Executive coaching for tech & IT leaders Amsterdam & online  ·  English · Italiano

You built the career.
Now build one you can sustain.

I coach senior leaders in technology and IT who deliver at a high level, and are paying for it with their energy, their sleep, or their life outside work. Together we redesign how you lead and how you work, so your performance holds up for years, not quarters.

Why I do this work
Federica Felli, founder of CrescitaStudio Portrait · Federica Felli
"The work behind the work: what I wish someone had told me thirty years ago."

I have sat
in your chair.

For more than thirty years I worked in demanding corporate IT roles, where success meant delivering results under constant pressure.

From the outside, it all looked successful. Behind it were stress, perfectionism, and the constant effort of keeping up. The career looked right on paper. The life behind it did not.

Then burnout stopped me. It forced me to pause and rethink what success actually means, both professionally and personally. That experience shapes everything I do now.

Today I help leaders in tech and IT find a way to succeed that does not cost them their well-being, ideally before the system makes that decision for them.

Success is not a burden to be carried. It is a structure to be designed around who you are, not who you were told to be. Federica Felli, Founder
§ 02  ·  Philosophy
What I believe

Four convictions
that shape every engagement.

01 / Foundation

Reconnecting with values

I help you reconnect with your core values, ensuring every decision is deeply aligned with what truly matters. This foundation brings profound clarity to your professional and personal life.

02 / Decision

Making clearer choices

You develop the tools to make more decisive and confident choices, leading to more effective outcomes and reduced stress. Mental energy frees up. Resilience builds.

03 / Authority

Leading with alignment

As a certified executive leadership coach, I support ambitious professionals in leading in a way that feels authentic and in control: a style that is sustainable, impactful, and truly yours.

04 / Outcome

Sustainable success

Together, we create more clarity, more energy, and a way of working that feels both effective and sustainable. Success should support your life, not come at the expense of your well-being.

§ 03  ·  Practice
How I can help

Six practices,
one integrated engagement.

Every journey is personalised. These are the areas I most often work on with clients, individually or in combination, depending on the season of the work and the season of the life.

§ 04  ·  Approach
A personalised methodology

Three commitments
that shape the work.

Commitment 01

Personalised coaching

Each coaching journey is tailored to your unique context and goals. I partner with you to identify challenges, unlock potential, and create actionable strategies for lasting change.

Commitment 02

Empowering high performers

Designed for senior leaders in technology and IT, the approach helps you navigate demanding environments with composure, maintaining peak performance without sacrificing personal peace.

Commitment 03

Achieve more, stress less

Concrete goals at the start, honest review along the way, and changes you can keep, on terms that hold up when the quarter ends and life continues.

§ 05  ·  Framework
Professional standards

Grounded in the ICF
global coaching framework.

My practice is anchored in the International Coaching Federation's Core Competencies and Code of Ethics: confidentiality, clear agreements, and a coaching relationship in which you set the agenda. Within that frame, the work usually falls into four kinds of conversation.

Pressure

When something is not working

A role that has become unsustainable, a conflict that is eroding trust, or a pattern you keep repeating. We name it, understand it, and change it.

Developmental

Growing into a bigger role

Stepping up after a promotion, building a self-driven team, and developing the scope and presence the next level asks of you.

Self-growth

Designing your next chapter

Goal setting, career choices, and the reflective work of designing a next chapter that fits, rather than drifting into one that does not.

Leadership

Leading through change

Collaboration, stakeholder influence, and leading through change and uncertainty with composure and clarity.

Ready for your reset?

A quiet conversation
can change the trajectory.

Most engagements begin with a 30-minute discovery call. No slides, no sales, just a candid read on whether the work is right for the moment you are in.
