Passionate about empowering young women entering the industry, Susan advises: “Stay curious, embrace learning, and be open to new opportunities. I also wish someone had told me earlier that leadership can sometimes feel lonely—and that it’s okay to be vulnerable. We all fail at times, but how we rise from those moments shapes who we become. I’ve learned to lean on my allies, foster support, and lead with humility.”

Despite the progress made in recent years, Susan is acutely aware of the challenges women face in accessing C-suite roles. “While progress has been made, these positions still feel heavily guarded, and women remain underrepresented. There’s also a double standard—women leaders are often juggling family responsibilities, yet that’s sometimes seen as a weakness rather than a strength. Additionally, not all women in leadership uplift others, which can make advancement even more difficult. We need to shift the narrative: women can lead, raise families, and excel in executive roles—and we deserve the same respect and support as our male counterparts.”

Authenticity, resilience, and innovation are the core values that drive Susan both personally and professionally. She believes in showing up as her true self and encouraging others to do the same. Too often, women feel they need to meet every requirement before applying for a role, but the truth is, if you’re 50% qualified, you should still go for it. We don’t need to have all the answers or hide our vulnerability. Growth happens when we push past doubt and allow ourselves to pursue our full potential.”

Whether leading strategic initiatives or engaging with industry partners, Susan Lewandowski is a force for change in the promotional products industry, advocating for women’s empowerment and redefining leadership success.
