What is coaching really?

It is partnering with clients in a thought-provoking and creative process that inspires them to maximize their personal and professional potential.

Our “why” is driven by the belief that when we consciously choose the person we wish to be, it is a choice that reflects the highest vision of our self. In so doing, we are able to align all that we say, do and believe with our core values and our North Star.

Kind Words

Jordan Steffler "Susan delivered a 4-part virtual leadership training series (one module a week for a month) for the Region that was highly engaging. The sessions were a great balance of content sharing, engagement, and learning from the collective experiences of the group members. Susan provided tips and resources that participants were able to immediately implement in between each of the sessions, and then build upon at the next module. The training series offered practical insights, regardless of industry or sector, that attendees can apply to their leadership development journey. Susan is a knowledgeable and seasoned leadership trainer who creates a caring and thoughtful learning environment, and is willing to carry on conversations offline to help individual participants get the most out of their experience."

Jordan Steffler, Human Resources Business Partner, Region of Waterloo Human Resources & Citizen Service Anne Kircos "Susan Cranston provided our organization with a four-session customized Leadership - Management training course focused on the art of listening and feedback, fostering emotional intelligence, and then a deep dive into what it takes to be a great leader. She was an excellent instructor, keeping our senior leadership team engaged and explaining the concepts in an applicable manner. The sessions encouraged our management team to establish greater relationships across departments, helping reinforce the concept of cross-functional collaboration and support. The training brought some renewed energy to our management group and was a much needed change in focus after weathering the challenges of leading through the height of the pandemic."

 Lucie Zettel "Susan has to be one of the best coaches I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. Her skillset is far beyond that of other coaches. I think one of her unique gifts is her ability to be quiet and really listen. She never interrupts, she pauses to absorb what I say, and she would even pick up on what I did not say. She is a very clever and intuitive coach who knows what she’s doing. One of many things I love about Susan is that she is continually improving her skills by taking advanced training that I’ve never seen other coaches do. She is remarkable. Working with Susan has brought me some clarity about how to proceed in my own career as an entrepreneur. She inspires me, and I would highly recommend Susan as a leadership and personal coach."

Transformational Coach
 Michelle Lyne "Working with Susan has been absolutely transformational. I connected with her for support in transitioning careers. While I have successfully done that, I’ve also grown in so many other areas in my life. She has provided support to keep me moving toward my goals, has challenged me when I was holding back, and mirrored confidence whenever I was feeling anxious about stepping forward. Susan’s welcoming presence created a safe space in which I was able to take time to gain more self-awareness. I feel equipped with new tools and frameworks to apply when tackling any new situations as they may arise."
