Caporarello Confirmed Among the Top 100 Leaders in Education

Leonardo Caporarello, Rector's Delegate for e-learning and director of BUILT, the laboratory for teaching innovation at Bocconi University, was named as one of the Top 100 Leaders in Education during the Global Forum for Education and Learning, held this year (virtually) in Las Vegas. The award refers to the year 2020 and for Caporarello it is a confirmation, having already won it in 2019. With this acknowledgement, the Forum aims to recognize people with the ability to be agents of change in the sector, through scientific publications, the creation of innovative training products, the construction of a network, and dissemination within their organizations of reference.

Caporarello, Professor of Practice  in Negotiation at SDA Bocconi and lecturer in the  Universtity's Department of Management and Technology, has led the SDA Bocconi Learning Lab since 2009 and has headed BUILT since 2016.

“One of the main reasons for this recognition,” says Caporarello, “was our ability to react to what happened as a true anti-fragility team. Having a solid foundation allowed us not only to resist but also to quickly reconfigure ourselves based on the changes we were experiencing. To do this, you need to possess certain characteristics like, for example, knowing how to manage emergencies without panicking. The award, however,” he continues, “also and above all goes to the team as a whole, to its strong cohesion and expertise.”
