I’m passionate about helping you maintain calm and thrive
Meet Suzie
In today’s fast-paced environment, effective leadership requires more than experience—it demands a deep understanding of complexity, the ability to navigate uncertainty, and the resilience to turn challenges into opportunities.
I understand what is needed for this transformation.
With over two decades of experience across government, corporate, non-profit, and academic sectors, both in Australia and internationally, I bring unparalleled strategic insight. My roles as a senior leader in government and a lawyer in top-tier corporations have equipped me to manage change and risk with precision.
I am not just a leadership expert and coach —I’m a catalyst for change. I empower leaders to adapt with agility, remaining proactive and resilient in the face of uncertainty. My focus on long-term organisational resilience is informed by both my professional experience and personal strength, instilling confidence in others to face any challenge.
My coaching programs and workshops equip leaders with the tools to maintain stability amidst chaos, manage uncertainty, and leverage disruption for growth. Under my guidance, leaders and teams move from merely surviving to thriving.
Partner with me to elevate your leadership, embrace the future with confidence, and achieve lasting success.
“I was impressed at the level of detail Suzie thoughtfully presented in an easy to understand way. The ‘Pivot When Needed’ exercise was so interesting and beneficial. Suzie understands the real world challenges facing business owners and has the ability to make you see yourself in a new light.”
Dianne Palmer, Interior Designer
“What I love most about Suzie is her focused execution. She is a shining example of getting clear on her goal, focusing one foot in front of the other and prioritising what matters. She walks her talk in her message of adaptive stability.
Her skills are so critical for the complex landscape leaders find themselves in today.”
Jane Anderson, Strategic Communications Expert
"Suzie’s empathetic and supportive training ensured that her messages got through – and were understood and accepted. And more importantly, her messages continued to resonate into my out-of-workshop life, and have been implemented and had the positive outcomes sought. And continue to do so.
As a result, I strongly recommend attending Suzie’s workshops, and working with her adaptive stability model, as that can markedly strengthen your own personal resilience and capacity to overcome what, otherwise, would be setbacks.”
Philip Derham, Director, Derham Insights Research
“Th[e workshop] was an engaging and inspiring session. Suzie included an excellent quality slide deck, practical exercises, logical discussion points, relevant exercises and succinct and supportive feedback.
The safe environment generated fascinating insights from all participants. Highly recommend!”
Sue Ellson, Independent LinkedIn Specialist
“Suzie was a very attentive host...She was very emotionally engaged all the time, and made me comfortable and willing to share about myself, as well as try challenging and even embarrassing tasks.
The fact that she stayed present throughout the entire 4 hours, for each of the sessions, inspired a lot of trust and admiration in me towards her.”
