Typical Results Working with Non-profit Clients

• Helped large nonprofit with dropping membership and revenues reposition itself to meet societal needs not being met by others, resulting in increased partners and media attention, improved staff morale, and more focused, courageous board leadership.
• Presented a rousing keynote presentation that led members to take positive actions on behalf of their organization and the issues in which they believe.
• Shifted board behavior from dysfunctional management oversight to true, financially sound, fiscal/policy/strategic/generative leadership, resulting in a more dynamic organization.
• Reorganized staff that was being given increased responsibilities at the same time they were losing key leaders, so they could achieve long term success through a more appropriate business model.
• Coached staff to achieve a connective organizational culture, resulting in greater member/board satisfaction, lower staff turnover, and more cross-departmental, cost-saving projects.

"Carpenter's Shelter was blessed the day Sherry Schiller walked through our doors and volunteered to guide us strategically. Sherry has taught me to look within, articulate my thoughts, trust my gut and challenge myself to see the bigger picture. Her energy, vision, and dedication to our mission energize me to think big and think blue sky. Thank you, Sherry, for being a friend of the Shelter. You are helping us rebuild fragile lives, strengthen families and make a better tomorrow for hundreds of children."
