I look forward to working in this new department with new colleagues to understand how sustainability issues can play a role for different organizations and places into their development over time and space."

Simona Leonelli RTDa P/10

Simona works on Entrepreneurship, Personality traits and Resilience. 

"I have already worked in the Department in the last three years as a research fellow and adjunct professor, and I am honored to continue my journey covering this new position. My research interests belong to the Department's organizational and human resource management group focusing mainly on resilience at the individual and organizational levels.

Giovanni Pellegrino RTDb P/01

Giovanni works on Applied Macroeconomics, Monetary Economics, Macroeconomic Uncertainty and Nonlinear methods. 

"I will soon be joining the excellent research group in Macroeconomics and Macroeconometrics of the dSEA. I conduct research in the area of applied macroeconomics and have worked on topics such as the effectiveness of monetary policy stimuli and the effects of uncertainty shocks in different economic environments. I am interested in the use of structural models similar to those in use in major central banks to study the effects of shocks as estimated by frontier macroeconometric methods. I will soon start working on the effects and transmission channels of uncertainty related to the level of future inflation. I am very confident that there will be many productive collaborations with members of the department!".

Bruno Buchetti P/07

Bruno works on Financial Accounting, Corporate Governance and Banking.

"I had the pleasure to work for our department during the last two years and I am really happy to start this new journey here. In my research, I investigate how changes to accounting rules affect the quality, informativeness and transparency of financial statements influencing in this way the real economy (e.g., in terms of access to public funds, credit allocation and corporate survival). I also study how good corporate governance practices can become a tool for better protecting shareholders and the other relevant stakeholders."

The analysis, based on empirical methods, is carried out in collaboration with other professors of the Department, including Professors Giulio Cainelli and Eleonora Di Maria and their respective research groups. In addition, part of the research will be carried out at Prometeia, a private company specialised in consulting and software development, based in Bologna, and at the London School of Economics (LSE) in London in collaboration with Professor Andres Rodriguez-Pose."
