Leadership Transformation
My mission as an executive coach and leadership facilitator is to inspire and cultivate deeper consciousness in individuals and organizations. I am driven by the opportunity to awaken new levels of self-awareness and purpose, empowering people to thrive both personally and professionally. Through thoughtful introspection and meaningful interactions, I guide others to uncover profound insights that transform their perspectives and actions.
By fostering awareness of personal conditioning and cultivating compassion for oneself and others, I help create an environment where deliberate, thoughtful action replaces reactive behaviors. This process of deep understanding lays the foundation for sustainable personal and organizational growth, enabling lasting change and impactful leadership. My ultimate goal is to spark a ripple effect of awareness and transformation, helping people lead with authenticity, empathy, and clarity.

What my customers say about Digital Transformation:
I had the pleasure of working with Antimo for two months on a project focused on shaping the Data and Analytics strategy for our company, specifically in defining the governance model. From the very beginning, Antimo impressed me with his methodical and thoughtful approach to research.
He exhibited a remarkable ability to listen carefully to the many perspectives involved in the project. His diligence in seeking to understand the core of every argument and his careful consideration of all viewpoints ensured that no detail was overlooked.
One of Antimo’s standout qualities was his talent for translating complex insights into clear and effective communication materials. His presentations were not only informative but also resonated well with a diverse audience, making it easier for stakeholders to align on key decisions.
Even when faced with pushback, Antimo maintained a constructive and solution-oriented attitude. His professionalism and resilience contributed greatly to the project's success and fostered a collaborative and positive working environment.
Antimo’s contributions were instrumental in ensuring the success of our initiative, and I am confident he will bring the same level of excellence to any endeavor he undertakes.

Antimo and I worked closely together to launch a 0 -> 1 product while at Google.

Antimo was highly skilled in setting proper prioritization and documentation across multiple cross-functional teams. What I always admired about Antimo was his ability to execute on the above with empathy and leadership, even when tough decisions had to be made. His strong interpersonal skills married with his analytical mindset quickly led to him becoming an integral part of the team. Any team he works on in the future will, without a doubt, have the opportunity to build great products.
