The labour market is a field in permanent evolution, and this is also tangible in the realization of new professional roles or figures. This study focuses on the manager’s professional work. The goal is to detect a definition of the new professional figure of the ‘open manager’, based on some evidence derived from a survey conducted in 2020, by interviewing a set of managers of Italian companies using a structured questionnaire. The questionnaire applies thirty items to describe the managers’ business behaviors and attitudes, useful for defining the concept of ‘openness’ characterizing the figure of the open manager. Such items were formulated as a 4-point Likert scale. The open manager figure is not actually well defined, so it appears to be as a latent figure, for this reason through the data analysis following this survey it was possible to outline some emerging attitudes and behaviours.

Abstract

The labour market is a field in permanent evolution, and this is also tangible in the realization of new professional roles or figures. This study focuses on the manager’s professional work. The goal is to detect a definition of the new professional figure of the ‘open manager’, based on some evidence derived from a survey conducted in 2020, by interviewing a set of managers of Italian companies using a structured questionnaire. The questionnaire applies thirty items to describe the managers’ business behaviors and attitudes, useful for defining the concept of ‘openness’ characterizing the figure of the open manager. Such items were formulated as a 4-point Likert scale. The open manager figure is not actually well defined, so it appears to be as a latent figure, for this reason through the data analysis following this survey it was possible to outline some emerging attitudes and behaviours. Data was analyzed by Partial Credit Model and Differential Item Functioning.
