reputation as one who delivers practical solutions, that she freely admits are unearthed and
developed with the help from the unrecognized experts in American industry, those on the
ground, the voiceless staffs of the corporations she serves. The application of this
methodology is at the heart of the One Voice Institute of Elemental Ethics and Education, that
is, to document and amplify the voices of the true experts in academia, the educators
themselves. Ms. Pittella, based on studies of Piaget, Kohlberg, and Gilligan, developed a
unique theory of integration of ethics language and concepts with standard pedagogy that has
been published, and is the focus of her presentations to regional, national, and international
audiences.
