Article Improvements

Hello. As some of you may be aware, there are a small number of factual inaccuracies that should be reviewed and corrected in this article. In the interest of transparency I am declaring that I work for Alliance Boots. I hope to work with external editors to ensure that this Wikipedia article is accurate. Please contact me on my Talk Page if you have any questions. Many thanks.

Introductory Paragraph

Several details in the article introductory paragraph are incorrect. Here are the changes with relevant references for verification:

In the first sentence, please replace “Italian” with “Monegasque” (Ornella Barra’s nationality changed from Italian to Monegasque in 2012) (Reference: http://www.nicematin.com/monaco/quelle-place-pour-les-femmes-au-pouvoir-a-monaco.1648182.html)

In the sentence beginning “A board member….,” please replace “Chief Executive, Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division of Alliance Healthcare.” with “Chief Executive of Wholesale and Brands of Alliance Boots.” (Reference: http://www.fortunechina.com/career/c/2014-02/14/content_193558.htm)

In the final sentence, please replace “25 years” with “30 years.” (Reference: http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/business/business_interviews/article1164713.ece)

This section of the article would benefit from the inclusion of an additional important piece of information about Ornella’s role that is currently not mentioned. I've written content which I think could be included within the current introductory paragraph alongside relevant reference for verification. Could someone please review this point and let me know their feedback. Thank you.

After sentence that ends “...division’s key functions” please insert following sentence: “In addition to overseeing the Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division, Ornella is responsible for international retail (outside of UK and Republic of Ireland).” (Reference: http://www.ifpw.com/barra.htm)

Side Bar

Several details included in the article side bar are incorrect. Here are the changes with relevant references for verification:

Title: Please replace “Chief Executive, Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division” with “Chief Executive, Wholesale and Brands, Alliance Boots.” (Reference: http://www.fortunechina.com/career/c/2014-02/14/content_193558.htm)

Nationality: Please replace “Italian” with “Monegasque” (Ornella Barra’s nationality changed from Italian to Monegasque in 2012) (Reference: http://www.nicematin.com/monaco/quelle-place-pour-les-femmes-au-pouvoir-a-monaco.1648182.html)

Career

Several figures included in this section of the article need to be updated. Here are the changes with relevant references for verification:

First paragraph:

In first sentence please replace “Chief Executive of Alliance Healthcare, the Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division of Alliance Boots” with “Chief Executive of Wholesale and Brands of Alliance Boots.” (Reference: http://www.fortunechina.com/career/c/2014-02/14/content_193558.htm)

Replace second sentence beginning “Alliance Boots was a private company…” with “Alliance Boots is a private company – it was bought by AB Acquisitions Limited (Stefano Pessina and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts) in July 2007.”

In the sentence “Alliance Boots is present in more than 25 countries…have a pharmacy,” please change the following:

- Replace “with over 116,000* employees” with “with over 108,000* employees” (Reference: http://www.corporateregister.com/reviews/item/?n=155)

- Replace “more than 3,100* health and beauty retail outlets”with “more than 3,150* health and beauty retail outlets in nine countries of which just over 3,050* have a pharmacy” (Reference: http://www.corporateregister.com/reviews/item/?n=155)

- Replace “in 11 countries” with “in nine countries” (Reference: http://www.corporateregister.com/reviews/item/?n=155)

- Replace “just over 3,200* have a pharmacy” with “just over 3,000* have a pharmacy” (Reference: http://www.reuters.com/finance/stocks/companyProfile?symbol=WAG)

In the final sentence “Figures stated ... March 2013.” replace “March 2013.” with “31 March 2014.” (Reference: http://www.corporateregister.com/reviews/item/?n=155)

Second paragraph:

- In the final sentence “Figures stated ... March 2012.” replace “March 2012.” with “March 2013.”

This section of the article would also benefit from the inclusion of an additional important piece of information about Ornella’s career that is currently not mentioned. I've written content which I think could be included within the current ‘Career’ section alongside a relevant reference for verification. Could someone could please review this point and let me know their feedback. Thank you.

At the end of the ‘Career’ section, insert the following:

“In April 2013, Ornella Barra was appointed to the Board of Directors of Assicurazioni Generali, one of the most significant players in the global insurance and financial products market.” (Reference: http://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2013/04/29/ornella-barra-dallimpero-globale-di-alliance-boots.html)

Hi.

I'm employed by RLM Finsbury, a communications company. I'm using my Wikipedia account to contribute to the Wikipedia community.

