The People”, Sue encourages employees to excel at their tasks as well as to expand their knowledge and advance within the EEI organization; company training programs have yielded greater economic opportunity for EEI employees. This strategy is working not only for EEI but for the local community as well, EEI employees support several local non-profit outreach programs and Sue is a participant on several committees.
