“I met Susan during a challenging time for my business. I had made an acquisition 6 months prior and was just starting to realize it was a big mistake. I was struggling with culture clash in the organization, runaway costs, and a crisis of confidence. Susan’s guidance was invaluable and she acted as equal parts, coach, counselor, and friend. Through our work together, I was able to get focused on our best prospects for growth, make a number of difficult but important decisions, and get things back on track. Within months, our growth re-started and within 3 years our business had tripled in size and I had completed a successful exit. I took a village to make it happen, but Susan was integral in helping me pivot and get the recovery started.”

“In the midst of growth and transition, we asked Susan to work with our team to help everyone get focused and equipped for anticipated growth. The session Susan led immediately set the stage for honest and open conversation. As a result, the team identified ways to collaborate and work together more effectively. We look forward to continuing our relationship with Susan as we further develop the organization. I highly recommend Susan Katz Advantage for any business development and coaching needs.”

—Barbara Reed-DiGia, Resources & Operations Director, Maryland New Directions

“Rachel and I found your thoughtful advice and guidance invaluable regarding our business. We have not only gained confidence and clarity but also have specific actions and tools that we can easily implement to propel the business forward.”

“When I decided to seek coaching I was looking for a way to enhance my focus on what was really important, both personally and professionally. I found Susan to be effective at listening to me and using her experience and empathic perspective to guide our conversation to conclusions  and actions that were natural and easy for me to deploy. Within a few sessions I had a clearer direction on what really mattered to my life and how I could be successful. I find myself more present, satisfied and productive every day. Great for my career and my family.”

—Kimberly J. Min, Partner, Whiteford, Taylor & Preston LLP

“When we first discussed coaching with Susan we were skeptical about what we could gain from the coaching process. After participating in the first session of the coaching program we quickly saw the advantages of learning how to be more strategically focused, something that helped us transform our business and our lives. Since starting our work with Susan, the business has grown from one employee to seven employees and $10M in revenue.”

“Connecting with Susan Katz has been the most rewarding experience for my professional career, and ultimately my personal life! When I first started working with Susan, I was extremely skeptical of the process and the potential outcomes, but I was knee deep in analysis paralysis and needed a lifejacket – stat! Susan has been that voice of reason and support, a confidant who has not only helped me identify the baseline questions and their solutions, but then has also provided the connections and ideas to help me grow and succeed.

Through Susan’s group coaching, I learned achievable techniques to streamline my workload and better manage my team. These improvements then allowed me to spend more time completing my own projects, and ultimately, this meant I had the energy in the evenings and weekends to pursue things other than work! I would encourage anyone who is looking to improve their business or professional trajectory to reach out to Susan, and let her supportive and insightful demeanor guide them through the process!”

“Susan has been my teacher, coach, and confidant since early 2012. She’s personable and caring, has a wealth of knowledge, an unending supply of sound advice, a genuinely positive outlook, and an inimitable knack for cutting through the clutter and keeping me on the path for success. I always come away from our meetings feeling energized, more focused, and ready to take on new challenges.”