I intend to suggest improvements to articles regarding my client, Alliance Boots. This will include noting any inaccurate information.

Please contact me on my Talk Page if you have any questions.

Thanks.

Career Please could you update the second paragraph of the Career section to:

WBA’s pharmaceutical wholesale and distribution network is present in more than 20 countries and supplies more than 230,000 pharmacies, doctors, health centres and hospitals from 390 distribution centres. Moreover, it supports a large network of independent pharmacies and operates a number of owned pharmacies. Barra also oversees International Retail, which includes main business units of Thailand, Norway, The Netherlands, Mexico and Chile, as well as the UK.[12]

Article improvements

Hello, In the interest of transparency I am declaring that I work for Walgreens Boots Alliance. I would like to share with external editors updated information about Ornella Barra, to ensure that this Wikipedia article is accurate.

Her current role within the Company includes responsibilities that are slightly different to the ones currently listed in the Introductory Paragraph. Also, the source currently referenced for this sentence is “missing or empty”; I am thus proposing an alternative external reference.

Please replace the following sentence: “Within Walgreens Boots Alliance, Barra oversees International Retail, which is part of the Retail Pharmacy International Division, as well as directing the Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division”.

With “Within Walgreens Boots Alliance, Barra oversees the Retail Pharmacy International Division businesses outside the UK and Republic Of Ireland and the Pharmaceutical Wholesale Division, as well as Global Human Resources, Global Communications, Global IT function, Global Brands, CSR for the group and other business services for the company.” ^[1], ^[2]

GretaBonsi (talk) 08:10, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I am proposing another modification to this page in order to reflect Ornella Barra's ranking in the most recent Fortune Most Powerful Women International. According to the 2017 edition, she is in 13th position.

I therefore suggest replacing the following sentence: "Ornella was ranked 10th in Fortune Magazine’s 2016 most powerful women in business for female executives based outside of the United States."

with: Ornella was ranked 13th in Fortune's 2017 most powerful women in business for female executives outside the United States.^[3] GretaBonsi (talk) 14:26, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

GretaBonsi, bearing in mind your stated conflict of interest, why did you edit the article directly, rather than waiting for someone to respond? Edwardx (talk) 20:38, 15 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, given all suggested changes are strictly factual I considered it appropriate to modify after sharing on this Talk page.

There would be another additional information to be included, I would suggest: Ornella Barra is also member of the board of AmerisourceBergen, here is a source:

https://www.talent4boards.com/amerisourcebergen-appoints-ornella-barra-board-directors/

Would it be possible to add this as well in the Industry-related activity section?

GretaBonsi (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 06:16, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Edwardx, did you have a chance to review my proposal to add that Ornella Barra is a member of AmerisourceBergen's board? In addition to the aforementioned source, here is the link to Amerisourcebergen's board of directors: http://investor.amerisourcebergen.com/corporate-governance/board-of-directors. Thank you for your attention. GretaBonsi (talk) 10:33, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Following up on my previous posts as I haven't received any feedback - I hope it will be acceptable for me to include the following sentence in the Industry-related activity:

AmerisourceBergen

Ornella Barra is a member of the Board of Directors of AmerisourceBergen, one of the largest global pharmaceutical sourcing and distribution services companies, since January 2015 ^[4], ^[5]

Hello, in the interest of transparency, I am declaring I work for Walgreens Boots Alliance. I would like to propose two edits, in the interest of accuracy:

1) Professional activities section - The following sentence "In April 2013, Barra was appointed to the board of directors of Assicurazioni Generali, Italy's largest insurance company. ” should be removed, as she is no longer a member of the board of directors of Generali Source: ^[1], ^[2]

2) Biography section - The following sentence "Having graduated as a pharmacist from the University of Genoa in 1979,[6] began her career as a manager of a pharmacy which she then acquired.[citation needed]" Should be edited as follows: "Having graduated as a pharmacist from the University of Genoa in 1979, she began her career as a manager of a pharmacy and eventually she set up her own" Source: ^[3]

Edit request declined

The sentence as it exists in the article does not state that the subject is currently on the board of directors, only that she was appointed in 2013.
The requested reference has not been formatted as Citation Style 1, which is the style currently used by the article. Please reformat the reference using that style and when this is completed kindly open a new edit request at your earliest convenience.

