Silvio is a bright, talented manager and inspirational leader. Extremely professional and result oriented, he was responsible to turn around Behr Brasil during his time as CEO of the company. He led us to a higher level, which endures up to today long after his depart. Many of us own him so much because we became better professionals ourselves. I can testify to his solid track record of results and highly recommend him.
