Bus/Financial - Human Resources
Italian term or phrase: La attrice
This comes from a "Valutazione del Potenziale" that was conducted for a business on three employees.

Actress doesn't make sense to me in this context.
Would it be the person evaluating him instead?
I know they were doing different exercises like role play exercises and things, but it seems strange that they would use "actress"...

Context:

Leading People

Si definisce come un leader naturale, creativo, che “teaches by example” e ritiene opportuno conoscere a fondo come stanno lavorando gli altri collaboratori. Riconosce che è difficile motivare nuovi collaboratori e stranamente anche fra i giovani. Nel Role-Play si riafferma come un leader nato. Riesce a creare un buon clima fin dall´inizio. Fa delle domande durante tutto il colloquio, cercando di coinvolgere il collaboratore e ci riesce.

Con la presenza, nel suo discorso, di elementi posistivi riesce, inoltre, a motivare. Fa riflettere il collaboratore sulle aree di miglioramento considerando utile la sua opinione. Sucesivamente Alessandro mette in gioco ancora la sua opinione e riesce a condurre il piano di azione, evitando alcune delle obiezioni presentate dal collaboratore. Suggerisce buone proposte per lo sviluppo.

Gestiona il tempo a disposizione adeguatamente e propone due delle tre azioni per il piano da portare avanti. La attrice lo valora molto positivamente, riconoscendo la sua maturitá nella forma en el tratto personale.

actress


Explanation:
IIRC there may be, in fact, one or more professional actor or actress involved in role-playing session for business, often conducting them - a significant number of actors seem to have re-oriented their dramatic skills to offer various kind of services in the area of human resources to business concerns.

see for instance:
