FEATURED IN AND SEEN ON 

I'M

CHERYL GRACE

As the founding CEO of Powerful Penny LLC, I bring over 30 years of executive corporate leadership and transitional coaching to the table. Our company goal is straightforward yet impactful: steer your organization to unparalleled success by tapping into the true potential of your most valuable asset – your people. This not only improves retention but also contributes significantly to your company’s bottom line.

We:

  • help emerging high potentials seamlessly transition to new roles, or increased visibility
  • act as straight-shooters and trusted advisors for executives who want to overcome a specific plateau
  • help managers craft future-focused strategies for themselves and/or their teams
  • strategize with human resources experts to create a workplace culture of inclusion, engagement and loyalty

As a Black woman and former single mom who rose through the executive ranks of corporate America, inclusivity is the heart of our mission. We’re fueled by assessing and offering honest insights to your teams, guiding them through overcoming workplace challenges and unlocking untapped capabilities, thereby strengthening the intersectionality between their home and work lives.

If it’s important to you to foster a diverse and thriving ecosystem of belonging and to revitalize your employees’  loyalty (during an era where jumping ship seems to be more on trend), schedule a Discovery Conversation today. We’re on standby to help.
