One of the key projects Mr. Sherman has led is the development and production of a book on organizational change efforts by groups involved in environmental and social issues entitled, “A View from Within: A Practical Guide to Personal Vitality and Nonprofit Management.” Dan’s career supporting nonprofit enterprise dates back to his
