione della Florida in Italia. Il Dr. Paolo Romanelli, invece, è impegnato a dare vita al primo Congresso Medico Italo-Panamericano in Florida, su temi quali biotecnologia, cardiologia, malattie rare, neurologia e oncologia. L’obiettivo è coinvolgere le comunitá mediche italiane, statunitensi e latino americane in progetti comuni. Il Dr. Romanelli rappresenta l’incontro tra la nostra Camera ed un’industra prestigiosa e a noi finora sconosciuta. In ultimo, una persona che in realtá è un tandem: Giovanni Turturiello, Vice Console Generale e Direttore del Dipartimento Commerciale, e Roberto Tagliero, responsabile dei Servizi Commerciali al Consolato Italiano di Miami. Sono la prima linea del fronte Commerciale del Consolato, e sfortunatamente per loro, sono sufficientemente operativi da essere esposti ad un gran numero di attivitá che coinvolgono la Camera, il che spesso costa una parte considerevole del loro tempo libero. Rappresentano l’espressione di un approccio manageriale al servizio pubblico, il loro supporto é inestimabile e sono sicuro che senza di loro la nostra Camera non sarebbe la stessa. A tutti loro, un grazie per l’eccezionale impegno. La Comunitá degli italiani in Florida ha bisogno di buoni esempi e buoni leader come voi. .3 .it italian trade
