Why work with Sherri?
Coaching Philosophy
Sherri’s client-centered executive leadership coaching elevates the self-awareness, thought models, effectiveness, and know-how of individuals, enabling them to generate outstanding performance from diverse teams in an inclusive environment. Sherri specializes in development, not training. Development is an investment in the future success of your organization, not an expense.
Neuroscience
Her leadership development work is based on neuroscience and an understanding of the brain. Her clients find this science-based approach especially useful in increasing their effectiveness in leadership thinking, relationships and decision-making.
Anti-Racism
Sherri is wholeheartedly committed to helping leaders learn to actively mitigate racism and to remove structural racism in their organizations.
