Hi.
We're Andrea, Matt and Daniel.​
We call ourselves Amada Partners (go ahead, you can figure it out). ​
​
We help top leaders do great work, and have fun doing it. And, in turn, help their teams and companies thrive.
​
When you think about it, your team relies on you everyday.
​​
For leadership, insight, wisdom, and support.
​
But who do you rely on?
Rely on us.
Call us advisors, coaches, consultants, confidants, sidekicks, thought partners or sherpas.​ Bottom line: we're here to help, however you need us.
We’ll help you address your biggest issues - with your team, your business, and you. And work over time to turn them into opportunities.
​
And we’re here for the in-the-moment issues, too. When you need to brainstorm, to vent, to get some insight, you can count on us. We’re just a call away.​
​
We want you to tell us that "I don't know how I ever did this without you."
​
(Which is something that our clients actually tell us).
Why work with us?
Because we've done it, built it, sold it, and screwed it up. We know them, hired them, charmed them, and offended them.
​
You're world class and we are, too. We've started and sold companies to Apple and Microsoft (Matt), managed training at Robert Half (Andrea), and been the first Head of People at Uber (Daniel). And that's just the highlights. We know what it means to push for performance every second of the day - we've been doing it for decades.​
It Takes a Village
Usually, when you hire a coach, you get someone's who's, well, a good coach.
With Amada, we jump in to give you the help you need, whether it's focused on communication, stress-reduction, team management, deal structure, or hiring. We go beyond theory and coaching – we're focused on real-world problem-solving. All three partners are available to work with you, in a way that's customized to your needs, delivering a breadth of experience and insight that a single person can't possibly deliver.
And, yes: we're excellent coaches, too.
We've Taught It, Too
Doing is one thing, coaching and teaching and supporting are another. We've coached people at some of the top companies on the planet, with great results.
Of note: Matt and Andrea founded Oji Life Lab, a groundbreaking leadership training firm that worked with amazing experts like Linda Hill from Harvard Business School, Marc Brackett from the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, and Ralph Keeney from Duke/USC. We bring some of that Oji mojo to every conversation.

Where We Can Help
The box we live in is business, not coaching. We'll help you tackle issues in a wide range of key business areas.​​​
Getting Started
If this all sounds interesting, click here to schedule a call and we can talk in more detail. We’re happy to answer your questions. And, we can explore whether there’s a good fit between what we do and what you need.
If you decide to proceed, we’ll start with an in-depth conversation - usually over a long lunch - where we'll start to get to know you and learn about what's on your radar. Then, we'll develop a plan together that addresses the most important issues – and opportunities – that you’re facing.
And, yes: we’ve got an app that will help us plan our sessions, manage your learning process, and help us stay in touch.
