Principal Advisor – Board & Executive Partner
Dec 2024
Empowering NPOs and Social Economy organizations to bridge the gap between governance oversight and operational excellence.
As the Principal of Synergie Sherpa, I leverage a unique "triple perspective"—as a veteran CEO, a Certified Director (C.Dir, ASC), and a seasoned Mentor—to help organizations navigate transitions, align their leadership, and maximize their social impact.
Key areas of partnership:
Board & CEO Synergy: Facilitating the critical relationship between the Board Chair and the Executive Director. I act as a strategic bridge to ensure fiduciary duties align with operational realities, reducing leader isolation and fostering a culture of lucid, productive dialogue.
Interim & Fractional Executive Leadership: Providing stable, high-impact leadership during periods of transition, turnaround, or growth. I step in as an Interim CEO or COO to secure organizational health, stabilize teams, and manage strategic repositioning.
Strategic Governance Advisory: Supporting Boards of Directors in modernizing their oversight, with a specific focus on integrating Digital Transformation, AI adoption, and Cybersecurity risks into the long-term corporate strategy.
Executive Mentorship & Posture: Tailored 1-on-1 mentoring for newly appointed or high-potential Executive Directors. I help them build confidence, navigate complex board dynamics, and sharpen their strategic execution.
External Strategic Gaze: Delivering objective, structured assessments for major organizational projects or when a neutral, expert perspective is needed to unlock complex situations.
