Empowerment. Leadership. Unquenchable motivation. Hope.

These are perhaps some of the best ways to describe the skills and talents which have served to define Sherry Ann Dixon over the years. Such traits have also enabled her to rise through the echelons of professional society in order to arrive at the pinnacle of success. Her accolades are as impressive as her personal sense of duty to the public and therefore, it only stands to reason that a modicum of recognition is in order. Having said this, greatness is not only measured by one's list of prior accomplishments. It is also gauged by the impact that an individual has upon the world. This is when Sherry Ann Dixon truly begins to shine. In many cases, greatness is born at an early age. It is therefore no surprise that Sherry Ann began displaying many of the traits mentioned above at a mere six years old. Whether referring to her adult roles as a magazine editor, a motivational speaker or as the founder of Women on the Crossroads, there is little doubt that her impact has been felt throughout numerous communities. The fact that she chooses to continue her work into the present day is a further testament to her unwavering commitment to empowerment through both personal and societal change.

An Unparalleled Level of Hands-On Experience

Unlike some other personalities who have been honoured in recent times, Sherry Ann Dixon has based many of her principles upon interactions with some of the most well-known personalities in the world. These include (but are certainly not limited to) Sir Nelson Mandela, Dr. Maya Angelou, Margaret Thatcher, and Baroness Doreen Lawrence. It is often said that we build ourselves by standing upon the shoulders of giants, so it is only logical to observe that her ability to gain inspiration by these true global icons has served to shape her empowerment techniques over the years. A Constant Sense of Personal Evolution

- Sherry Ann Dixon has likewise made it a point to constantly evolve in terms of her professional and interpersonal skills. Originally stemming from a background in beauty and public relations, she has since branched out into the worlds of editing, journalism, transformational lecturing, and mentoring. This multi-faceted approach has enabled her to reach out to various segments of society; particularly the BAME community, women and children.

Thus, she also serves as a powerful role model who continues to inspire the younger generation. These are perhaps some of the reasons why she was honoured enough to deliver keynote addresses to both the House of Parliament and the House of Lords; two accolades which should never be taken lightly.
