Make your organization more attractive, engaging, and collaborative through design.

Curiosity, empathy and sensemaking are the words that come to mind when I reflect on my first meeting with Amploom. From that moment on, it has been a succession of experiences characterized by innovation and mutual cross-pollination. At Amploom, nothing happens by chance; the project pathways proposed are always well structured and designed to achieve a concrete and measurable result. The opportunity to receive Amploom’s valuable consultation on various projects has allowed us to sharpen our objectives and learn new methodologies capable of stimulating the untapped potential of the involved team.

This listening session was very important for validating the ideas of the working group regarding what the most attractive aspects and most motivating for the people who are the “recipients” of the initiative.
During the workshop, they frankly shared the strengths and weaknesses of their subjective EnerSys experience, also from the perspective of those working in a “full remote” setup. They conveyed the idea that inclusion in this structured listening moment was a retention element in itself.

For many months, Amploom has been an irreplaceable point of reference in the growth path of our Advisory department. Thanks to the in-depth study of Design Thinking and the mindset we have acquired, concepts we previously overlooked such as co-design, the study of Personas, Service Design, and Storytelling have now become central elements of our client offering.

Celebrating the 50th anniversary of our cooperative was, for me as the director, an act of vision: not looking back, but choosing the future. With Amploom, we built a path capable of giving a voice to those who support our organization every day: the people, or rather, above all, the working members.

The experiential activities identified, the attention to detail, the choice of content, and the ability to make us think and smile together generated a level of engagement that I had not anticipated. I saw emotion, authentic participation, and pride. Furthermore, the puzzle-themed gala dinner transformed the memory of some into the shared history of everyone.

Thanks to this project, the cooperative rediscovered a sense of belonging, vision, and new energy. Amploom helped us become visible to ourselves: it was a precious gift.

Meeting Amploom, and specifically its ‘Amploomers,’ was an important opportunity for growth on both a personal and corporate level. Our goal was to make our organization more attractive and engaging, especially for our younger employees, and Amploom actively supported us in giving voice and agency to our under-35s. Thanks to cultural and transformative processes, we succeeded in creating a new and positive energy that remains palpable even today, long after the project’s conclusion.

Valentina and Serena guided us through a process of building AXERA’s Values: a project of shared and participatory identity that involved the entire company.

We were guided with great professionalism, care, and sensitivity: attentive presences, never forceful, capable of holding together method and heart, and creating a safe space where everyone could express themselves with authenticity and thus contribute in a real way to the construction of a common project. THANK YOU!

Amploom and Niuko found the right leverage to improve the processes in question, creating the correct tools to effectively manage the information flow. From an initial analysis, it immediately emerged how necessary it was to get the two areas communicating in the same language, but above all to ensure that every single department brought out the real need for information in order to satisfy the end customer. A few weeks later, the two areas set improvement goals, which they shared and monitor in a 15-minute daily meeting.

I found the course particularly useful and interesting, offering an excellent balance between theory and practical application. It allowed me to approach the service design methodology and envision how to concretely transfer what I learned into my work environment. I found both the instructors to be very well-prepared and the course organization particularly effective.

The project on Axera’s foundational values, developed together with Amploom, represented a key moment in our journey of cultural evolution.

Through an inclusive and participatory approach, which involved the entire company workforce, including leadership and ownership, we were able to build an authentic and shared cultural model and define our value system.

Listening, participation, sharing, engagement, awareness are the key words that describe this journey.

Amploom was a true change facilitator for Axera, capable of guiding us with expertise, sensitivity, and a great ability to understand the organization.

It was an excellent opportunity to, on the one hand, distill what the values truly meant in practice around which we were building the company and to place them at the core of the tools and flows for attracting new talent, and on the other hand, to design rituals to ensure alignment and shared participation in an extremely dynamic startup and constantly evolving environment, where the team worked in a hybridway and felt the need to be as aware as possible of what was happening and how the impact they brought translated into collective value .

Amploom’s approach was incredibly effective. A corporate reality is extremely diverse: different departments require different talents and ways of thinking. However, the common methodology chosen for iMilani, based on Design Thinking, allowed us to leverage feedback and information from sometimes opposing poles of our organization.
The mapping created a deep level of awareness, upon which we developed concrete and measurable action plans. A well–defined path that, while challenging, is clear and exciting.
I am truly enthusiastic about the work done with Amploom and thank them for the list of concrete actions they proposed.

Working with Amploom was useful and stimulating, as well as fun!
The Amploom team was immediately available and attentive to understanding our needs and setting up a customized project for us. The right mix between their expertise and our specific needs!
Thanks to them, we were able to bring forth strategic ideas and reflections for our Industrial Plan, while also incorporating playful activities that helped with team building. So, mission accomplished!
And what can I say, they are all friendly and cheerful people, they put everyone in a good mood 😉

The goal was to capture the essence of design thinking, to observe from other perspectives, and to learn how to generate new ideas while also learning to let them go, following the path of authentic listening. All of this through a process based on clear values and concrete deliverables. Spot on. Bonus track: we learned to get to know each other and work better together.

The process stimulated a constructive dialogue, leading to the definition of concrete proposals that will certainly significantly strengthen knowledge management, information sharing, and visibility into customer issues. I believe that the project in question has fostered an important step forward in the collaboration between the technical office and service. Even today, there is a noticeable improvement in communication between service and the technical office, along with greater operational synergy.
The solutions that emerged are certainly challenging but represent real opportunities to make the service more efficient, enhance internal skills, and ensure increasingly qualified support for customers.

We worked with Amploom on a strategic project for the HR department: a recruiting format based on a hybrid and collaborative challenge. A new way to attract talent and an opportunity for cross-pollination between people from different backgrounds. I greatly appreciated their contribution. They helped us reach our goal with methodology and active listening. They embraced our requirements and knew how to respect our values and our DNA.

Thanks to the commitment of the participants and the support and expertise of Amploom and Niuko, a constructive atmosphere focused on shared problem-solving was immediately established. The collaboration project between the service and technical departments, created to address increasing pressure from requests on one hand and the desire for greater autonomy on the other, began with some doubts regarding its effectiveness and the fear of potential conflicts between the two groups. In just a few sessions, practical and quickly implementable methodologies were defined, which will certainly help achieve the initial objectives of the project. A positive experience that strengthened team spirit and the ability to tackle challenges with a structured method and a common vision.

My experience of designing and co-facilitating some corporate service design workshops with Amploom has been unequivocally positive. We mutually enriched each other. This group of young professionals stands out for precision, diligence, reliability, creativity, and the ability to genuinely connect, “empathize,” with the client. Keep up the great work!