Hello,

having stated my conflict of interest, I am re-requesting the edit as @Spintendo: suggested, with reference now formatted according to the style used by the article:

Biography section - The following sentence "Having graduated as a pharmacist from the University of Genoa in 1979, began her career as a manager of a pharmacy which she then acquired.[citation needed]" Should be edited as follows: "Having graduated as a pharmacist from the University of Genoa in 1979, she began her career as a manager of a pharmacy and eventually she set up her own"^[1]

Regarding Generali, given Ornella Barra is no longer a member of the board, I think the sentence still requires updating - if not removed, it could be reviewed as follows: In April 2013, Barra was appointed to the board of directors of Assicurazioni Generali, Italy's largest insurance company. She is no longer a member since 8 May 2019. ^[2]

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

I am an employee at Walgreens Boots Alliance. I would like to point out that in the 2019 Fortune Most Powerful Women list Ornella Barra is in 26th position. I would therefore propose to update the relative sentence as follows:

Hi. Thanks for your reply. the cited source is no longer up to date and should be removed. The marriage between Ornella Barra and Stefano Pessina has not been publicly announced Sergio imbonati (talk) 15:38, 28 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

good morning. I didn't receive any other feedback on my proposed changes. Do I have to wait for confirmation before proceeding with text updates? Thanks a lot for assistance Sergio imbonati (talk) 07:20, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The short article in Fortune does not support much of what you are proposing. And I have just had to revert your uncited edit to Stefano Pessina. You need to make much more of an effort; it is not reasonable to expect unpaid volunteers to hand hold and do your work for you. Edwardx (talk) 11:19, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your reply. I'm pretty new to Wikipedia, so forgive if I do mistakes, but I'm trying to do my best to do the correct steps.

Having said that, I proposed few edits on Ornella Barra page.

1) Marital status. the current mention ("She has been the partner of the Italian billionaire Stefano Pessina for over 30 years") does not represent the reality anymore. Ornella Barra is now married with Stefano Pessina and I find logic (and appropriate) that her status is correctly reflected in her profile (as well in Stefano Pessina box, where defining Ornella Barra "partner" and not "spouse" is no more factual). Don't you agree? I propose, until the rest of my proposal is under discussion, to go ahead with this first correction.

2) Fortune ranking. Ornella Barra has been ranked many times. The mention in the first sentence is a bit old. what I proposed is to remove it from the initial resume, and include the most significant achievement in her career in that specific section. the Fortune article is the specific mention of the ranking in 2015. what would I need to add? any more precise input from your side would be helpful.

3) a sentence describing more accurately, the several evolution steps of the companies handled by Ornella Barra. Again: considering that the mentioned ones are facts, not comments, what could I provide as helpful support evidences? (the sentence I'd add is "Following the merger between Alliance UniChem and Boots plc and the creation of Alliance Boots, in 2012 she became the Company’s Chief Executive, Wholesale and Brands. Alliance Boots merged with Walgreens in 2014, to from Walgreens Boots Alliance, and integrated healthcare, pharmacy and retail leader based in Deerfield, Illinois. Barra is currently the Company’s chief operating officer, international").

Thank you once again for your help. Best Sergio imbonati (talk) 07:55, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Not done Changes to articles can only be made when sources the support that change. A source has not been provided that Barra is now married. For the Fortune Magazine ranking, the 6th place ranking is for Europe, Middle East and Africa, not "ouside the United States" so changing this information would be inaccurate. The other proposed changes and additions are not mentioned in the provided source. Z1720 (talk) 18:45, 11 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thanks for your reply.

Some comments on my side:

1) Marital status. Do you really ask for a marriage certificate to all the people whose marital status is included in their profile on Wikipedia?? As I said, the marriage has not been publicly announced, as it happens for many managers that have media visibility and want to keep personal life out of the spotlight. If you refuse to change Mrs. Barra status you're supporting a false information in your pages. I can ask her for a certificate, but I am surprised that for such a basic information you cannot keep a personal advisor of her (as I am) as source

2) the reason for writing "outside United States" is that these are the non- USA regions considered by Fortune. But we can also adopt the sentence "Ornella Barra was ranked 5th in the 2015 “Fortune Most Powerful Women” in business among female executives in Europe, Middle East and Africa". if this may work for you, can we adopt it?

3) we're collecting ad hoc sourcing to support this additional sentence.

once again, thanks for your cooperation Sergio imbonati (talk) 13:57, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I hope that points 2 and 3 above are enough clarified and supported now.

As related to point 1 (marital status), please let me know if I need to provide a certificate, considering that there are not other public sources mentioning the marriage.

Thanks a lot, once again.
