The #1 fear in the nation before death and spiders is public speaking!

The more confident you can become driving the full power of your voice in all of life’s situations, the more successful you will be. SPEAK FEAR FREE can be delivered as a keynote, live webinar, or group training and the material in all formats focuses on practical tips to build confidence and get people feeling more comfortable, competent and confident when speaking formally or informally.

Our fears keep us from moving forward and living the lives we dream of. If we give in to our fears, we let them drive us away from where we want to be, and we get locked in place, rendered motionless. SPEAK FEAR FREE is the answer to this all too common problem as it supports participants in learning how to play with their fears instead of letting their fears play with them.

Leadership is a full body experience! This high-energy presentation is delivered as a dynamic keynote or as an interactive multi-hour training.

Leadership Bootcamp has been a featured presentation at such national events as IAAP’s EFAM for 2 years running. This program is a high energy, interactive keynote that will get your participants on their feet trying on the practical side of LEADERSHIP.

It is essential to remember that leadership is not a title. LEADERSHIP is something you embody. It is a consciousness. It is a choice that you make during every interaction that creates connection and inspires movement.

This keynote will leave participants feeling motivated and ready to get even more involved both personally and professionally. This dynamic, fun and highly interactive keynote is A FULL BODY EXPERIENCE!

Women in Leadership – Empower the Leader in YOU is a thought provoking, experiential (aka interactive) session that gives practical tips and techniques to support women to step more fully into their power both personally and professionally. Confidence isn’t something that you have to find, it is something that you have to call from within yourself. The journey of stepping fully into your power depends on four elements: Permission, Participation, Practice and Play. Struggling with your own personal confidence, feelings of insecurity, doubt or fear seem to be a natural part of the leadership journey for any woman. However, it is those women who really learn how to “play” with those insecurities (rather than let the insecurities play with them) that truly have a greater impact in the world. The goal of this session is to allow participants to dig deep as they establish personal definition around their leadership journey as well as to help them to experience a greater level of confidence in all areas of life.

This is a powerful presentation that is a highly motivating and effective keynote to kick off a conference or event that will create connection, energy and to get your participants interacting.  From Group to TEAM is most regularly delivered as a single or multi-day training to shift organizational behavior but can be shortened to meet your conferences specific needs. The format of From Group to TEAM is very flexible while still retaining the power and impact of the material.

When individuals operate from the mindset of “group,” their choices organize around “self-interest.”  When individuals operate from the mindset of “team”, they organize their choices around a “shared interest.”  Group is the default when people come together, while TEAM needs to be earned. Susan’s powerful keynote gives the power back to the individual and shows them a revolutionary new way to generate more TEAM.

Susan’s introduction to Robert’s Rules of Order was one of the most meaningful workshops I’ve ever had the pleasure of participating in. Her mastery of the subject matter was only second to her engaging, substantive, and thought-provoking presentation. I thought she was joking when she promised to make Robert’s Rules personal to me — she was not. I was blown away and would recommend this workshop to anybody who wants to better understand and relate to Robert’s Rules of Order as a tool to build better more high functioning TEAMs.

I wanted to thank Susan Leahy and Group to TEAM Leadership Solutions Inc. for all that you have done for our AETC Command team. I love and appreciate your simple and practical approach. The “Group to Team” concept makes so much sense and was perfect for us here at AETC. While I know we are a difficult group, your training taught us how to shift our conversation to generate more experiences of TEAM. I personally learned how to get my power back. While there are many patterns that we still are caught in, the practices you shared during our training and webinars will support us in improving. I feel like we are doing so much better because of all of your help.

The statement, “Teaching isn’t just talking and learning isn’t just listening.” is not original with me; I could not tell you where I heard it first. But as a teacher for over 30 years or so at all grade levels from elementary to graduate school, I can tell you Susan is not just talking, she teaches! Students are not just listening, they are learning!
