Navigating a new VUCA reality
We live in unprecedented times, where traditional economic, social, cultural, technological, and health-related vectors are looming upon our traditional notions of space, time, work, and leisure. In this ever-changing reality, I help leaders become who they need to be, and I advise companies to switch beyond survival mode to build a better future.

the review
A Clutch analyst personally interviewed this client over the phone. Below is an edited transcript.
Introduce your business and what you do there.
I’m the co-founder of a company operating in the life-tech sector.
What challenge were you trying to address with Filiberto Amati?
Filiberto (Partner) helped and advised my company on two key areas. They worked on our buyer persona patterns and built up our ecosystem around key stakeholders and the value chain of potential customers. They also helped us understand the determinants of our SaaS model’s pricing strategy.
What was the scope of their involvement?
Filiberto helped me advance my own deliverables by advising on how to advance the structure of our work around those deliverables. To be clear, he didn’t own the deliverables; he was mainly providing advice.
The activities in which he was involved were mainly about marketing and pricing. He collaborated with us on the composition of our business model’s value chain; he also helped me understand our target buyer persona or those people who were going to buy our product.
What is the team composition?
I mainly work with Filiberto.

How did Filiberto Amati perform from a project management standpoint?

What challenge were you trying to address with Filiberto Amati?
We needed someone to help with our marketing strategy, branding, and price structure.

We worked with one person.

What is the status of this engagement?
We started working together in the summer of 2018, and the engagement wrapped in the middle of 2019.

Are there any areas they could improve?
Our main point of contact was straightforward and confident, but he could try to adapt his style to his working audience. Changing his approach to fit the client could be helpful.
Do you have any advice for potential customers?
I would advise them to present the full picture. Don’t focus only on the marketing part, but define exactly what you want them to do.
