Grow. Improve. Succeed.
Be the corporate leader you always imagined you’d be and impress the hell out of your CEO.
I’M SUSAN GORDON BARKER, EXECUTIVE COACH
I help corporate leaders succeed in their business goals and in the way they think about how to connect that to their purpose.
Anyone who knows me will tell you that I have a deep passion for leadership development, diversity, and coaching. I am fortunate that I get to work with people in this space for a living, but it is also a part of who I am. I will work with you to dig into where you currently are and where you might want to go. A successful career transition does not happen by accident. It is both an art and a balancing act that requires creativity, an honest inward examination, and a strategy. We will do this together.
My approach isn’t that of a traditional coach, but I have successfully worked with people at every stage of their careers. In order to be effective for you, together we must establish a positive, constructive relationship that provides a framework for assessment, learning, and change. We will get to know one another well. I will provide homework and accountability to aid you in getting you out of your own way. My approach is direct and collaborative. If you are willing to do the work, I will assist you every step of the way. If that sounds like a fit for you, let’s have a conversation.

Through her mentoring and coaching, I see a dedicated leader, friend, and coach who deeply cares for the human person and society. She is a real gem!
