As the leader of Deloitte’s integrated brand, marketing, and communications organization, Suzanne challenges her team to push the bounds of creativity and collaboration in pursuit of two intertwined goals: loyal clients and healthy business growth.
Suzanne’s current priorities include modernizing the marketing organization, strengthening the intersections between marketing and sales, and activating Deloitte’s brand in the market in bold and memorable ways.
