Susannah acknowledges that the hardest part of growing a small business lies in "getting the right people in the right seats." She emphasizes the need to recognize that the right team members today might not align with the business's future goals.

Susannah draws inspiration from "Traction," authored by Gino Wickman. She highlights Wickman's concept of GWC—Get it, Want it, Capability to do it—as a valuable framework for ensuring the right people are in the right roles.

While Susannah doesn't stick to specific tools religiously, she actively seeks out podcasts and online content that resonate with her current experiences and learning objectives, enabling continuous growth.

According to Susannah, the essential tools for small business growth include coaching and self-awareness. These elements facilitate strategic decision-making and personal development.
