Taylor Salamanca
Founder and Managing Director
Former Learning Operations Specialist at Uber. Onboarding, train the trainer, SOPs and root cause work when the numbers slip.
Bevel & Sloane LLC is an Illinois company founded and led by Taylor Salamanca, a Former Learning Operations Specialist at Uber who rolled out onboarding across more than 20 sites in that role. The firm builds SOPs, onboarding academies and KPIs for teams of 10 to 250 and trains an internal successor to own them.
My career has centered on how teams learn, line up and get work done at scale. As a Former Learning Operations Specialist at Uber, I worked on operational readiness and site launches: rolling out onboarding across more than 20 sites, building train the trainer programs, writing SOPs and digging into the root cause whenever the numbers slipped.
Then a close friend's sales business started growing faster than its training could keep up. Senior closers were pulled off the field to shadow new hires. New reps lacked the basics. Early turnover was climbing. I stepped in for what was supposed to be a quick fix.
We mapped the customer lifecycle, wrote short field SOPs, replaced ad hoc shadowing with targeted learning modules and hired for quality over volume. The business stabilized. That one project became the blueprint for Bevel & Sloane.
