To have impact as a leader you need to be inclusive, influential and inspiring.
And to be that leader you need executive presence.

​Do you want to become a compassionate and courageous leader who can lead your organisation through times of change?

Are you a CFO keen to improve your effectiveness as a leader?
Are you a finance leader looking to take the next step into the C-Suite?
The role of CFO is becoming increasingly challenging in our volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous world. It can be enormously difficult to manage the functional and strategic demands of your role as well as your own well-being and family commitments.

No doubt you have enjoyed great success in your career to date, and now you recognise that something more is required of you to deliver amazing business performance at the next level. The role of a finance leader can be stressful, lonely, and overwhelming with the sheer volume of work required and the strengths which brought you to this point may no longer be effective as you seek to broaden your influence and build the creative capacity in both yourself and your team to cope with increased complexity.

Transformation does not happen overnight, it requires commitment and a genuine desire for change. Coaching with an experienced and accredited executive coach provides a safe on-going learning forum where you will be both challenged and supported. The support of a coach enables you to deal with issues which arise on a real-time basis, whilst strengthening your capabilities.

Technical skills are not the differentiator at the top of organisations; it is the ability to inspire and empower others which will enable you to make a difference. This requires executive presence.

As a former CFO, with many years' experience in the corporate world, and now accredited Executive Coach I am passionate about supporting finance professionals to step into their leadership potential. My coaching is focused on empowering you to become a more authentic, purpose-driven and influential leader.

    • - D, CFO

  • "The initial concern I had was “why pay someone money for something I probably know anyway? What’s the ROI on this? What real difference will this make to my life? How different could this coaching experience be to others I have had? An investment in yourself with Sue provides ‘time out’ in a safe environment where you can rediscover your purpose, your values, your inherent qualities and characteristics. Through the process and associated tools, you will enhance your leadership style; find clarity to unlock your aspirations; and build a vision of your future."

    • - Matt, Asia Pacific Regional CFO

  • "I actually feel like it helped me become a calmer person. So I can have a bit of a temper, I can be a firey person, I've got quite a A-type personality. Working in very A-type personality business with very confident people at the table. But I've discovered it doesn't always help to be the loudest person at the table. So, I actually feel like I have approached a few things in a calmer manner and had a, I feel, better outcome for myself."

    • - Leanne, CFO talking about the CFO Women's Circle

  • "If you’re thinking of working with Sue, I highly recommend you sit down with her for a coffee and pretty soon you’ll realise that she truly understands what it’s like to be in your position. If you think you don’t have time, you can’t afford it or it won’t make much difference, then please think again, the benefits of working with Sue are greater than you can ever imagine. Sue will guide you through your challenges and help you seize opportunities that you never believed were possible. Sue is great at understanding the people she works with, and adapts her style to the specific needs of the person she is working with. Invest in yourself, figure out what you want to achieve, and partner with Sue Rosen to help you get there."
