We help executives see what they're missing.

Design leadership, when you need it. Without the full-time hire.

Most companies have a design problem. They do not realise it yet.

When design is missing from the decisions that matter, priorities drift. Teams pull in different directions. Products ship that nobody wanted. It is not a design failure. It is a leadership gap.

Your design problem is actually a people problem.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Maria has a unique perspective of the concept of innovation and its meaning in terms of creating value. Her contributions are a perfect mix between the relevant information and the analysis. She always has new ideas but at the same time she is very focused when is time to deliver a project.

Luca Emil A.
Founder StartupBusiness, Co-Founder DesignTech

Thank you for your support, Maria. I consider it to be of great value, and everyone else felt the same way. The very next day, the initial feedback was extremely positive, and our main goal of stimulating interest in Changing Mindset and starting to think about how we could use innovation and new technologies it was completely achieved. Your work was fundamental in introducing the use of Process Design Thinking into our daily work and helping us start to think differently. The process is still evolving. Hope to work together again in the future.

Massimo G.
MTM Consulting

Maria was truly clear and inspiring. She changed my mindset regarding AI in a dialogue context where I did not feel inferior to the technology as I do as a woman. I asked questions that I would not have asked in other contexts.

Delia D.
Humanitas University

Maria is a competent and empathetic person. The course introduced me completely to the world of generative AI and this allowed me to solve quickly and effectively the preparation of a speech for a conference I was called to participate in. I prepared a complete speech with graphs and presentation and was able to do it in half the time I would have spent without AI, but above all I entered a new and unknown world that is very useful and fascinating.

Simona B.
