Sue
Burnett’s successful business, management and personal
philosophy are all the same...”Don’t consider failure
as an option. Think of setbacks as bumps in the road of success and
learn from them. Treat others the way you want to be treated.”
Since founding Burnett Personnel Services in 1974, Sue has become
a respected leader in the staffing industry, a well-known contributor
to the community, and a sought-after speaker.
Her accomplishments reflect her business acumen and her concern
for others:
