Sally Block, President & CEO

 I built my business career from the ground up, but I didn't do it alone and neither will you. You don't have to be an expert in everything to start or reenergize your company. My passion is business, so let me focus on yours so you can focus on your dream.

I’ve held senior sales positions leading growth strategy and implementation from start-ups to billion dollar publicly traded companies. With an expertise in go-to-market functions, and a background in data, analytics, and technology, I’ve been a key executive in transforming organizations and growth acceleration. 

I earned my undergraduate degree in Communication Disorders and Education from the University of Mary Washington and the University of Virginia. I have served on the Board of Directors of BNA, Pike and Fischer and the Northern Virginia Technology Council. I’ve also held leadership roles in support of the global community with service to Living Waters International in Haiti, Global Missions Worldwide and Solar under the Sun.  

Fun fact- Coan Consulting has it's roots on the Coan River in Northumberland County Virginia. The name of the river comes from the Chickacoan Indians that inhabited the area before European settlers arrived. The Coan serves as the spot where I do some of my best thinking.
