About this listen
In this episode of The SAFE Leader Podcast, Mark McBride-Wright is joined by technologist, entrepreneur, and systems thinker Stephanie Sylvestre, whose career spans global corporations, public service, and community impact. From her early ambitions growing up in Belize to leading transformation in organisations like Burger King and The Children’s Trust, Stephanie shares how her work has always centred on one core idea: technology should uplift people, not replace them. The conversation explores leadership, trust, and how expectations shape human potential, from building homes through community volunteering to scaling social impact through technology.
Stephanie also takes us inside the story behind Avatar Buddy, her AI platform designed to give people intuitive digital mentors and create digital twins that preserve knowledge, culture, and lived experience. Together they discuss the future of AI, how leaders can stay human in a rapidly changing technological world, and why access to knowledge can unlock opportunity for communities everywhere.
