As she continued, Leroy-Beaulieu revealed that Sylvie’s decision to leave Savoir was a calculated plan, instigated by one phone call by American boss Madeline. “The first call with Madeline,” she added, “she’s already thinking, ‘This is not gonna go well. I have to take action. I can’t stand this.'”
In regard to reaching out to Emily about the new opportunity, Leroy-Beaulieu made it clear it wasn’t that surprising in hindsight. “She was not not an Emily fan,” she said. “She really respected Emily for the talent that she had. She saw that this was a young, bold woman that had talent and potential.”
