SUZANNE LINGUA

Senior Vice President, Talent Solutions Practice

Sue has over 30 years of experience in talent acquisition and placement services. After beginning her career with Lyn-Jay International, she went on to co-found Hire Logic in 1993. Her lean journey began shortly thereafter as a key resource for identifying and placing talent with lean DNA at Jacobs Vehicle Systems and other Danaher industrial businesses during the early evolution of their Lean Business System.


Sue is a search partner for businesses ranging from major Fortune 500 companies to small- and mid-level sized businesses. She is valued by clients and colleagues as a trusted partner for identifying Lean, industrial, and manufacturing leadership talent due to her long-term experience working with the cultural development of these types of performance-driven organizations. Sue is skilled in identifying emerging leadership talent and matching them with operational excellence-focused companies.

She is an expert in talent assessment and selection, executive recruitment, professional networking, coaching and emerging leader identification. Sue holds a B.S. in Communications and Business from Eastern Connecticut State University and is a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach.

Suzanne leads our Talent Solutions Practice where we know that hiring Lean talent requires more than matching resumes to job descriptions—it requires fluency in the work itself.

The Talent Solutions practice is built by practitioners who understand Lean at a deep, practical level. That expertise allows us to identify, evaluate, and place Lean professionals who fit the role, the operating context, and the maturity of your organization—so new hires contribute faster and stay longer.
