Change happens here and now.
Where you are now
Longing for Growth
We’ve all been there – at a crossroads, sensing the need for change but feeling unsure of how to proceed. And without the right support, it’s easy to feel stuck—like moving forward is out of reach.
Joy, fulfillment, and progress are within reach, and none of us journey through life alone. Even those we admire most found support along the way.
Where You Can Be
Conscious. Connected. Complete.
You’ll put in the work, and I’ll offer you support, encouragement, and strategies to get there.
These micro interventions will broaden your perspective. You’ll make progress toward your goal, and forever, you’ll have a framework so you’re better equipped for the future and the next challenge.
As your coach, I’ll enlighten you to the tools you have at your disposal, help you navigate change, and walk the path to your dream state. You’ll find relief, success and joy. Life is eager to begin a new conversation with you. If you are willing to listen and change, your world can be transformed.
Hello, I’m Sherry.
CHIEF INSPIRATION OFFICER
awareness agent | change navigator | dream manager
I give help because I got help. . .
Help from family, friends, co-workers, mentors, professors, agencies, coaches. Some would say I was lucky to reach the highest level of professional success in my field, and perhaps I was.
But I know that none of us does it alone. We don’t end up where we do solely based on our own abilities and actions.
I got there with help from multiple coaches over the course of my career.
In April 2024, I retired from my role as a Fortune 200 executive at one of the world’s most admired companies, The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company in Akron, Ohio. As Chief Information Officer for nine years, I guided IT innovation that prepared Goodyear for advancements in the digital era.
While my Global IT strategy was very much focused on digital first, cloud first, and machine first — I prioritized people above technology. I was a human-first Chief Information Officer because I believe we thrive when cultivating ecosystems for people to create, learn, and grow through leadership, trust, and empowerment.
With the Symbiotic Collective, I like to think I’m redefining the CIO role: as Chief Inspiration Officer. I know I have more to give, and I founded the Symbiotic Collective with that passion. Coaching is an essential tool for growth. It’s a gift – for yourself, or for the individuals in your company you look to develop.
I also share my experience and perspectives in the community, leading keynotes and conversation on the future workplace, coaching for change, and transformative leadership.

How It Works
The Coaching Journey
Coaching is a collaborative, personalized process where we’ll work together to clarify your goals, explore tailored strategies, and integrate meaningful changes that align with your long-term vision—ultimately empowering you to navigate challenges with awareness, confidence, and intention
FRAME
We’ll work together to craft a six to nine month engagement, defining a set of desired outcomes for your personal and professional goals. In each session, we’ll co-create a Unit of Work with a focus and objectives that aligns with fulfilling your long-term vision.
EXPERIMENT
Through biweekly or monthly in-person or virtual coaching sessions, we’ll unlock strategies and solutions you can put to work. I apply a client-centered approach, meeting you where you are right now, focusing on your own thoughts, challenges, and goals. We’ll co-create experiments and I’ll help bring your own tools and resources into your awareness.
REINFORCE
This is where we move from the “what is” to the “so what.” You’ll put your learning into action, make the desired change, and integrate the new awareness, insight or learning into your way of being in the world. I’ll support your progress and integration while you maintain ownership for your action plan and outcomes.
