MaryBeth Hyland, the Founder and Chief Visionary of SparkVision, decided to leave after leading her over a decade successful career in nonprofit management, in order to advocate for creating values-driven culture workplaces where people are embraced with their own authentic stories, imperfections, and values. Although most organizations and companies have their core values displayed on their walls, MaryBeth endeavors to make these people figure out whether these values are truly embodied by their people or merely lip service. And when they finally get
intentional, she helps live in alignment with them.

Highlights:

• Speaking her truth about being a child of abuse (which explains why she also rallies for foster parenting) exemplified to other people that they can be respectable and successful by showing up authentically.  
• The magnitude of community connections established and lives changed by speaking your truth, especially by stepping into the perspective of power instead of the place of victimhood cannot be underestimated.
• SparkVision is a space where individuals and organizations are led to intentionally identify their values, eliminate what does not serve them, and eventually live in alignment with those that serve their individual and collective purpose.

Her awards and recognitions from different award-giving bodies affirm her reputation of being a human engagement expert. If you ever wonder about your own values or if you still need to identify  and understand  why  you  have   them   both  in  personal   and  organizational contexts,
MaryBeth could guide you. You may listen to this podcast, read her book “Permission to be Human”, or look her up on LinkedIn, and join events at sparkvisionnow.com.
