ABOUT OUR FOUNDER:
Working with clients in the private, nonprofit, and public sectors, Laurie Sherman helps professionals bring their work to the next level. She does this by working with leaders to identify and strengthen existing professional muscles and develop new ones — to enhance performance, impact, and career satisfaction. The ON BALANCE approach is a mix of head and heart, process and product. So when Laurie's clients are stuck on a particular business challenge, they know they can count on respect, straight talk, empathy, and creative problem-solving — with a focus on results. Laurie is certified in Executive Coaching through BECI at U.C. Berkeley's Haas School of Business, and received a Master's in Management from the Heller School at Brandeis University.
