Conferences & Key Notes

“Suzie was a hit at our annual CSES conference in May 2025. As the opening keynote, she set the tone for a positive approach to leadership during challenging times. Sharing her experience of creating a coaching culture of continuous improvement, she demonstrated her own success leading and supporting teams effectively in the social service and employment services sectors. Her relatable insights encouraged us to challenge our traditional methods and experience the benefits of improved relationships, workplace wellness and overall performance. We definitely plan to have Suzie back!”

“Suzie presented at our Professional Learning Day Conference in June 2025 for our childcare sector. Her ability to engage audiences, transfer knowledge, and provide tangible ideas and concepts is astounding! We received 100% positive feedback from Suzie’s presentations. Our childcare sector has already asked for her to come back and present again.”

“Suzie Johnson-Smith was an opening keynote speaker for us in June 2025 for two Service Provider Expos.  Her topic was Bringing your best self to Human Service Delivery.  Suzie set a positive, collaborative tone for the rest of our events.  Many attendees grabbed her business card so they could connect with her for project proposals of their own. Simcoe Muskoka Skillforce received many excellent and positive comments about her talk. One attendee gave the following feedback: ‘The keynote speaker was a fantastic addition and offered meaningful insight that left me with new ideas and perspectives I’ll carry forward in my work.’“
