CONNECTING-MANAGERS®
Relational network
CONNECTING-MANAGERS® is a Relational Network which comes from an idea by its Chairman Luigi Fusco and by some managers and professionals in the marketing and communications fields, as free access for professional workers to the world of corporate marketing and consultancy in global and integrated communication.
The members include marketing, commercial and sales managers of Italian and International companies in the consumer and industrial goods sectors, as well as owners and managers of advertising companies, promotion agencies, incentive companies, conference organisers, public relations companies, advertising concessionaries and services structures regarding the complex world of Marketing as well as information professionals (press, tv, radio and web).
Its mission is in its name: “Connecting-Managers®” in other words developing interpersonal relations amongst the members in order to create profitable, useful, proactive collaborations based firstly on human trust and then on professional trust.
The inspiring principal which has become a slogan is: “Acting is good, interacting is even better!”
