Suzan Haenen

consultant who connects strategy and implementation

I help leaders and their teams create focus and align their people and (improvement) initiatives and projects around a clear operational plan directly linked to their strategy. With shared and supported goals and clear priorities. This requires making choices. Creating focus. And that's where I can help you. 

Together, we'll enhance your organization's execution power, ensuring you get the right things done the right way. This includes a simple leader execution diagnostic, interactive workshops/offsites, practical training, and pragmatic implementation programs.

Your strategy is in place. Everyone's super busy. But... Focus is lacking, and real results are still lacking.

Recognizable?

Your strategy is stuck in beautiful slides, but it doesn't come to life in practice. There's no clear focus, and what's started doesn't reach the finish line. Ownership? Not really clear. And you? You're still far too deeply involved in the operation, when you should actually be providing overview and direction.

Let me, Suzan, think along with you. Not a classic consultant who stands on the sidelines, but a sparring partner who walks alongside you. Someone who puts their finger on the sore spot and brings structure and energy. Through my pragmatic and committed approach, we will gain insight together into what is needed in your organization. Together with your entire team. Without unnecessary fuss. 

Do you recognize this?

  • You do a lot, but achieve little: focus is lacking
  • Strategy remains on paper, without concrete actions
  • Ownership is lacking: everyone looks at each other
  • Projects lose energy: they lose momentum
  • No overview, no progress: everything is mixed up
  • You as a leader do too much yourself: there is no room to lead

Testimonials

Gets teams moving quickly and holds up a mirror

Suzan immediately introduced structure during our first workshop. She did so in a very natural and energetic way. What we achieved with her in that one session was unattainable in the past, even with a whole group of consultants present for just a few weeks. We were able to get started on the roadmap right away. Suzan truly held up a mirror to us as MT, helping us take ownership. Decision-making was faster, and collaboration improved noticeably. I learned a great deal from her and her practical approach.

Operations Director

I know very few people as powerful, committed and energetic as Suzan.

She's always willing to demonstrate leadership in her field. Her project and program management expertise is excellent, and she's incredibly results-oriented. But it doesn't stop there.
Suzan takes ownership and holds others accountable in a very pleasant and respectful way. She always makes herself available when people need her and contributes well beyond her remit. I was really stuck with my team, and her role was crucial in finally getting things moving and connected.

General manager

Suzan brings a lot of energy, positive and “can-do” mentality

Someone who truly gets things moving. After her help developing our transformation program, we saw real results. Her project management training was crucial in this. Her energy is truly endless. It's a joy to work with, almost contagious!
