"UNC Asheville has had the good fortune to enlist the assistance of Carol Rovello on several important Human Resources initiatives in the past few years. Particularly in the area of organizational development, she is among the smartest and most perceptive professionals I have ever worked with in my 25+ years in HR. I especially appreciate the structure that she brings to every project, providing a framework that honors the work of everyone involved. Her instinct for process and insistence on transparency have made for a highly successful combination on our campus. I have high confidence in any project designed and led by Carol Rovello."

Christine Riley, Chief of Staff

"I had the pleasure of engaging Carol Rovello, of Strategic Workplace Solutions, to conduct a strategic planning workshop for the Buncombe County Day Reporting Center Advisory Board. Carol assumed her role with dispatch and was thorough and meticulous in the planning and information gathering process.  She was adept at engaging the Board Members during the exercise to elicit responses and complete a comprehensive analysis of the program.  I would highly recommend Carol and her organization to any company or organization seeking assistance in management, planning and administrative processes."
