How Gennaro is building a better working world
“By first thinking about the impact, beyond traditional business metrics, before making a decision or providing a recommendation. It’s critical to be self-aware of how our everyday actions, at work, or at home, may impact others positively or negatively.
Ultimately, I want to be a part of change, and lead the way to a better working world.”
