Since December 2012, he is appointed Deputy Head of International Retail Banking Division, responsible for the supervision of the entities located in Central and Eastern Europe.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Being an Italian in a French Group is, from a personal perspective, a real enrichment. And I think that I&#8217;ve also managed to bring my &#8220;made in Italy&#8221; touch with its values and human qualities to this Group. More generally, diversity is a source of dynamism that promotes innovation and creativity, essential in the competitive sector in which Societe Generale operates. Diversity is also a real commercial advantage, allowing the company to be a reflection of society and thus closer to its customers, their expectations and needs. Finally, passion for the business overcomes cultural barriers&#8221;.<\/p>\n<div style='clear:both; height:20px' ><\/div>\n<div class=\"shortcode1-2\"><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dm-c.it\/?lang=en#dmc-abroad\" target=\"_self\" class=\"gdl-button shortcode-large-button\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#c61e1e; border-color:#bc1c1c; \">Featured<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"shortcode1-2\"><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/dm-c.it\/abroadto-community-italian-companies\/abroad-to-article-archive\/\" target=\"_self\" class=\"gdl-button shortcode-large-button\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF; background-color:#c61e1e; border-color:#bc1c1c; \">Archive<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Being an Italian in a French group I consider it a great personal enrichment.
