TESTIMONIALS
Marybeth Carty
Carpinteria Education Foundation
I enthusiastically recommend Cynder's ability to provide strategic planning facilitation for your organization. I have had the good fortune of knowing and working with Cynder for about seven years now, and have marveled at her adeptness at focusing a group, digging deep into key issues, getting to consensus and delivering an actionable work plan and goals. It is a revitalizing exercise for board members and staff, and a fun process to participate in. She has presented at meetings for the Carpinteria Woman's Club, was instrumental in the formation of the Corporate Philanthropy Roundtable, and facilitated strategic planning for the Carpinteria Education Foundation-all to the complete satisfaction of attendees...no small feat!

Cynder's excellent team building skills and responsible nature ensure exceptional follow through and a strong commitment to her work. Through her passion and expertise she engaged our Board of Directors and Staff "to think outside the box" during a planning session to advance our mission. During this planning process she had the ability to analyze problems, distinguish issues, and devise creative solutions to keep the process moving toward accomplishing our strategic goals with a new sense of perspective and enthusiasm. I am confident that Cynder would be a great asset to any organization or company that could benefit from her talent and leadership.

Cynder completely gets it. She devotes so much of herself into everything she undertakes and her passion for helping is contagious! Cynder understands non-profits and is a fantastic listener! She's strategic and helps me navigate complex dynamics. Cynder gets to the core of our challenges and is exceptional at keeping confidence and bringing people together.
