SUSAN ROSSI (FIRST SPEAKER)

The DIA Queensland gave Susan a very difficult topic to present: ”What are you worth in the industry?”. Susan will present an approach from a commercial manager perspective: discussing the topics of bench marking, employment expectations, and salary renumeration attached to performance, experience, and employee expectations related to the market cycles.

Susan Rossi is one of Queensland’s most eminent Designers. Her experience is in excess of 25 years.  Susan is a qualified Architect (AIA) and a Fellow of the DIA. Susan is the Director of Interiors at DBI, one of the largest multi disciplinary practices in Australia.  Susan has been at the forefront in hotel and residential design both here in Australia and abroad.

Her extensive knowledge as a design professional in the fields of hotel, resort and multi-residential design makes Susan a leader within her field.
