Appreciation for the Naked Pitcher

“The Naked Pitcher is a practical blog that is surely to entertain, educate, and challenge our common understanding of what it takes to be an entrepreneur.”
Abdelhamid El-Zoheiry -President of the Euro-Mediterranean University

“Initiatives such as the Naked Pitcher are of great importance, allowing to create a
cradle and an environment where those entrepreneurial gems can grow and prosper locally, without dispersion towards the dominant nations, increasing the intellectual potential of our peoples.”
Willy Burkhardt–founder and CEO of Arcares SPA, the IT leading company for Factoring and SCF Management Systems in Italy

“We have worked together since 2014 for P&G award and CEO Challenge within your course of Strategic Management and in the Siena University Alumni mentoring program.
Many ideas and contents of the Naked Pitcher book are certainly coming directly from the questions and the specific interests of the students and startuppers who took part to the program in approaching strategy in a innovative and effective way, adapted to their needs. Good luck and well done!!!“Cinzia Angeli, Customer Business Development Manager P&G/ President USiena Alumni

EMUNI University and the Naked Pitcher: supporting entrepreneurship

The primary mission of EMUNI University is “to contribute through its activities in the area of higher education  and  research  to Fostering intercultural  dialogue  and  science  diplomacy in  the  Euro Mediterranean  and  Middle  East  and consequently to  the realisation of  the Union  for  the  Mediterranean’s purpose and objectives, and in particular  advancing cultural understanding, peace  and prosperity in the Mediterranean region”

“With a view to achieving the aforementioned mission, the Euro Mediterranean University, through contributing  to  joint  academic  programmes, educational and  research  activities and  staff  and  students   exchange   across   the   Mediterranean,  endeavours  to   achieve   a   common   Euro Mediterranean Higher Education and Research Area” (cfr EMUNI Statute)

EMUNI was inaugurated in June 2008, in a prominent celebration attended by the President of the European Commission and numerous Ministers and dignitaries from Slovenia and around the world. Shortly thereafter, EMUNI was endorsed by the Heads of States at the Paris Summit for the Mediterranean, identifying EMUNI in their declaration as one of the priority areas of the Union for the Mediterranean (UfM). EMUNI was entrusted with the mission of contributing to the understanding among people in the region by establishing and fostering a Euro-Mediterranean higher education and research area.

“As it celebrates its first decade of existence, its mission remains all the more relevant today. The inclusive growth and development is increasingly contingent upon advancement of knowledge and innovation. Peace, security and prosperity in the Euro-Mediterranean region continue to be at the highest priority for the participating states.”

I’d like to thank EMUNI’s management to support the Naked Pitcher initiative.

Personally, I think that the  Euro-Mediterranean Entrepreneurship Diploma is defininitely a great and innovative idea and a huge help for students and young entrepreneurs.

In this Program  “Innovation and entrepreneurship are considered as a fruitful pursuit for creative and productive individuals” It aims  to enhance entrepreneurial thinking and implement entrepreneurial ambition in the context of the Euro-Mediterranean region.

I’ve had the privilege to teach in the “Entrepreneurial Business and Governance Models” and “Business Plan” Module and many ideas about the Naked Pitcher are coming directly from the requests and the interests of the students and startuppers I met.

The naked pitcher, strategy unveiled. The book.

The Naked Pitcher will be soon available as a Manual, with a totally new,  easy and ready-to -use approach!!!!

Are you a circular or straight start up?  And your entrepreneurial style is Kipling or a Parsifal- like? Following the experience of many years of consulting and teaching Prof. Massimiliano Bellavista proves an enjoyable and back –to-basic approach to strategy.  The naked pitcher is a “low cost”, simple and fast approach to strategy that proved to be successful with many different startups in the Euro-Mediterranean region: it is not a manual neither a book about strategy but a ready -to -employ vademecum for your entrepreneurial journey.

• If you are somebody interested in understanding how strategy can be effectively applied to start up management, this is probably your book.
• If you are an entrepreneur, and you want to get the basic concepts necessary to have a successful one avoiding the usual pitfalls, this is your book.
• If you are in a multi-ethnic or in a multicultural team and you want to transform it into a successful firm, this is definitely your book!!!
