This series highlights the diverse backgrounds and leadership styles of Taylor’s top executives, providing valuable lessons and inspiration for the entire organization. This month’s Leader of Taylor is Sue Lund, Vice President of Business Development for Taylor on Demand, who has dedicated an incredible 38 years to Taylor Corporation.
In this episode of Leaders of Taylor, Sue shares her inspiring journey from growing up on a farm in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, to leading one of Taylor’s most innovative sales channels. Sue’s story is rooted in hard work and resilience, values she learned early while walking bean fields and helping on her family farm. She reflects on the profound influence of her parents—her father’s quiet leadership and her mother’s generosity—and how those lessons shaped her career and life.
From starting in retail and managing high-end clothing stores to joining Taylor after encouragement from a customer, Sue embraced every opportunity. She began as a sales manager for Royal Stationery, navigated roles in product development, and eventually stepped into leadership despite initial hesitation. Today, she leads with passion for customers and a deep appreciation for teamwork, proving that at Taylor, growth knows no limits.
Beyond her professional achievements, Sue shares her love for family and the outdoors. Married to her best friend Rich, who also served Taylor for 30 years, Sue treasures time with their four children, five grandchildren, and even four granddogs. Whether hiking Utah’s national parks or relaxing on the pontoon, Sue’s life is a testament to living fully and prioritizing what matters most.
Join us as Sue reflects on her career, her family, and her vision for retirement—filled with travel, community involvement, and supporting her loved ones. Her story is a powerful reminder that with dedication and support, anything is possible.
