The incubator for
Self-leadership at work.
FINO exists because the way we work is burning people out - and we know it doesn’t have to be this way.
​
We help organizations make Self-leadership a lived reality: people who can stay clear, calm, and connected under pressure, and teams who can talk about what’s really happening, not just what’s on the slide.
Why Now
The workplace is at a breaking point.
Engagement is dropping. Managers are exhausted. People are struggling with conflict, loneliness, and constant change - even in organizations that “care about culture.”
​
Most solutions focus on skills and behaviors: communication workshops, frameworks, new tools. Useful, but they don’t touch what actually happens when pressure hits:
​
-
people shut down
-
get defensive
-
avoid hard conversations
-
go quiet when the stakes are high
​
FINO was born from a simple belief:
​
Real change at work starts inside people.
When we learn to lead ourselves, everything else becomes possible.
​
We created FINO as an incubator for Self-leadership - a place where inner work and organizational reality finally meet.
Our Story
From Survival at Work to Self-leadership
​
FINO is the result of many years of personal and professional experience.
​
Anna spent years inside startup and company environments - including toxic ones. She watched smart, caring people burn out, shut down, or leave. She also went through her own transformation, discovering Internal Family Systems (IFS) and deep coaching as a way to relate to her inner world instead of fighting it.
​
Dario spent over 20 years working with groups and communities as an organizational psychologist and facilitator of transformation. He saw again and again that when people have space to be real, name what’s happening inside, and feel supported, everything in the system can shift.
​
Together, we saw a gap:
​
Clinical practitioners understood deep inner work, but not organizational dynamics.
​
Organizational consultants understood systems and strategy, but not inner transformation.
​
Wellness programs treated symptoms, not root causes.
​
So we created FINO to be the bridge:
​
Between inner work and business outcomes.
Between Self-leadership and everyday work.
Between the future we imagine and the actions we take today.
​
“FINO” comes from “Il futuro è ora” - the future is now.
The inner work, the real connection, people who can stay grounded when it matters most - this isn’t “someday.” It’s what’s needed right now.
What we Believe
At FINO, we believe:
​
-
Real change at work starts inside people, not in another framework.
-
Work can be a place where we grow, not just produce.
-
Taking care of people is a business strategy, not a side project.
-
We do our best work when we’re connected to ourselves and to each other.
How We Work
We keep things simple and grounded:
​
-
From the inside out – we work with what’s happening internally when pressure hits, not just with behavior on the surface.
-
In real time – we use real situations (conflict, feedback, hard decisions), not hypotheticals.
-
In community – small groups, circles, and coaching spaces where people don’t have to pretend they’re fine.
Our Values
Our values shape how we work with every client and team.
-
Respect for all life – we see every person as a whole human, not a role.
-
Integrity – we say what we mean and don’t promise what we can’t support.
-
Trust – we create spaces where people feel safe enough to be honest.
-
Interconnectedness – we keep an eye on the whole system, not just one person.
-
Regenerative communication – we aim for conversations that are honest, kind, and nourishing, even when they’re hard.
Who We Work With
We work best with leaders and organizations who:
​
-
Know the old ways aren’t working
-
Care about both results and wellbeing
-
Are curious about inner work, even if they haven’t done much of it yet
-
Want change that feels real in day-to-day work, not just in a slide deck
