What We Do

Strategy that moves the needle, not just the deck.

From startup hustle to enterprise scale, every engagement is built around what your organization actually needs, not a templated playbook.

Partnership & Revenue Development

Enterprise partnerships, corporate giving, grant strategy, major donor cultivation, and earned revenue models. We build the relationships and the revenue engine behind them, from first outreach to signed agreement, so your funding mix stops depending on any single source.

Sustainability & ESG Integration

Good sustainability strategy delivers wins you can report on now and builds advantages that compound. We identify the quick wins first: waste reduction, supplier audits, circularity pilots that generate data and stakeholder confidence. Then we build the longer-term frameworks around ESG reporting, circular economy adoption, and sustainable program design that position you ahead of where the market is heading.

Business Operations & AI Integration

The unsexy work that unlocks growth: process design, org structure, and workflow optimization, paired with practical AI integration that delivers measurable results. A recent AI workflow project in partnership with Dell reduced labor costs by 60%, effectively increasing team output by 150% without adding headcount. We find those same leverage points in your organization and automate the friction away without losing the human touch.

Sales Team Training

Most sales outreach fails because it triggers defensive filters before a prospect ever reads past line one. We apply decision science, the study of how people actually make choices, to rewire how your team communicates: rewriting your cold emails, LinkedIn sequences, and follow-up scripts, and teaching the psychology behind every change so your team keeps improving on its own.

About Adam Sharma

Experience that spans the enterprise and the community.

Adam Sharma spent more than a decade at Human-I-T, one of the country's leading digital equity nonprofits, most recently as VP of Strategic Innovation & Partnerships. He built the partnerships, programs, and revenue strategies that took the organization from a startup to a national operation.

Along the way he negotiated with Fortune 500 technology companies, built government programs across ten states, and pioneered circularity and social impact as real business value propositions before they were trendy. He has spoken at 25+ national venues including Net Inclusion, UCLA Anderson, and the LBJ School of Public Affairs, and has contributed to research with BCG, the Benton Institute, and the University of California.

Sharma Impact Partners is a senior practice, not an agency. When you engage the firm, you work directly with Adam from the first call to the final deliverable, with specialists brought in only when the work calls for them.
