“If I could go back 40 years and give myself some advice, I’d say become a student of people, because people make you successful.”


SEATTLE (PRWEB)

Parker Staffing, an award-winning national temporary and permanent staffing agency, today announced that Seattle Business magazine has honored its president, Debbie Crandall, at the annual Executive Excellence Awards. Crandall was recognized on January 23 at a special event held at the Museum of Flight alongside leaders from corporations and nonprofits across Washington state.

At a banquet, Crandall spoke about what it meant to be honored after 25 years in the staffing industry and offered this advice to up and coming leaders: “If I could go back 40 years and give myself some advice, I’d say become a student of people, because people make you successful. People run, grow and evolve your company. When you understand what motivates and brings them to work every day, you can build genuine relationships, cultivate trust and achieve results that are good for them, good for clients and good for the business.”

A full list of honorees for this year’s awards follows, and Parker Staffing salutes their achievements and drive for excellence.
