Praise for Sue

More Happy Shares

Sue is a gifted coach who listens deeply. What started as a career-focused coaching relationship to help me reset my objectives became an opportunity to reconnect with my whole self. Having worked with other coaches that sometimes latched onto a comment, leading our session down an unsatisfying rabbit hole, I found Sue’s wholistic approach, thoughtful preparation, and insightful observation the right balance of professional and intensely personal. This resulted in sessions that may not have covered what I wanted to discuss and ended up being what I needed to discuss (and hear and feel). Along the journey, Sue was a stalwart guide there to:
Remind me how far my journey had progressed when I felt like I was standing still;
guide me back when so many aspects of life were pulling In different directions, and
celebrate when I reached my desired “destination.”
If you are looking for a coach that understands both what’s needed to succeed in the boardroom and in life, I cannot recommend Sue more wholeheartedly.

Carol, VP, Fortune 500 Healthcare Company, NYC

I met Sue as a graduate student at MIT. At the time, I was switching careers and needed to think through the transition carefully and make my next move count. As my career advisor, Sue helped me navigate the entire job-search process: from finding out what I really wanted out of my career to thoughtful resume reviews, mock interviews and in-depth assistance evaluating job offers. Sue’s approach was holistic and tailored, and emphasized choosing the right career in the context of personal life objectives. Once I started getting job interviews, Sue personally researched the companies I was applying for and prepared realistic mock interviews. And when the offers started coming in, she took a thorough look at them and gave advice for assessing and negotiating the terms, including salary and non-compete aspects. I am glad that Sue’s decided to focus her time on what she does best: combining her understanding of people with her expert counseling skills. As an immigrant who’s persevered, attended and worked at some of the most prestigious institutions (Wellesley, Harvard, MIT, Dartmouth), Sue has a wealth of experience to draw from and knows the paths to success inside out- but also knows what truly matters. As for me, I am two years into the job that I accepted while at MIT. I still turn to Sue for advice navigating the workplace and improving my effectiveness (relationships with colleagues, managers, lateral moves within the company, etc), and have no doubt I will consult with her again as I advance in my career.

After 3 months coaching with Sue, I got promoted within my current organization as a people manager and have clear career goals defined. I’m more self-aware. My confidence grew, I know I need to keep nourishing myself + have the tools to do so.

As a middle aged professional I was thinking about a career change. Sue never pushed hard, instead she helped me to focus on my own strengths and listen to my inner voice. Ultimately, we are responsible for our own path forward. Sue helped me to reconnect with my greatest passions and strengths.
