Participant Stories

As an HR professional, I was seeing the trend of diminished investment in people happening at a lot of firms. It was a big reason I came to Hylant, which very much views the investment in our people as a long-term dividend. We sent 20 people to the People Management for Emerging Leaders program, and the feedback I got was overwhelmingly positive. Wharton helped them put their knowledge into practice. You can have all the right answers, and know everything about finance or marketing or strategy, but if you don’t communicate clearly and consistent with your values, it will keep you from achieving your desired results."

Mario Kyriakides Vice President of Talent Development, Hylant Insurance
