Cindy Pascale
When she combined her 16+ years of HR, Training & Development and OD leadership experience, with her 12 years of talent management consulting, one axiom proved to be true—Managers want to take action to engage, retain and develop their employees. Yet they don’t. Not because they don’t want to, but because they don’t know what to do. This simple fact led Cindy and her business partner to develop learning content that is “changing the face of learning”. Cindy has over 20 years of Human Resources, Sales & Marketing and Operations experience. Before co-founding Vado, she: Was a SVP & Partner for a employee engagement provider, leading the sales, marketing and business development functions As the President & COO, led an assessment services organization delivering employee surveys and 360 degree assessments Lead the Human Resources, Training & Development and Organizational Development functions for a mid-sized software company and a medical device manufacturing company.
