Most definitely, Antonio is one of the most passionate, committed, and multi-dimensional leaders I have had the pleasure to know. His depth of technical knowledge combined with his energizing curiosity fuels innovative creativity and inspires ingenious thinking. His strength is not only in collaboratively mapping the path but also journeying alongside to execute the plan. During our time together at Philips and in the subsequent years since, I have appreciated Antonio’s insights and encouragement on both a professional and personal level. He listens to understand, speaks to guide and encourage. Antonio gives nothing short of 100%.
I have known Antonio since 2009, first professionally as my direct manager, when he was the EVP and Chief of Innovation, Marketing and Strategy for Philips and subsequently as advisor and mentor. Antonio has the capability of look into very complex paradigms and structure them in such a way that the path forward towards efficiency seems simple. When we talk about innovation, marketing or strategy there are always multiple layers and dimensions to consider before making a decision. Here is where an end-to-end approach will help you to be more thorough, and Antonio is a master of this. I have learned enormously from him in this area. More often than not I run into Biotech R&D scientists who are geniuses in their fields, yet chaotic in their approach; Antonio’s expertise in applying a structured approach to innovation with the end vision in mind is the perfect complement in those settings. Last, and probably the most important for me, is the soft skills and human side which has to be taken into consideration in every change management. Antonio instills a management with care, a servant leadership, which makes an organization galvanize around his direction, with all team members being ready to go the extra mile out of commitment to him.
Over the past two years, Antonio has supported me in two multi-month programs executed in both corporate and mid-sized growth business contexts. In both cases, the objective was to accelerate growth through transformational change by improving the full system spanning across all aspects of business execution including strategy, culture, people, product and processes. Antonio's mix of multi-decade executive leadership experience and highly business-centric coaching made him uniquely impactful in these settings. I would recommend Antonio to all C-Level executives seeking to accelerate their businesses in a non-incremental way.
I have worked with Antonio between 2018-2020, as a head of Amadeus Research and Innovation team when we asked Growthride to help us drive more impact. Today, I can say "mission accomplished": we have become a bigger, stronger, business-driven innovation team, incubating few, yet promising businesses recognized by Amadeus as its future relays of growth. Antonio's work has been absolutely instrumental to this success: he helped establish solid foundations, by driving the creation of a sound strategy, fully supporting the corporate strategy of Amadeus, while ensuring we would engage all business units and stakeholders along the way. Today, 3 years after, the strategy we defined together is still the north star of my organisation, it has helped us navigate and come out stronger from the severe crisis our company and industry had to face. Antonio has been a trusted advisor and personal coach to me as a leader the whole time, and we are still in touch. I recommend Antonio and Growthride wholeheartedly, to any company willing to bring their innovation capability to the next level.
