Work on Your Acceptance

Siamo was founded in the traditional way - two people meeting at happy hour to scribble workplace improvement ideas on a napkin. Founders Cristina Amigoni and Alex Cullimore connected over a mutual desire to make work more human and treat humans like humans.

Both from a traditional consulting background, Cristina and Alex discovered a passion for coaching through professional coach training and realized the potential of blending coaching and consulting approaches. Combining the improvement mindset of consulting with a love for uncovering the authentic potential of people and organizations, Siamo emerged to guide leaders to uplift their organizational cultures and infuse human-centric practices into the workplace.
