The TSYS School's student chapter of Women in Technology recent received a visit from Gail Burgos, Chief Executive Officer of Girls Inc. of Columbus and founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Burgos Consulting Group, Inc. Burgos earned a BBA from the Turner College, a master's in human resource management from Troy University, and a doctorate in organizational theory and leadership from the University of Phoenix. Prior to her current roles, Burgos spent more than 25 years at TSYS, ending her tenure there in 2020 as Senior Diversity Officer. According to Patrick Aiken, "Gail and I sat in back-to-back offices while we were both at TSYS . . . Many late nights I would walk into the break room for a cup of water or coffee to find that Gail was also still there working on something important. We would encourage each other and get back to work every time." Burgos is the latest local business or enterprise leader who has visited with students enrolled in the TSYS School students. However, she has previously supported the mission of the Turner College. At the beginning of the 2022-2023 academic year, Burgos met with Turner College Dean Deb Kidder to discuss opportunities for Burgos and Girls Inc. of Columbus can collaborate with Kidder and the Turner College in the future. As Aiken added, "Gail is a magnificent person who gives unselfishly of her time and talents."
