It takes more than internal expertise to navigate challenges and capitalize on opportunities—a trusted advisor is essential. My expertise includes executive coaching, leadership development, strategic planning, and facilitation. I understand the importance of objective support in achieving professional success.
You’re not alone. Many leaders face similar challenges, but the key lies in unlocking your own potential and finding clarity in your approach.
Seeking external expertise or hiring a neutral consultant can bring fresh perspectives and ensure objectivity throughout the planning process.
I’ll help you find the specific obstacles that are hindering your progress. I will help you solve problems, boost your confidence, and achieve results through deep listening, powerful questioning, and thoughtful planning.
I offer tailored solutions to provide your team with the necessary skills, knowledge, and tools for you to maximize performance and profitability. Every leader and organization has its own goals and needs, so I don’t have a one-size-fits-all approach; the tools and techniques utilized will vary depending on what challenges you want to address, goals you want to meet, or insights I find in our consultations or assessments.
Executive Coaching: Uplevel your leadership abilities, decision-making skills, and strategic growth planning with tailored one-on-one guidance.
EQ Assessment: Improve self-awareness and interpersonal relationships by comprehensively evaluating your or your team member’s emotional intelligence.
Business Diagnostics: I provide businesses with insight into their operations, strategies, and overall health using various tools. To optimize performance and drive growth, I conduct comprehensive assessments and analyses.
Change Management Consulting: I help businesses engage stakeholders, overcome resistance, accelerate implementation, and keep their team aligned with evolving goals.
Operations Consulting: Streamline your daily operations for peak efficiency, optimizing processes to ensure your business runs smoothly and effectively.
Facilitation: I can meet your organization’s strategic needs through tailored capability-building programs and meeting facilitation. My approach is collaborative and ensures everyone’s voice is heard.
My customized approach empowers leaders as collaborators, mentors, and advocates that meets them at their current stage of growth and evolution. Through our initial conversations, we identify key areas for growth, such as communication, conflict resolution, emotional intelligence, confidence, and adaptability. In personalized coaching sessions, I provide a safe and unbiased environment for leaders to explore diverse leadership styles and leverage proven tools and techniques. Together, we cultivate their existing skills and strengths, facilitating their evolution into more effective and impactful leaders.
Using advanced business diagnostic tools, I will bring a fresh perspective and expertise to your most important business goals. I develop custom recommendations based on a comprehensive analysis of your challenges and objectives. These recommendations encompass various areas such as business management, marketing strategies, supply chain optimization, and initiatives to enhance employee morale and productivity.
Working with you and your team, I will map your path to success with a clear strategy, identifying goals, and creating a roadmap to achieve them confidently. I will provide valuable, unbiased insights that will assist you in making informed decisions and navigating the complexities of your organizational environment without losing sight of the bigger picture.
Working with Sue was an incredibly valuable experience. She was able to skillfully guide our conversations to uncover tangible leadership strategies that I’m already applying with my team. The coaching process was surprisingly not cheesy – it maintained a practical focus without getting too caught up in emotions. I would highly recommend Sue’s coaching to any leader looking to strengthen their skills and better support their people.
Sue took our volunteer board through an important strategic planning session during a pivotal time in our organization. The session was thoughtfully guided and paced, and by the end of the day we had arrived at a much more coherent organizational identity and set of priorities to guide our efforts over the coming couple of years.
We recently worked with Sue to help facilitate a strategic planning workshop for our non-profit. Sue provided excellent context and clear instructions and was a positive guiding force, ensuring we were meeting our objectives in developing a new strategic plan and keeping to timelines for the different discussion topics. Sue also provided valuable insight into developing KPIs and selecting appropriate goals to help move our strategy forward.
I really liked that you helped me walk through my “roadblocks” with guiding questions, and never really giving me the answer. By guiding me, I was able to come to the conclusion on my own. Also you were able to provide different tools and resources that I found to be very useful and continue to use regularly. You assisted me in understanding my “road blocks” and how to move around them.
The most significant impact for me was being guided to really look at my patterns of struggle and doubt analytically and find ways to change my detrimental subconscious habits. My favourite part of the coaching experience was how effective it was while maintaining a casual and organic sort of feel, rather than a dry textbook type of program.
Sue provided the space needed to help me identify how I can build a work life I love. Her listening skills and prompts help me define my own narrative and what it means to be accountable to myself. I looked forward to our check-ins – they were a chance to focus on me and constructively reflect on how I want to show up in the world.
