The course is divided into the acquisition of notions and realistic exercises of three distinct disciplines; Emotional Intelligence, Collective Intelligence and Managing Caoching.
In a continuous technological evolution that is transforming communication and working methods inside and outside the company (technological intelligence) it is necessary to develop what still remains a prerogative of people, the use of emotions (Emotional Intelligence).
More than 50% of individual and corporate performance is explained by Emotional Intelligence. The development of Emotional Intelligence within an organization in the relationship between boss and collaborator and towards customers allows to:
Collective Intelligence is based on the concept that “the whole is more than the sum of its parts” and is little known and exploited in the business world:
Managing Coaching is the leadership and management style recognized as being among the most effective, it is based on communication skills, on the use of emotions and on the knowledge of some skills of the coach who is very skilled in listening and being able to ask open, powerful and insinuating questions, leading the employee to work on the objectives with motivation and energy.

In particular:
Luigi Mazzola today is an emotional speaker, executive coach and corporate trainer. To get here and speak at events, meetings and seminars, the journey was long and the opportunities to learn and grow countless.
HE was born in Ferrara (Italy) and I graduated in Mechanical Engineering, automotive specialization, at the Polytechnic of Turin.
He joined Formula 1 and Ferrari in 1988, with the role of Race Engineer. His journey through the ranks of the prancing horse ended in 2009 as executive coordinator of performance development. Together with the Maranello team, He won 8 Formula 1 World Constructors Championships and 6 Formula 1 World Drivers Championships as Technical Manager of Test Activities.
The contact with prestigious drivers like A.Prost to M. Schumacher, N. Mansell, G. Berger, R. Barrichello, E. Irvine, K. Raikkonen, F. Massa and J. Alesi made his sporting experience unique under the technical and human point of view.
Very early in his career the need for change grew in him and so from the role of engineer he passed to that of manager and leader. Specialization courses in resource management areas like Master in NLP, Master in Executive Coaching. Today is an Executive Coach Accredited with PCC at the ICF (International Coaching Federation) and accredited with Sei Development and Vital Sign with SixSeconds, a leading Emotional Intelligence training company, of which he is also a partner.
Attracted by the mind and its facets, he focused his journey on the knowledge of the human mind, the unconscious and spirituality. Coaching has favored the development of alternative mental training models focused on excellence in performance and change.
In his vision as an emotional speaker and performance coach, he choose the combination of technical-business skills and soft skills, the ideal strategy for performance development and personal growth.
Recently he was technical director of Venturi Automobiles Formula E Team, which participates in the FIA Formula E World Championship, lecturer at ALTEMS – Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Rome for the Master s Leadership in Medicine, collaborator of BBS – Bologna Business School.
Race Anatomy Formula , broadcast on Sky , is the sports lounge where he is a regular guest commenting on the sporting events of the Grand Prix.
His approach, his point of view, his beginning
Passion, energy, emotions, obsessive search for performance, commitment and a clear vision of its values. This guides his activity as a testimonial, executive coach and trainer.
To make my motivation grow even more is the pleasure of communicating and interacting with people, it is for them that he does his best. For this reason, after twenty years of experience in the sports field, today he teaches managing coaching.
The contribution of sport in my experience as a motivational speaker
Being a leader for many years in a company like Ferrari has encouraged him to to continuous improvement. An over twenty-year sporting path made up of many successes, moments of strong change, stress, commitment, the search for maximum performance and the achievement of challenging goals. The sports field was a wonderful training for him, made up of constant teamwork.
Creativity, responsibility, motivation, leadership, excellence, involvement, emotions, working in a multidisciplinary environment: this is what Formula has given him. Working side by side with athletes, the competition between winning and motivated competitors. This allowed him to experience many emotions and to understand how much being an authoritative figure makes a difference. Here I met leadership for the first time.
Emotions in today’s world
This is the result of the synergy between competence and intuition and occurs through the dynamic cooperation of the group. Being competent in managing coaching and therefore knowing the skills of the coach allows the leap in quality in the workplace and managerial as well as in the personal sphere.
We live in a period where Industry 4.0 is experiencing enormous developments. The world of Formula 1 has already been considered a cutting-edge, developed and modern sector since many years ago. Motorsport has always been a step forward for another reason as well, because the people who work in this sector are INFINITE.0.
People who are clear about their projects, are aware users of emotions and spirituality. Here is the difference between people and computers. Companies, schools and universities must be aware that in order to grow and progress, the person must be placed at the center and must be enabled to develop specific skills.
The assists of the great champions and the Emotional Intelligence
Formula1 drivers like Michael Schumacher or Alain Prost and tennis players of the caliber of Novak Đjoković perform incredible performances, giving each of us ideas for their individual growth. Their ability to use emotions led him to study Emotional Intelligence, to be a practitioner of it and, thanks to training and study, to be able to teach it to others.
The attitude of athletes, their ability to live in the present, the strength to respond to change, are teachings that each of us can learn and use in daily life. Concepts such as fear, judgment and guilt arise from the passive side of thinking and fail when athletes focus on their performance.
In their activity, during the race there is courage, determination, the desire to give the maximum.
