Bio
Allan Freedman
Susan has the rare quality of insightful analyst, outstanding fundraising professional, and exemplary leader. In my role as executive director of a non-profit, she provided guidance that truly added value for the organization and sage advice that added even greater value to my leadership of the organization. She is an asset to any organization that has the wisdom to collaborate with her and put to work her many talents.
Cynthia Steele
Susan brings the best of many worlds: hard-won knowledge and experience on strategies that work as well as a willingness to roll up her sleeves and dive into making concrete things happen. She's a great thought partner to evolve fundraising. She has a high degree of executive function, and an uncommon ability to seamlessly mesh with staff and other projects, giving credit, mentoring and not overstepping boundaries. Her interpersonal skills, personal warmth, thoughtfulness and charm make her a pleasure to work with AND a deft interlocutor with major donors and Boards. I highly recommend her and would happily work with her again.
