Our pillars

Susanne Conrad leads individuals and companies to lead their best.  Formerly, the Director of Possibility of lululemon, she's now the President of Lightyear Leadership.  She helps other uncover their vision and goals like nobody else.  In 2012, we publicly stated our vision for Native Strength Revolution in front of her and hundreds of the lululemon community.  It was a terrifying moment, yet that's when NSR was born.  Through the support of Lightyear Leadership's programs, we continue to keep our vision fresh. We traveled to Mozambique in 2018 and Ethiopia in 2022 to share leadership skills with villagers there, we envision this work empowering your life and the lives of your community members.

My grandmother was born in 1924 and is a member of Laguna Pueblo in New Mexico.  She is my greatest teacher and has instilled a huge sense of honor and responsibility to honor our traditions down to the last detail.

In her 50's she attended Harvard University to earn her Masters in Education.  She came back to serve her people as the principal of a Pueblo school.  Her example has shown many that it's never too late to elevate your life as you lead and serve others.  Also, every experience prepares you for the big vision.  Do everything and treat everyone with excellence.
