Meet Sylvia Lafair
For more than 35 years, Dr. Sylvia Lafair has helped leaders transform the way they communicate, navigate conflict, and lead through change.
Her work is built on one simple but profound insight: the greatest barriers to leadership are often invisible. The patterns we learned long before we entered the workplace continue to shape how we respond under pressure—unless we learn to recognize them.
That's why Sylvia created The GLIMMERS Effect™ as a practical leadership framework to help leaders recognize the critical moments between a trigger and a reaction. In those moments, awareness replaces instinct, better choices emerge, and lasting leadership transformation begins.
When leaders change their patterns, everything else changes.
