A career transition is one of the loneliest things a leader goes through.Â
Â
I am Susa Lang. For over twenty years, I have been on every side of that journey, as a C-suite headhunter, senior executive, and leadership coach.Â
My Experience Serves Your Career Transition.

Knowing how senior appointments are made.
C-SUITE HEADHUNTER
I placed senior leaders in PE-backed companies, family businesses, and professional service firms across Asia and Europe.
You will see what search consultants see.

Knowing what it means to lead at senior level and want what comes next.Â
SENIOR EXECUTIVE
I led as GM and VP across eleven countries in PE-owned companies, with full P&L responsibility.
I have been where you are.Â

Knowing what a senior career transition asks of a leader.
LEADERSHIP COACH
I advised C-suite executives and MDs in high-stakes leadership decisions and identity shifts.
I built this program for you.
The Person Behind What's Next
I am warm by nature and direct by choice. Austrian, if that explains the combination, and shaped by years of living and working internationally.
People fascinate me, especially in a career transition, where I have seen how leaders think, decide, and sometimes get in their own way. And I never stop learning, because the world keeps moving and what worked in one market five years ago may not work today in another.
Everything I have learned went into this Program, for leaders like you.
I would love to have you in it.
