You've built your expertise, delivered results and earned the respect of clients and colleagues.
So why does it still feel like you're waiting?
Maybe you tell yourself you need more experience. That the right opportunity will come. That if you just keep delivering, someone will notice.
Deep down, you know: What got you here won't get you to Partner!
To secure your seat at the table, you need to:
Lead with authority: Inspire confidence, engage your team and navigate firm dynamics with ease.
Be visible and influential: Position yourself as indispensable to the firm's future.
Think Strategically: Shift from solely 'doing the work' to building a thriving practice
Without these, you risk staying stuck – doing more, giving more but still overlooked when it matters most.
Stop waiting! Take the next step ...

I took my entire team to Suzanne's workshop and coaching.
She was a fantastic presenter with just the right amount of delicate empathy,
blunt vulnerability and a terrific sense of humour.
She has inspired and encouraged thinking around topics that usually are not easily addressed or
discussed in a work-related setting.
Suzanne encouraged courageous leadership on a whole new level.
My team kept the conversation going after the workshop and it even resulted
in a new working group to implement our key takeaways.
These questions from Program Clients may answer some of your own questions
Many professionals choose to invest in themselves because they don't want to wait for permission. Your career is your responsibility and opportunity. This program gives you the skills to move forward regardless of firm politics and policies.
Yes. Modules are released fortnightly and take just 2–3 hours to work through and apply to your career, team, or Practice Area. In between, we hold a 90-minute group coaching session to put learning into practice. A small time commitment for the opportunity to prepare yourself for Partnership.
You'll gain skills in Self-awareness, Management, Leadership, Influence and Business Acumen that apply no matter what your next step is. If you do decide on Partnership, you'll already be ahead of the curve.
Mindset is the foundation of this program. It underpins 85% of success in leadership, business growth, and career progression. Without it, management skills, engagement, strategy, and branding don’t stick. If you’re not open to mindset work, this program isn’t the right fit. This focus on mindset is what makes the program unique – and it's the reason our clients achieve such strong results.
Suzanne’s program was invaluable. She understands the challenges business leaders face
and teaches the capabilities needed to step into senior roles. Her coaching built my confidence
and self-awareness. Her authenticity and lived experience made every session impactful.
I’ve gained insights I’m already applying in my career with positive results.
