Meet Christine Silver
Born from an a-HA! moment (and a near pencil-to-the-eye incident).
After 12 years in HR, drowning in policies and compliance, Christine was ready for something different—something that didn’t make her want to stab herself with a pencil. She craved real conversations about people, growth, and leadership.
Then came the lightbulb moment: a workshop with a management consultant. The second he started, she thought, That. That’s what I want to do.
One mentor (and one brave leap) later, she ditched the corporate grind and built a reputation as a sharp, no-nonsense facilitator and coach. Two decades and thousands of clients later, she’s still at it—helping leaders navigate the tough people stuff with practical, real-world solutions.
Now based in Eugene, Oregon, Silver Business Solutions LLC supports small to mid-size organizations in both the non- and for-profit sectors.
Watch as CEO Ken and his executive team attempt to discuss company problems with the staff at an all-hands meeting.
PS: He’s a good CEO.
Client Testimonials
"If a person needs to hire or manage somebody they should absolutely take this class. I guarantee that you and your company will be rewarded."
"How effortlessly you control a crowd – and no crowd too large! We estimated 160 people in attendance at the peak of the evening. Thank you for your key role in making this event a success. What a spell you cast on the crowd! They were on track and from our perspective, easy, responsive, and engaged."
"I very much appreciate your candor, encouragement, and practical teaching style. You are able to create such a comfortable atmosphere for learning and sharing. And you just gotta love an instructor who’s not too stuffy to giggle and snort!"
"Christine Silver’s words really give me a lot to consider as I improve my skillset as a leader, wife, sister, daughter, friend, and ally. I love how elegant her tool is and how it helps me prepare whenever I need to share positive and negative feedback. Christine’s decades of experience and real-life situations and examples are inspiring. We can be afraid of having a hard conversation and yet still do it, still heal ourselves.”
"I have worked with Christine Silver for more than 2 1⁄2 years and the time I have spent with her has been invaluable. I have had monthly one-on-one sessions throughout that time, and have also attended an 8 month Management Development Program with Christine at the helm."
"I have had the pleasure of attending a number of Christine’s training classes. She brings a vitality to her presentations that keeps them lively and interesting. I was never tempted to ‘nod off’ as I have been in most other training classes. Highly effective transfer of information and a cut-to-the-chase, no-bull style that was really refreshing."
