I have observed how Shyamli brings her passion, honesty and a deep desire to excel in all her workshops related to leadership effectiveness. Her ability to connect and make a meaningful impact on her audience based on the content and context of her training modules makes her a valued coach and facilitator for senior leaders. I would strongly recommend her for senior management training programs.
I have known Shyamli for a few years and she has regularly conducted leadership communication workshops and training programs for our company.
The participants always found the programs well designed and structured, and full of fun and learning.
Shyamli’s preparation for each of the programs is very detailed as she speaks to the participants in advance to understand their needs and then matches this with the objectives of the organization.
She has a special ability to connect with participants of all levels which they always appreciate.
I had the pleasure of attending various leadership workshops conducted for senior business leaders at Cairn by Ms. Shyamli Rathore in the areas of Emotional Intelligence, Managing Talent, Building your Leadership Presence and some others. I was struck by her excellent understanding of the business and ability to make seemingly esoteric concepts very applicable to the work that we were doing in a simple and engaging manner. Shyamli’s ability to create a huge engagement with her audience (despite their diversity), her powerful facilitation style and ability to ask relevant questions related to the business problems made me internalize and use these concepts effectively. I have attended many workshops during my career, but I would rate her work as one of the best I have come across so far and would recommend her to any organization of repute. I wish her all the success and happiness in her venture.
