Sylvia Lovely often introduces herself as a lawyer by training, a CEO by experience and a media mogul … in her dreams.   As an author of numerous articles published across the country and of two books of stories of communities and their leaders :  The Little Blue Book of Big Ideas and The Little Red Book of Everyday Heroes, she loves to tell and hear stories that inform our lives.

She notes that Daniel Pink, author of A Whole New Mind, and Warren Bennis, leadership guru, in his book Judgment, talk of the growing popularity of storytelling as a tool that cuts across the lives of both individuals and those who lead them. Without a cogent narrative of your past, your present and your future, you cannot be successful as a leader.

Sylvia has taught storytelling to audiences at the National League of Cities and the International City Managers Association and others. She wants to launch the “Chronicles of the Chevy S-10” to both share her stories and hear yours.
