Team members discover talents, develop strengths
Sylvia has brought very powerful insights into how to develop talent through sharing stories and reflecting upon experiences together with younger team members. Working with Sylvia has helped me to step back and recognize growth opportunities for our organization while helping to ensure that experiences and hard won lessons are used to strengthen the team. All in all working with Sylvia has been a pleasure and I wholeheartedly recommend her for those looking to grow and develop their teams for good.
