I chose power over permission. You Can Too.

I help utility leaders stop playing small inside broken systems. No fluff. Just bold strategy, lean execution, and real results.

Meet AMES

I’m Anne-Mari Seberger (aka ‘AMES’), consultant, executive coach, and founder of Optima Advisory Partners. I work with utility executives who are tired of broken systems and watered-down results. I’ve been in your shoes—fighting budget pressures, burnout, and bureaucracy. I chose a different path. Now I help others do the same.

Let’s turn your leadership into a force for clarity, courage, and credibility.

Who I Work With

Together we eliminate chaos, clarify direction, and build the systems that fuel sustainable impact—from the field to the boardroom.

Operations leaders in energy, infrastructure, and water

Analyzing data to create a sustainable way forward
We break through bottlenecks, eliminate waste, and operationalize improvement ideas faster—so the field sees real change, not just another directive.

Change agents ready to stop playing small

Collaborating with stakeholders for better impact
You’re done waiting for permission. I partner with bold thinkers ready to align people, processes, and priorities to drive results that matter.

Utility executives and directors

Looking ahead and using the power of foresight for future-readiness
I help senior leaders see across silos, sharpen their strategic lens, and lead with data-backed confidence—even under regulatory, financial, and political pressure.
