Susan Stewart
Susan Stewart is a recovering stand-up comic turned Organizational Learning and Development Consultant turned author and inspirational speaker. After touring Canada with 3 one-woman shows and performing at comedy clubs for 5 years, Susan decided to quit stand-up comedy (the fame and paparazzi attention just got to be too much) which then led her to working in a Human Resources department in the Ontario Government. Comedy to HR...a natural progression, don't you think? Ahem. It was in the midst of her Human Resources career when Susan became inspired to get back on stage and use her comedic powers for good, rather than evil!
Since leaving her Human Resources career in 2008, Susan has been traveling around North America helping people see the lighter side of the changes and challenges that unfold at work and in life. With her memorable high energy and humour, Susan has shared her uplifting messages with many private and public-sector organizations, school boards, universities, and associations.
Susan is a contributing author of four inspirational books: Awakening The Workplace - Volume 3, The Master Mind Group, Bushido Business, and From The Stage To The Page - Life Lessons From Four Funny Ladies. Susan's first very own book, Reaching The Laugh Resort, is now available.
