Sherri Garrity is the founder of Corporate Fugitive, a training and consulting company that offers step-by-step information and support to help business owners go from feeling like an overwhelmed employee to an extraordinary entrepreneur. She advises entrepreneurs how to save valuable time, energy and money by setting themselves up for success and creating a custom fit business. Sherri left a 20-year career in marketing and corporate communications to start her own corporate consulting practice, Make It Count Communications, in 2007 after a health crisis and the worlds of career and parenting collided. Her career path and entrepreneurial journey are living proof that breaking free from the unexpected can lead to an extraordinary business and transform your life.

Today she provides consulting and business advising services to entrepreneurs and businesses seeking to improve their workplace culture (or life) and bottom line.

Her professional accomplishments include managing the internal communications for reorganizations and corporate acquisitions of international companies, community relations and international marketing of Canada’s first high level containment laboratory, dealing with media on numerous controversial issues, and developing internal and branding strategies for a national corporate citizenship program. She has worked in numerous sectors and brings this diverse perspective to her business clients.

She uses her professional background and down-to-earth writing and speaking style to develop information and training materials, popular articles on small business and transition topics, and to work privately with a select group of clients.

Sherri recently rediscovered her childhood passion of horses. She  will begin to offer equine assisted development workshops in 2011.

Sherri lives in Birds Hill, near Winnipeg, Manitoba in Central Canada. Most of her clients are in the USA, proving that geography is no restriction for entrepreneurs today.
