conduction

Usage Note

Conduzione has two main uses: the management or running of a business or farm (la conduzione dell'azienda = the management of the company), and in physics/engineering, thermal or electrical conduction (conduzione del calore = heat conduction). The context disambiguates. It is a formal register word; in everyday speech gestione is more common for management.
