Biography
This life changing event caused her to embark on a whole new life, and a career developing the new field of Gender Economics and Diversity Economics. As a result, Susanne developed the Diversity Program Review Framework which measures both a Diversity program’s standalone effectiveness from a program management perspective, and assesses the viability of program’s data for further research in Diversity Economics and as input into organisational profitability and sustainability creating the next generation of Business Transformation.
She now consults to organisations and boards to help them understand the benefits of a balanced gender mix to increase their level of innovation and performance and speaks to groups about the way that economic policy is formed with gender biases that can in turn affect policy decisions and disadvantage gendered groups.
Susanne has proven experience as a Company Director, Executive Manager and Program Management professional in large scale Business Transformation projects across Government, Utilities, Telco, Finance, Insurance, Banking, Education, and Retail. As an experienced Management Consultant, she has extensive experience in negotiating and managing outsourced contracts and transformational change in transitional environments across a range of industries.

I recently attended Susanne’s presentation on Gender Economics and Diversity Economics to the PMI Queensland Chapter. These are clearly topic she is passionate about, as was evident in her enthusiastic and thorough presentation. As western society struggles to achieve balance in relation to diversity (gender, race, creed and sexual preference), Susanne’s research is taking place at the coal face. Identifying the connections between diversity and profit will catapult the diversity debate out the murky waters of morality and into the stratosphere of economic realities. Susanne is an energetic and engaging speaker who knows her topic. I would recommend anyone exploring diversity to hear what she has to contribute to the conversation.

PMIQ Chapter Event
Susanne delivers an informative and thought provoking presentation on a complex and potentially divisive topic. She clearly articulates a very compelling case and engages well with the audience, balancing the seriousness of the argument with well timed moments of levity and humour.

“Uplifting, entertaining and enlightening… Susanne Moore is a high energy presenter who speaks with eloquence and authority on the topics of Gender Diversity, Diversity Economics and Social Policy. Susanne cuts to the core of the issues and enters the debate with a completely fresh and innovative perspective. When chairing the Diversity panel at the 2012 Australasian Sourcing Summit, Susanne sincerely connected with attendees not only with her message, but also the down-to-earth manner in which it was delivered.”

Sample Talks
Gender Economics and Diversity for Organisations
Building frameworks and metrics for gender diversity programs to measure their impact on bottom line profitability. Expanding these metrics to measure the economic input of gender diversity programs.
Gender Economics
In the gender economy, we have reduced portions of the population to passive consumers, making indirect economic input rather than direct input. Stabilising the balance between indirect and direct impact has a role developing our economic future.
The commodifacation of Project Management, Outsouring and Diversity
There are many extremely experienced and highly skilled program and project manage with successful projects behind with excellent management skills and delivery success behind them, but they can't get jobs. Why not? They are considered 'generatists'. What we mean by skills shortage is 'skills as commodities', that is; we have spent so much time over process-tising everything, methodologising things within an inch of their lives and putting too much focus on 'specialisation.
Changing Women
Harness and embrace gender diversity in your organization. Discover ways to shift the traditional paradigms of business and explore positive strategies to attract the best resources. If your organization wants to employ and retain talented women and promote female leadership then Changing Women is for you.
Dealing with the Boys Club
Project management can be affected by the quality of the project manager’s organisation and their management. The integrity of the organisation and its competency affect both project outcomes and the team members involved. Traditional methods of management can incorporate a number of negative influences and one of these is the ‘Boys Club’ mentality and it will have an impact on management decisions.
