Suzanne Frindt's clients and audiences view her as a unique fusion of passion and skill, with the ability to actively listen, comprehend and connect with individuals and groups.
As co-founder and Principal of 2130 Partners, she is a recognized speaker on the topics of Accelerate Your Leadership and Productive Interactions, addressing various organizations around the world. As a Professional Member of the National Speakers Association Suzanne is a popular speaker on women-in-business issues. She has addressed women in such diverse environments as indigenous women leaders in Peru, college students in China, and women entrepreneurs in the Middle East. The U.S. State Department tapped Suzanne to address the 2006 Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Businesswomens Summit in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E. In March 2007, she was named one of 20 Top Women to Watch by Churm Media, and was featured in the March 15 cover story in OC Metro Magazine. In 2009 she was asked to co-create and teach curriculum for The World Academy for the Future of Women at the SIAS International University in China.
In July 2010 Suzannes book, Accelerate: High Leverage Leadership for Todays World, was published. She co-authored Accelerate with her husband and business partner, Dwight Frindt. Accelerate is not a theoretical book on leadership, but rather a practical resource for leaders to refer to when faced with the very real and daily challenges of managing their teams and their businesses. This book is the result of 20 years in the trenches with leaders helping them work through their issues and take their businesses to new levels of success and satisfaction.
Since 2003 Suzanne has researched, designed, developed and led a powerful leadership curriculum called Productive Interactions. This breakthrough program constructively disrupts participants beliefs, habits and practices in the way they communicate. In 2009 a special one day intensive version of Productive Interactions debuted with great success and is now conducted on a regular basis.
In addition, Suzanne serves as a Group Chair for Vistage International, a professional organization dedicated to increasing the effectiveness and enhancing the lives of chief executives. Vistage and its affiliates have more than 15,000+ members in 15 countries, making it the worlds leading CEO membership organization. Each month she facilitates groups in Orange County that include company presidents, entrepreneurs and key executives.
As a board member, Suzanne regularly contributes entrepreneurial creativity and management experience to both profit and not-for-profit companies and organizations, including Thoro Packaging and Managease.
Prior to founding 2130 Partners, Suzanne was a founding Principal of Communities Unlimited, a satisfaction research firm. In her pre-entrepreneur days, she held leadership positions with a variety of companies in operations, human resources, marketing and sales.
She and her husband, Dwight, have been investors and activists for The Hunger Project for over 20 years. In the last few years, The Pachamama Alliance, Chirapaq, and the FeelGood organizations have become additional investment and support interests for Suzanne. She is certified to lead, Awakening the Dreamer: Changing the Dream Symposium for The Pachamama Alliance and has been involved in leadership development programs in partnership with Chirapaq and FeelGood, training young leaders in a new paradigm of leadership.
Suzanne has an MBA from the University of California, Irvine, and has a deep personal commitment to ongoing growth development in a broad range of disciplines.
