Susan can work with you to plan  time away for your leadership team that will yield valuable insights and productive results.   Whether you are looking for a facilitator to help the team problem-solve,  make a decision, or simply want  to expose  your team for a few hours to new thought leadership  in the areas of leading organizational change, strategic thinking , or cultural development, Susan can help make your agenda interactive and insightful.  

Agile product development is commonly used in IT for software development, but what about the rest of us?  This topic is perfect for executives  or leaders of any size company or a team who want a more flexible way to successfully reach  their goals than traditional methods.   This is a field-tested tool on its 16th iteration that is easy to use and delivers results.  An option is to pair the tool with a  learning style assessment that will engage the team in using their strengths to attain  goals in a more agile way.  It can be used for individual, department or company-wide goal attainment. 

This topic is perfect for executives who recently completed an  M&A and need a  strategy for cultural integration, or for leaders planning a large  transformation.    Gain tips to create business value while integrating cultures.   An altered version is offered for leaders at any level who want to inspire their teams.   

In this executive overview, we explore and deconstruct assumptions with our peers about the transformation we are strategizing.   We will use tools and frameworks to assess our strengths and liabilities for the upcoming transformation to avoid pitfalls upfront and gain traction toward success.

VUCA stands for Volatile, Uncertain, Complex and Ambiguous. Learn the three strategies your organization needs in the environment in which we find ourselves.   With generative AI, supply chain issues, and cybersecurity concerns,  just to name a few examples, these three competencies are critical for your organization, your board, your C-Suite, and every level of employee to understand and begin exercising a “resilience muscle” to not only survive but thrive. 

SWOT has been a time-tested tool for business strategy.  The days of three to five year strategic plans are becoming irrelevant, given the volatile environment we live in today.    This facilitated session yields insights relevant to each quadrant of S-W-O-T, but reveals blind spots that would most likely be missed otherwise.  

In this workshop, you will gain important context of our current times, and use three simple but thought-provoking tools to help you prioritize in shifting times.   These tools will help you  make better decisions and provide you a 30%  increase in likelihood that you will reach your goals.
