15 years as a technology CEO – public and private companies, three different industries
Delivered significant revenue and profit growth in a mature, multi-billion dollar business unit

Jump started and operationalized a Series B, venture-backed, scale-up software company, resulting in a strategic exit
13 years serving on for-profit boards, public and private
20 years of Fortune 200 experience gaining deep functional expertise in strategy development, building winning teams and a results-oriented culture, product development, creating new revenue streams, improving service delivery models, and driving operational excellence.
Legacy of developing leaders and great teams
When he isn’t working with clients, Sherman is blessed with an amazing family and loves spending time with them. He is an avid outdoorsman and loves getting on the water and hitting the trails.
“As a company matures, it usually requires a unique blending of founders and outside leadership to take it to the next level. Sherman proved very adept at finding the right combination to enable scale-up growth while maintaining the entrepreneurial culture at the company. Also, his board experience helped facilitate a highly effective environment for decision making at the board of directors.”
