On 20 July 2021 at 13:15 the Markets, Culture and Ethics (MCE) Research Centre hosted the webinar Auctoritas & Empowerment.
It was the last appointment of the Webinar Series Humanistic Management: In the Market, which Culture to act according to Ethics?.
What do the Latin concepts of Auctoritas and Empowerment have to share? Is it possible to compare their meanings and find points of convergence between the classical and the modern world?
If the auctoritas was able to grow those who were under the guardianship of the auctor, then it is necessary to ask today what is the role of the manager and the entrepreneur: unlock the potential value of the person, including those living in extreme cases of social exclusion. This is auctoritas, this is empowerment.
In addition to Luca Mongelli and Simone Budini, guest of the Meeting was Antonino Vaccaro, Professor at Business Ethics e di Negotiation Unit Department of IESE Business School, as well as Academic Director of the Center for Business in Society of IESE Business School.
