On July 10, 2014, at the Piero Pirelli Institute of Milan, Pasquale Gravina met with the managers of Pirelli during a program of work and edited by SDA Bocconi in collaboration with Pirelli School of Management. The topics covered were especially those that combine the great performers of the sport and the evidence found in the managerial world. The presence of highly qualified management Pirelli has also enabled an interesting comparison to the presentation on the characteristics of sports leadership, both in the role of player and in the coach. One of the most interesting questions concerned the role of emotion management in the decisive moments of a race, a topic central to the construction of any major achievement.
