Some people call me Susan. Some people call me Sue.

But if you own a business or lead a team, I’d rather you call me before that tricky employee situation turns into a much bigger one. 😉

The performance issue you’ve been putting off.
The manager who isn’t really managing.
The employee you’ve given chance after chance.
The conversation you’ve rehearsed in your head but still haven’t had.
The people decision that has you wondering, “Am I even handling this the right way?”

These situations are part of leading people, but figuring them out alone doesn’t have to be.

That’s exactly why I created the People Power Masterclass.

Over the next three months, we’re going to work on the real people situations business owners and leaders face every day—and give you the knowledge, tools, and confidence to handle them.

Because the goal isn’t for you to call me every time something happens.

The goal is for you to learn what to do when it does. 🌱

And today is your LAST CHANCE to join us!!

⏰ Registration closes TONIGHT at midnight.
🚀 We start tomorrow, September 4.

Ready to stop Googling, second-guessing, and hoping you’re handling it right?

There’s a sentence I hear from business owners all the time:
“I just don’t know if I’m handling this right.”

The employee who isn’t performing.
The manager who isn’t really managing.
The conversation you know you need to have.
The person you’ve given chance after chance.
The hiring decision you’re terrified of getting wrong again.
The feeling that somehow, no matter how much your business grows, everything still comes back to you.

Here’s what I want you to know:
You weren’t supposed to magically know how to do all of this.

Leading people is a skill.
Holding people accountable is a skill.
Having difficult conversations is a skill.
Building managers who can lead without bringing everything back to you is a skill.

And skills can be learned.

That’s why I created the People Power Masterclass.

Our next cohort starts this Friday, and registration closes tomorrow at midnight.

If you’ve been watching these posts and thinking, “I probably need this…” this is your invitation to stop thinking about it and find out.

🌱 Comment MASTERCLASS and I’ll send you the details.

Or if you’d rather talk first, send me a DM or book a complimentary 15-minute call with me through the link in my bio. I opened up additional times today and tomorrow.

Bring me the thing you’re trying to figure out. We’ll start there.

Sounds pretty good, right?

But here’s the question: What has to change between now and then to make that your reality?

Because if you keep solving the same problems, stepping in every time something goes wrong, and putting off the conversations you know you need to have… a year from now might look a lot like today.

You can’t grow what you can’t stabilize.

At some point, you—or the key leaders beside you—have to learn how to lead differently so everything doesn’t keep coming back to you.

2027 is coming either way.
Your business can look the same.
Or you can start doing the work now to make sure it doesn’t. 🌱

The People Power Masterclass starts this Friday.

You didn’t start your business because you dreamed of managing performance issues, navigating employee conflict, figuring out what you can and can’t say, or wondering whether you’re handling a people situation the “right” way.

But somewhere along the way, you hired people.
And suddenly, all of that became part of your job.

Here’s the thing: you don’t need to become an HR professional to be a great employer.

But you do need to understand the fundamentals.

You need to know how to set expectations people can actually follow.
How to hold someone accountable without waiting until you’re completely frustrated.
How to have the conversation you’ve been avoiding. How to hire more intentionally.
And how to make people decisions without second-guessing yourself for the next three days.

Those are skills. And skills can be learned.

That’s what we’re doing inside the People Power Masterclass.

In this accelerated cohort we’ll meet weekly for three months to take the people challenges you’re already dealing with and give you the knowledge, practical tools, coaching, and confidence to handle them differently.

Because 2027 is coming either way.

You can enter it dealing with the same people problems in the same ways…
or you can spend the next three months learning how to lead differently.

Enrollment is open through September 3, while seats remain. 🌱

What would change in your business if the “people stuff” wasn’t taking up so much of your time and energy?

Maybe you could actually take a few days off without wondering what’s falling apart.

Maybe your managers would solve problems without bringing every decision back to you.

Maybe you’d address performance issues BEFORE you reached your breaking point.

Maybe you’d make a people decision and actually feel confident about it.

And maybe you’d finally have more time to think about growing your business instead of constantly managing employee problems.

That’s what getting the people side of your business right can create.

Not perfection. Not a workplace where problems never happen.

Clarity. Confidence. Systems. And a team that doesn’t need you in the middle of everything.

That’s exactly what we’re building inside the People Power Masterclass. 🌱

Our accelerated 3-month cohort meets weekly from September through November, giving you the tools, coaching, and support to start making real changes before the end of the year.

Enrollment is officially OPEN! 🎉

It’s official! 🎉

Enrollment for the People Power Masterclass is OPEN!

This special accelerated cohort is about making the next three months count—so you can head into 2027 feeling more confident in the way you lead your people and your business.

From September through November, we’ll meet weekly to tackle the real challenges that come with leading a team:

🌱 Hiring the right people
🌱 Setting clear expectations
🌱 Creating accountability
🌱 Navigating difficult conversations
🌱 Delegating effectively
🌱 And all the “people stuff” that somehow keeps landing on your desk

You don’t need to become an HR expert.

You need the confidence, practical tools, and support to lead your people well.

And if you’re ready to jump in, I have a little something extra for you… 👀

🎁 Enroll within the first 72 hours and you’ll receive a complimentary 30-minute 1:1 coaching call with me!

Three months can change a lot.

Let’s make sure you’re not walking into 2027 with the same people problems you’re dealing with today.

Last week I soaked up the last little bit of summer before school and hockey season start back up. ☀️🌊

And yes... I still worked a little while I was away.

The irony isn’t lost on me. 😉

I spend a lot of time talking to business owners about building teams and systems that allow the business to operate without everything depending on them.

And I’m still working on it, too.

Because there’s a big difference between KNOWING you should delegate and actually letting go.

Between having a team and trusting them to make decisions without you.

Between taking a vacation and actually being ON vacation.

That’s one of the reasons I’m so passionate about this work. Leadership isn’t something you master and check off the list.

We’re all continually learning how to lead better.

And inside the People Power Masterclass, that’s exactly what we do. We work on the practical skills and systems that help us build stronger teams and businesses that rely a little less on us being involved in everything.

Here’s to making that OOO message a little more accurate next time. 😉

“Are you a team player?”

“Do you work well under pressure?”

“Are you a good communicator?”

There’s one problem with questions like these:

The candidate knows exactly how you want them to answer.😉

If you want to make better hiring decisions, stop asking candidates to tell you who they think they are.

Ask them to show you who they’ve actually been.

Behavior-based questions get candidates talking about real situations, real decisions, and real outcomes…and those answers can tell you a lot more about the person sitting across from you.

Hiring is one of the practical systems we work on inside the People Power Masterclass, because building a strong team starts with getting the right people in the right seats.
