Leadership Team

Sharon Birkman Fink, President/CEO:

Sharon Birkman Fink has served as the Company's President and CEO since 2002. Originally trained as a singer/musician, Sharon was a National Merit Scholar and Woodrow Wilson Fellow who completed a Master's degree in Music at the University of Texas. She asserts that "any child raised in a family business is always a part of the business" and this makes her Birkman tenure very long indeed.

Throughout the 1990's, Sharon assisted with Birkman training and feedbacks, working in the firm part-time until 2001. In 2005 - 2007, she attended the Owner/President Management program at Harvard Business School. Under her leadership, Birkman has had successive years of growth, profitability and new product development.

She is married to international opera performer, Richard Paul Fink, a dramatic baritone who sings regularly at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, and has three daughters. Sharon is involved with several charitable and civic organizations in the Houston area and is member of the Board of Directors of the Escape Foundation (www.learntoparent.org).
