FILI Consulting helps companies reduce integration risk and accelerate value realization during post-merger integration and organizational transformation. We focus on aligning leadership, culture, and execution readiness to ensure strategy translates into outcomes.
Ensure your deal delivers its full value by addressing the people, culture, and behavioral risks that most often erode ROI.
Gain a holistic and honest view of organizational readiness, so you move forward with confidence—not assumption.
Keep transformation on track, build internal change capability, and ensure momentum doesn’t just start strong—it finishes strong.
Senior perspective at the moments that matter most
We have led M&A integration and organizational transformation from within some of the world's most complex organizations, navigating the trade-offs, pivots, and decisions that determine execution success. That experience informs how we identify and mitigate integration risk early.
Fluency across strategy and the human side
We understand how transformation is designed and how it is experienced in practice. This dual perspective allows us to identify leadership misalignment, cultural friction, and execution risk before they impact value realization.
A partner who moves with you, not behind you
We operate alongside executive teams during post-merger integration and transformation execution, providing clarity in real time as decisions shape outcomes and organizational momentum.
Accountable for outcomes, not just advice
We stay engaged beyond recommendations, focused on supporting execution alignment, sustaining momentum, and improving transformation outcomes where value is actually realized or lost.

Before founding FILI, she spent more than a decade leading change at Fortune 500 and middle-market companies across healthcare, technology, and manufacturing. She founded FILI to help leaders get the people side of change right, because that is where value is ultimately won or lost.
Firsthand experience. Independent perspective.
"Slajana worked in my change management team at GSK and I was very impressed with her performance. Slajana was able to operate at both a strategic and operational delivery level. Our complex global programme cut across multiple regions and markets with numerous work streams and packages of work... Slajana often followed a methodical and considered approach in everything she did, and was not afraid to diplomatically question the status quo where she believed something could be done differently with better results. "
Global Change Leader, Fortune Global 500 Consumer Healthcare Company
"I had the pleasure of working directly with Slajana for almost a year, as she led change management for two different workstreams in a large transformational technology migration... She fiercely advocated for end users, escalating as needed when program decisions would impact users out in the business. It was a pleasure having Slajana's steadfast presence on the team and I would welcome the chance to work together again in the future. "
Director of Change Management, Fortune 500 Technology Company
"I was so fortunate to work with Slajana in 2024 while she supported one of Adobe's largest transformations and helped us lead change management efforts... Slajana brought a wealth of expertise and knowledge supporting the global sales team's move from Salesforce to Microsoft Dynamics 365, and her expertise was critical to laying the foundation for success."

Two organizations are coming together and culture integration needs to be actively led, not left to chance
M&A execution risks need to be identified before they erode deal value
Leadership needs an honest, independent readiness assessment before a major transformation launches
The stakes are high enough that getting the people side right matters more than getting it fast
The best time to get this right is before it goes wrong.
Navigating an integration or transformation? This is the right time to talk.
