Former EVP/GM
Logo
Sherman just stepped down from her post last month, but she leaves behind a proud legacy. Following its best year ever in 2012, Logo has continued to evolve and expand its audience in recent months. Sherman was also key to locking in a script deal with Cher and attracting talent to the tentpole event “Logo NewNowNext Awards 2013.” “When you foster an environment of inclusion that allows employees to bring their whole selves to work each day, it’s hard not to be successful,” she says. We look forward to hearing about Sherman’s next adventure.
