The Project<\/p>\n
The value of our Business School lies in the depth and analysis of its content, with a focus on growth and development. That is exactly what TeMa is: sharing value on topics of interest and importance to companies. A magazine created and designed to be a tool for in-depth analysis, staying current, and offering significant practical value.
\nTemi di Management is a repository of know-how: a tool for in-depth analysis, staying current, and offering significant practical value. The various special issues will offer food for thought, perspectives, and insights into modern business management, but they will also serve as a rich source of practical ideas, suggestions, and examples that can be applied in any organizational context.
\n\u201cIt is important to promote best management practices to create a culture that is actionable\u2014that is, one that can be directly applied and put into practice by companies in our industrial sector. TEMA was founded precisely with this goal in mind: each issue addresses a specific management topic through articles, interviews, and easy-to-read case studies, offering management lessons that entrepreneurs and managers can immediately apply in the field.\u201d

No. 4\/2025 – The Modern Family Business: Competitive and Sustainable<\/p>\n
The fourth issue of Te.Ma is dedicated to the modern family business. We discuss how family businesses are evolving to tackle the complexity of global markets, integrating tradition and innovation, identity and openness, responsibility and competitiveness. It is not a matter of imitating external models, but of building a dynamic balance that honors history and founding values, transforming them into drivers of sustainable growth.
\nGovernance, professional management, talent acquisition, sustainability, and legacy are the pillars of this transformation. The contemporary family business is no longer insular and paternalistic: it is a learning organization that engages with the outside world and measures its impact not only in economic terms, but also in cultural and social terms. The challenge is to balance continuity and change, creating value for multiple generations.
\nScientific Director: Andrea Furlan.
\nIssue Editor: Paolo Gubitta.<\/p>\n
No. 3\/2025 – From Product to Service: Businesses and the Challenge of Servitization<\/p>\n
The third issue of TeMa is dedicated to servitization. We discuss digital technologies and artificial intelligence for creating new service offerings and how to develop business models centered on customer service.
\nTo implement these transformations, a cultural shift and a willingness to change are essential: we need to prioritize people\u2014the true driving force behind businesses\u2014and maintain a strong focus on customer needs. A good product is no longer enough; today, we are called upon to build new business models in which the service component is highly developed and closely linked to the product itself, as an integral part that generates much higher perceived value.
\nScientific Editors: Andrea Furlan and Roberto Grandinetti.
\nIssue Editor: Marco Paiola.<\/p>\n
No. 2\/2024 – Business Growth and M&A Processes<\/p>\n
The second issue of TeMa is dedicated to acquisitions and mergers\u2014that is, corporate growth strategies achieved through external expansion.
\nThis thematic focus\u2014in keeping with the mission of the CUOA journal\u2014addresses a phenomenon that is very much present in the discussions taking place today within Italian companies and in the decisions made by their entrepreneurs and top managers, regardless of the company\u2019s position in a given M&A transaction.
\nGrowth is increasingly a cornerstone of business strategy and represents a primary objective in strategic plans, regardless of the company\u2019s size (small, medium, or large) or the type of business.
\nEditor-in-Chief: Roberto Grandinetti

\nIssue Editor: Francesco Gatto<\/p>\n
No. 1\/2024 – Lean and Agile<\/p>\n
The first issue of TeMa is dedicated to Lean and Agile for sustainable business.
\nWe discuss how to navigate the paradox between improving what already exists and exploring the new, and how lean thinking supports environmental and social sustainability.
\nScientific Editors: Andrea Furlan and Roberto Grandinetti.
