Testimonials:
“Cynthia provided me with invaluable guidance and resources in adjusting to the business environment here in Barcelona. While other ex-pat business colleagues complained of their frustrations and loneliness, I found myself with a newfound and growing curiosity and openness that has changed the way I listen and communicate with my team. The results are reflected in higher productivity and performance. These are skills that I’ll be able to use for the rest of my life in all my relationships.”
– Management consultant working in Spain for an American-based IT company.
“I’ve done some important work around developing new habits that help me bring more openness and passion to my work – going with my heart rather than just my head and feeling tremendously empowered by that. And more success as a business leader has naturally followed. ”
