Every year the Power List honors influential people on Long Island who impact our daily lives. Getting to this point in life is no fluke and more often than not, there are certain gurus behind the scenes of the influential that help guide their decisions and keep them on the path to success. Cooperperson is one such guru who has worked with several of the Power List honorees both past and present. As one of the premier executive coaches and leadership mentors in the region, Cooperperson is the ultimate amplifier. While her client list ranges from family-owned business to Fortune 500 companies, Cooperperson maintains a low profile, preferring to boost the accomplishments of her clients. She is particularly dedicated to women-owned businesses, earning her the moniker “Woman Whisperer.”
