Marcellini de Fatima Leão da Costa

Marcellini Leão da Costa

Founder, ANCHOR Consulting Open for new projects

I'm the founder of ANCHOR Consulting. Over thirteen years I've worked at the intersection of IT, operations and logistics, across four shipping companies and international projects spanning Brazil, Germany and Sweden. I've managed product backlogs, stepped into interim project management, led global change programmes reaching hundreds of users, and coordinated cross-regional rollouts end to end.

What drives that work is a habit of staying curious. I don't think thirteen years of experience is ever the whole answer, so I keep looking outward: at how other people, other industries and other disciplines solve problems, and at what that can teach me about running transformation differently. That's what took me back to studying, and I recently completed an MSc in Cyberpsychology, researching the psychological and societal impact of AI bias. I've kept that research going since, not as an academic exercise but as part of how I develop myself and how I help clients think through what responsible, human-centred AI adoption actually looks like in practice.

I moved to Hällefors, Sweden in 2026 after ten years in Germany, and I'm building ANCHOR Consulting from here: remote-first, open to hybrid or on-site work anywhere in Sweden, and available to travel further across the EU when a project calls for it.

Jag bor i Hällefors och lär mig svenska. Hör av dig gärna, annars går det lika bra på engelska, tyska eller portugisiska.

New Client Offer

Let's talk before you commit to anything

Bringing in outside help is a decision that deserves an easy first step, not a sales pitch.

Start with a conversation, not a contract

Send over your project scope and the budget you're working with, and I'll come back with an honest read: whether it's a good fit, what it would take, and what I'd genuinely recommend, even if that's not me.

Free scope call

Up to 30 minutes, no strings attached, to test the fit honestly on both sides.

One day on the house

A full day of consultancy for new clients, so you see how we work together first.

Discounted first month

A fair introductory rate on any new retainer, so value is proven before you commit long-term.

Case Studies

Selected work

18 case studies in progress

A set of visual case studies, each covering the context, approach and outcome of a real project, is being brought over here from ANCHOR's own design library.

Check back soon, or ask directly and I'll walk you through a few that are closest to your kind of project.
