Colleagues describe her as "I cannot begin to express the gratitude I feel for this amazingly gifted human being. Annette was the President of our staffing company ( actually, the heart of Carlton Staffing) yet she was unlike any President I’ve ever seen. The depth of her industry and sales knowledge is astounding. She effectively and purposefully created a culture of learning and growth. She freely shares her experience, expertise and guidance simply for her team’s betterment. I had 9 year’s of industry experience, but hadn’t worked in the staffing industry in 5 years when she gave me an opportunity and she mentored me into a top producer year after year. I once called Annette and told her my goals were too high and it made me feel bad weekly when I had not reached them, so I asked her to lower them. She said, and I quote “ I understand what you’re saying, but I’m here to help you grow and achieve those goals, I’m not here to help you feel better every week. Let’s work towards the goals for 6 more months and then we can discuss this again.” I blew those goals out of the water, just as she said I would. Annette has a beautiful ability to speak to her team on their level of experience and knowledge and guide them to success. She takes great joy in every milestone and sets an atmosphere of celebrating each other’s wins. I attribute so much of my career success to the years I spent working for Annette. If all those things are not impressive enough. . . Annette is also kind, compassionate, motivating, hilarious, witty, driven, determined, committed and fiercely loyal!", "I met Annette in 1997 and have worked for her twice. She is a dream to work for. Annette knows the recruiting business! She was always a cheerleader for her people. You knew she had your back. Annette is high energy, no nonsense and straight forward. She can manage a variety of personalities and situations like a champ! I'm so grateful to have had the opportunity to work for her!", and "Annette provided training for a local non-profit agency this month, which was well attended. She is knowledgeable and respectful of the different skills and values presented by participants. Her training style is very applicable. I recommend attending a session or class when the opportunity presents itself."
