Organizational Transformation
From Vision to Execution with Sherpa Leadership
The Sherpa are an indigenous people of Nepal with a history, language, and spiritual tradition that extends far beyond mountaineering. In this work, I use Sherpa as a metaphor β a symbol of service, resilience, humility, and community.
Our consulting approach draws inspiration from the spirit of guidance that Sherpas embody, while honoring their full identity and heritage beyond the narrow Western understanding of "guide."
