My colleague and I spoke to Susan for the first time last night. She offered very constructive criticism which opened out eyes to a number of issues within our organization. Her passion for her work is undeniable and her vast experience is evident in her ability to quickly analyze situations and articulate the steps necessary to attain success. This was one of the most productive encounters we have had thus far in the nonprofit realm.
