FAQ

• GENERAL 

Q. What services do you offer?

I provide three primary services to support leaders and teams through change:

• Change Management Consulting: Strategic guidance for planning, implementing, and sustaining organisational change.
• Executive Coaching: Personalised coaching for individuals and teams to develop resilience, leadership capacity, and adaptability.
• Training & Facilitation: Interactive workshops and training programs to build internal capabilities and foster a change-ready culture.

Q. Who can benefit from your services?

My services are ideal for executives, middle managers, transformation teams, and organisations undergoing digital transformations, culture change, M&A, or ERP implementation. Whether you need strategic guidance, leadership development, or skills training, I tailor my approach to your unique organisational needs. Typically, my clients are CXOs (CIO/CTO, CHRO), Head of PMO, and Head of Digital Transformation.

Q: What is your approach to managing large-scale business transformations?

My approach is collaborative, as I co-create the transformation plan with my clients to ensure it aligns with their unique context and culture. I empower internal leaders to take the lead, with my support scaling based on their needs and preferences. This approach instils a sense of confidence and control in my clients. Clients who see value in deeper involvement can engage me more extensively. The complexity of the transformation shapes key decisions, such as the size and structure of the change team, the roles of process owners and subject matter experts, and the adoption metrics we use to track progress and impact.

Q. How do your consulting, coaching and training services work together?

Consulting provides the strategic roadmap; coaching develops leaders’ and teams’ adaptive skills; training embeds practical capabilities. Together, these services create a holistic approach to managing change successfully, making you feel equipped and prepared for the challenges ahead.

Q. How is the free discovery session structured, and what should I expect from it?

The free discovery session is a 20-minute conversation designed to help us get to know each other. During this meeting, you’ll be able to share your business goals or challenges, ask questions about my approach, and explore whether there’s a good fit for a consulting or coaching engagement. It’s a no-pressure way to assess alignment before committing to the next steps. You can book it via this link

• CONSULTING 

Q. How does your consulting work support organisational change?

I diagnose readiness, identify resistance points, and design a strategic change management strategy grounded in frameworks such as Prosci’s ADKAR, Kotter’s, and other change management methodologies. I support leaders and teams through every phase of the change cycle to ensure successful adoption and sustainability.

Q. What value can business consulting bring to my company? 

Working with a consultant can help minimise disruption during change, boost overall business performance, drive the adoption of new behaviours, and foster a more productive and positive work environment.

Q. Which business problems do you typically help clients solve?

I focus on the people side of business transformation, meaning accelerating the pace of change by minimising resistance and increasing adoption. This includes leading change initiatives, developing workforce capabilities, reducing resistance and disruption, and managing associated risks. My work helps clients align their people strategies with business goals to ensure lasting impact.

Q. How long is your consulting assignment for?

It depends on the client’s requirements. It can be a short-term project lasting a few months,  or when the change initiative is more complex, and the client requires more support, it can be a longer-term engagement that may last a year or more.

Q. Do you work only in Italy and Europe, or also worldwide?

Although I’m based in Milan (Italy),  I work with clients globally. In Italy and throughout Europe, I offer both in-person and virtual consulting, coaching, and training services. For clients outside Europe, I primarily work remotely; however, in-person engagements can be arranged when necessary.

Q. What types of training do you provide?

I deliver engaging workshops—either onsite or virtual—on topics such as leading change, communicating effectively during transformation, coaching for leaders, managing resistance, and emotional intelligence, all tailored to your organisational context.

Q. What does a fractional consulting engagement typically involve?

Fractional consulting offers senior-level expertise tailored to the client’s needs without requiring a full-time commitment.Clients typically engage me for 1 to 4 days per week, depending on the complexity of their initiative. My involvement may include providing weekly status updates to the project sponsor, leading or supporting team meetings, and collaborating with subject matter experts or process owners to ensure human capital initiatives remain on track. Through an initial discussion, I help clients determine the right level of support. In some cases, I deliver tangible outputs; in others, I serve in an advisory role, offering strategic guidance as needed.

Q. What experience and qualifications do you have when it comes to change management?

Throughout my over 20-year international career, I have worked with leaders from FTSE 100 companies, primarily in the Financial Services, Professional Services, FMCG, Pharma and Manufacturing sectors. I support executives in developing a change-ready organisation.  I worked as an in-house change management leader and as an external consultant. Clients include Royal Bank of Scotland, Royal Bank of Canada, Lloyds Banking Group, and Bank of America Merryl Lynch. I am Prosci certified, and I worked as a Prosci Certified Advanced Instructor for Prosci Europe.  I invest in ongoing professional development with leading institutions such as the University of Cambridge and IMD.
