Susan Chu is an executive coach, board advisor, and author of Own Your Next Move: A Bold Guide to Career Transitions, Executive Presence, and Leadership Impact. She draws on two decades of senior leadership experience at DuPont, Booz Allen, and Advance Publications, where she led transformations in M&A, organizational restructuring, and talent strategy across the U.S., Europe, and Asia. Today, Susan partners with mid- to senior-level leaders to strengthen executive presence, sharpen their leadership narrative, and position themselves for their next bold move. Her approach is bold yet supportive—challenging leaders to stop working harder and start leading with clarity and influence.

Susan is passionate about helping leaders own their story, command the room authentically, and create impact that lasts.
