Evelina inspires you to get out of your comfort zone to help you realize the extent of your potential. She does this by thoughtful inquiry and guides you on your journey. The completed project is always better with her guidance, support and gentle re-direction when needed. She encourages you to think of all the great possibilities instead of being stuck in the comfortable now. She will challenge long standing processes with the goal of re-evaluating for the best possible outcomes. She helps others develop the skills they will need to continue with future projects with a mindset that is open and curious. Again always with the goal of the best results for all involved. Evelina asks the questions which begin you on your journey of continuous improvement and never settling on status quo. My green belt project would have never been as successful and so well received had it not been for Evelina’s on going support until the very end. We are so proud of the project and the positive impact it has had. I know whatever Evie is involved with she gives it her heart, her mind and her passion.
