Courage, leadership and the power to overcome any obstacle lie within us all: this is the message of Sherry’s compelling programs. As president, she tripled the size of In Reach, Inc. – a management education and consulting firm – despite a diagnosis of Stage IV pancreatic cancer in 1995. While hospitalized and faced with a life expectancy of eight weeks, Sherry discovered the inner resources she needed to battle for survival. Later she found that her struggle had strengthened her focus and resolve in every part of her life. Now she shares her hard-won lessons with corporate executives and patients alike, inspiring them to take charge, face the odds and win.

In addition to her remarkable story, Sherry brings the best in people skills and technological sophistication to her programs as she has become one of the premier women training facilitators in the world. Her 25 year career in training and development has allowed her to attain a “Top Ten” status in understanding the personnel development strategies of successful organizations and successful people. Her uncanny knowledge of “people skills” has lead her to develop some of the most highly requested programs on employee retention, self-learning teams, peak performance, and balancing work and home.

Some of the clients that have benefited from her thought-provoking programs include the leaders of Ford Motor Company, AT&T, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Neuroscience Education Institute, Hewlett-Packard, the Chrysler Corporation, American Express, 3M, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Defense.
