Bio
After 15 years in companies like Microsoft (Italy) and Nokia (Finland), I became an enterpreneur and launched MAAM - maternity as a master’s: the only training method in the world (as far as I know) that transforms parenting skills in soft skills for work. 40 companies, 4.000 mothers and fathers are already on MAAM digital platform. I am a single (separated) mother of 2 amazing kids: Marta and Luca.
I am proud to be an Ashoka Fellow and this is my TEDx about WOMEN and POWER https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4N9-B2xmG5M

The TED story
Solving the waste of human resources we create by considering work and life as conflicting entities.
