Joinrs US’ Post

Did you know Reverse Mentoring? 👀 It's an increasingly common practice in companies through which a younger employee shares his or her digital skills with a more senior colleague who may not be as up-to-date in certain aspects. There are several benefits, we will share six of them with you below. Is Reverse Mentoring being promoted in your company? Let us know your personal experience about it 😊

😎 Today let's talk about our Executive Project Coordinator Lodovico Graepel😎 Lodovico is responsible for transversal and international projects. He moved to Milan 10 years ago for his university studies, he graduated in managerial economics and started his career in a multinational company. Later, he realized that the startup environment was his niche and founded his own in the smart-mobility sector first, before joining Joinrs. He describes himself as a huge tennis fanatic and a 'decent' player (we can agree on that).

😎 Let's talk about Maura Bonelli, Business Development Manager in Joinrs 😎 She has worked for more than 8 years in Italian and International startups and scaleups, all sharing the mission of bringing innovation to companies. Engineer by training and Sales by passion for almost 20 years, in her spare time she loves going to the theater, playing sports, reading novels and taking long walks at the seaside, where she lives with her husband and two children. She used to act in the theater with her theater company and write short stories, who knows, maybe one day she will resume doing so 😉

😎 Let's get back to our team, today it's all about Ilaria Scioni, our Community Manager 😎 She describes herself as a serial chatterbox passionate about stories: books, movies, TV series, advertisements. She loves kindness and believes in the power of words, and, because of this, she will always try to help you: by e-mail, in person or during her special one-to-one consultations.

🔥 Joinrs in Rome: HR friends, there are no taboos among us 🔥 We like to talk, to tell, to engage. And at the Fig Bar-just where 10 years ago the first dreams and mechanisms of our startup materialized-we met old and new HR connections. 🍝 Amatriciana is a must, and it's always great, but we needed ... unconventional, so the dinner turned into the smiles of those who had their portraits taken by Eli, a very good illustrator, into those who raised their glasses to toasts, into the widespread cheerfulness of a nice “Taboo” HR version, and into a new experience, both for them and for us. It was special: we write this from the train taking us back to Milan, knowing that when we want it again all we have to do is simply take the backward route.

💃 Joinrs' Talent Show: will we open it to the public from the next edition? 🕺 We cannot yet assure that, what is certain, however, is that the office lends itself to the most bizarre and entertaining shows. We were joined by just about everyone here in Milan, so we welcomed our colleagues from the rest of the world with an unpredictable show. Fifteen performances: from dancing to singing, via stand-up comedy, quizzes, imitations, drone and crochet demonstrations, and recipes in the kitchen. The jury gave its verdict: Joinrs won, us that met first and got to know each other better later. -- Martina Mattone closed and stole this talent with a T-Rex performance. But success is about creativity, about putting yourself out there, about talent... that knows no languages or, if it does, it surely knows at least one more than we do :)

🤔 What are the most effective strategies and practices to adopt when working in a multicultural context? 🤔 Answering this question is Pasqualina Aliperta, Talent Acquisition Partner Western Europe at Straumann Group, whom we had the pleasure to interview. In addition to telling us her experience in an international work setting she shared many other interesting insights about the HR world.
