Scherer Excellence published the 2025 ICF Global Coaching Study, which found that nearly six in ten coaching clients are now sponsored by their employers.

How you live, lead, and succeed has an architecture. It is yours to shape. Scherer Excellence™ is executive coaching and strategic advisory for executives, founders, and senior professionals who want professional contribution and personal fulfillment to strengthen one another. The ways people learn to succeed can become mistaken for requirements of success itself. Expectations, responsibilities, priorities, and established ways of operating gradually form an architecture that shapes how success is created and experienced. Scherer Excellence makes that architecture visible. The Scherer Excellence Success Architecture™ provides the framework. Strategic Refinement™ provides the process for determining what to protect, strengthen, refine, or remove. This work helps successful people think more clearly about what they have accepted as part of success, recognize where greater choice is available, and shape a way of living and leading that supports both the contribution they want to make and the life they want to experience. The result is one architecture with two returns: Greater professional contribution. Greater personal fulfillment. As executives shape their own architecture, they model the judgment and ownership that enable others to shape theirs. Personal fulfillment does not compete with professional contribution. It strengthens it. Scherer Excellence also brings this perspective to organizations through strategic consulting and keynote speaking. Founded by Cynthia Scherer, PCC, Scherer Excellence is informed by more than two decades of executive leadership with Fairmont Hotels & Resorts, including The Plaza in New York and Fairmont Washington, D.C., followed by consulting and leadership coaching within Amazon operations.
