Dr. Sherryl Dimitry

Lead Catalyst and Principal, The Human Futures Design Lab

After a dynamic career leading organizational change and talent strategy across Fortune 500 companies, global engineering firms, and federal agencies, Sherryl Dimitry recently retired from corporate life to focus on what she cares about most: developing effective, authentic and future-proof leaders, and helping professional and executive women navigate bold career transitions with clarity, confidence, and purpose.

As a former People Executive, Managing Consultant, and Global Talent Leader, Sherryl spent over two decades guiding organizations through complexity and transformational change—whether modernizing HR systems for 600,000+ employees, building inclusive leadership pipelines, or coaching high-potential talent into the C-suite. Sherryl now brings that same strategic insight and human-centered approach to individuals and organizations ready to redefine their next chapter.

Sherryl holds a Ph.D. in Organizational Systems, with research focused on a systemic analysis of the gender gap in the corporate C-suite. She has published widely on leadership, change, and equity, and her work has been featured in Training Industry Magazine, HR People & Strategy, OD Journal, and World Futures, among others. She has also served as a speaker and advisor for HR.com, the Conference Board, and the International Systems Institute.

Sherryl works with women who are ready to pivot, reimagine, or rise—whether that means stepping into leadership, shifting industries, or designing a life that finally aligns with their values. Her approach blends systems thinking, deep coaching, and a fierce belief in the power of women to lead change—on their terms.
