Most of us long for things we’ve lost since we were children: our sense of wonder, our powerful imagination, our willing curiosity. When we listen to children, we remember the promise those gifts hold - for the individual and for the community and for the world. When we listen to our own curiosity, wonder, and imagination, when we rekindle those gifts for ourselves, we make it possible for the children we care for to sustain theirs - and we make the world we want to live in together.
“Working with Susan was a career-changing experience. Having never worked with a coach before, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Susan listened and made suggestions as I worked through professional tangles. Her insight and expertise was spot on and has made a positive impact on me professionally and personally. So much is asked of leaders. Having a listening partner through these trying times has been invaluable.”
— Stacy Penson, Assistant Head Of School and Elementary Level Leader of Teaching and Learning at The Innovative School of Temple Beth Sholom, Miami Beach, FL
