“ Susan is a remarkably gifted communicator who thinks deeply and writes powerfully about practices that help staff teams and congregations thrive. Her work among us will bear good fruit for a long time to come.” – Chris Henry, Senior Pastor (Second Presbyterian Church, Indianapolis)

There are moments in the life of every congregation when leaders feel stuck and could benefit from the perspective of an outside voice:

• You can’t gain clarity or commitment about the next chapter of ministry.
• Staff is working at full capacity, but can’t keep up.
• Staff members work in silos with little collaboration.
• Lay leadership has abandoned its responsibility for ministry.
• The congregation experiences growth spurts, followed by decline.
• Key leaders are approaching retirement age with no succession plan.
• Leaders keep solving the same problems that don’t stay fixed.
• Leaders don’t know how to move from decision making to discernment.
