Producing high quality, clear and simple end products that support the objectives of the business; and
-
Establishing open and honest relationships with stakeholders.

Sherry learned her disciplined approach to work through her six years of living, studying and working in Japan where she dedicated herself to learning the language and understanding the culture. She has an undergraduate degree in Sociology and Anthropology from one of Japan’s top universities and an MBA and the Advanced Program in HR Management from the Rotman School of Management.
A life-long learner, Sherry has achieved the ATC and ACC formal designations in executive coaching and has multiple other credentials in specialty HR areas such as CMP (Prosci ADKAR) and HCI’s Strategic Workforce Planning and Agile Performance Management.
