Awards

Cynthia does an incredible job of nurturing our group, building trust between us, giving us the room to shape our own Fellowship experience. She herself is a great role model, and has a wealth of experience about group dynamics, facilitation, leadership, and board governance to teach us. I also appreciate her energy in creating new opportunities for us, by finding the best trainers, introducing us to our mayor, thinking through how to have truly meaningful interactions.
