Today, I am joined by Susan Lizan-Immerman, founder and CEO of MDesign Home Decor, 25+ year veteran businesswoman, and all-around #smartlady.  Susan started her business journey in the garment industry when it was very much a man’s world—but she didn’t let that stop her. Through valuable relationships and connections, as well as a real CEO mindset, that we should all aspire to, Susan grew multiple thriving businesses and created a longstanding career.  I am so excited to share with you my guest today, Susan Lizan-Immerman.

As soon as I start feeling uncomfortable, I have to submerge myself in that in order to feel comfortable.” -Susan “You have to be prepared to get lucky. You&#39;re constantly preparing, you&#39;re doing all of the right things. You&#39;re making all of the best decisions you can each moment that you can, and then all of a sudden, something happens.” -LuAnn More About Susan Lizan-Immerman  Conceiving, developing and executing the strategies and initiatives that drive revenue, growth, competitive market positioning, profits and shareholder value is what I do best. Throughout my career in senior executive and entrepreneurial roles with leaders in the apparel and home industry, I&#39;ve earned a track record of success in achieving exceptional rather than expected results. I&#39;m recognized as one who possesses the experience, capabilities and judgment for taking a business to its next level of success or resolving the deficiencies that impede its ability to grow. My management style can be described as &quot;hands on&quot; and decisive yet flexible. I value and reward creative thinking, initiative, teamwork, commitment and performance.
