Podcast appearances and mentions of Kelly Services

Troy Anderson is CFO of Kelly Services, a staffing solutions provider to various industries, who has spent his career driving transformation across some of the most complex business environments. Before joining Kelly, he served as CFO at Universal Technical Institute, where he helped double revenue over five years through a mix of organic growth and strategic acquisitions. Earlier in his career, he held senior finance leadership roles at Conduent, a $6billion player (bought by Xerox).  Conduent life cycle a $6b public company acquired by Xerox Investor relations at Xerox as a game-changer for my career  Making finance a partner across the value chain Business Process Outsourcing vs AI The need for a deep understanding of your business  Catch the full transcript below

Career growth isn't always a straight line, and sometimes the biggest leaps come from taking a step sideways.  Troy Anderson, Chief Financial Officer at Kelly, shares the defining moments, pivotal decisions, and leadership lessons from his 35-year career spanning industries from telecom to education to talent solutions.  He reflects on leading major turnarounds and public company transformations, navigating mergers and acquisitions, and building finance teams that act as trusted business partners. Troy also discusses how to communicate through change, the importance of listening before leading, and how AI is reshaping the role of today's CFO.  Discussed in This Episode:  The career pivots that shaped Troy's path to CFO  How to lead transformation with conviction and clear communication  The power of listening and empathy in leadership  Balancing strategy with detail in a modern finance role  Preparing finance teams for AI and the next era of transformationFor CFO insights, episode show notes and exclusive blog content, visit thecfoshowpodcast.com.

When Troy Anderson accepted the CFO seat at Kelly Services in 2024, he stepped into an organization that, as he tells us, “had done a number of acquisitions … and really invested in the business.” The legacy staffing firm had spent nearly $1 billion to expand its reach but had yet to fully integrate those pieces. Anderson's mission: align a global operation that had grown faster than its systems.It was a familiar challenge. Across three decades and multiple industries, Anderson has made a career of steering companies through transformation. At Universal Technical Institute, he led a finance overhaul that supported a business which, he tells us, “more than doubled the company.” Before that, as a senior finance leader at Xerox and its services spinoff Conduent, he helped raise $2 billion in debt and “build out the public company infrastructure … from scratch.” That experience, preceded by an investor-relations rotation where he worked directly with Xerox CEO Ursula Burns and CFO Kathy Mikells, became “the game changer” that propelled him toward the CFO office.Now, at Kelly, Anderson is guiding a transformation “on both sides of the ledger … organizational and technology.” He's integrating recent acquisitions, modernizing finance systems, and preparing the company for the cyclical realities of a staffing industry he describes as “in decline for about two years now.”His approach reflects a pattern consistent throughout his career: when others see complexity, Anderson sees structure waiting to be built—and an opportunity to apply every lesson learned from the transformations that came before.

Welcome back to Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning podcast where behavioral science meets workplace culture. Hosted by Chartered Occupational Psychologist Leanne Elliott and business owner Al Elliott, this episode features one of the most brutally honest interviews we've ever had about what it really takes to lead people the right way. Episode Summary Picture this: you're in your mid-twenties, walking into a Detroit manufacturing plant for your first day as head of labor relations. Your job involves firing at least one person every single week, and you discover that you are a very different person to everyone who did this job before you - because you're the first woman in the role, and more importantly, the first one who doesn't carry a gun. Today's guest, Amy Bouque, Chief People Officer at Kelly Services, shares stories from her 30-year career in HR that most C-suite executives would never dare share publicly. From devastating personal loss that changed her leadership philosophy to investigating phantom poopers and naked Barbies in compromising positions, Amy gives us an unfiltered look at the messy reality of leading people. What We Cover Transformative Career Moments Amy's early days in Detroit manufacturing plants where armed security walked her to her car Leadership Myths Busted Why the myth that "leaders are born, not made" is holding organizations back Real-World Advice for Small Businesses How to build culture when money is tight using the "Yes, And" approach Having Difficult Conversations The Content-Pattern-Relationship framework for performance issues Key Takeaways 1. Connection Beats Command Amy learned the hard way that moving fast and making decisions quickly meant nothing if her team didn't want to work for her. Slow down, invest in relationships, and yes - it matters if your team likes you. 2. Embrace the Messy Middle Sometimes you do work Sundays. No, you might not be comfortable with someone working 20 hours for 40 hours of pay. It's okay to admit the complex reality instead of pretending everything's perfect. 3. Have the Conversation Script it, practice it, breathe through it - but have the difficult conversation. Not having these conversations isn't kindness; it's disrespectful to your team who already knows who's not pulling their weight.

We all deserve leaders who see our humanity, even when they're having to make the hard decisions - even if those decisions involve investigating naked Barbies.

These devices, costing up to $60,000 funded by grants, discreetly monitor air quality, alerting staff to harmful chemicals like nicotine. Superintendent Grant Rivera and his team aim to tackle vaping issues proactively. Additionally, the board will consider a $2.4M contract with Kelly Services for substitute staffing and appointing R.K. Redding Construction for Marietta High renovations, scheduled for summers 2026-2027, funded by SPLOST. STORY 2: Acworth Book & Storytelling Festival is Aug. 23 The Acworth Book & Storytelling Festival is set for Aug. 23, 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., at The Roberts School in Acworth. Hosted by Acworth Cultural Arts, this free event features local and regional authors, professional storytellers, vendors, and a panel discussion themed “Ink & Echo: Writing the stories. Speaking the truth.” Keynote speaker Bren McClain, author of *One Good Mama Bone*, will join T.M. Brown in conversation. STORY 3: Letter shows Cobb's threat to halt police services in Mableton Mableton officials agreed to pay Cobb County $9.5 million for police and transportation services after the county threatened to halt them by June 1. Mayor Michael Owens said the city was forced into the deal to ensure public safety, despite concerns of "double taxation" for residents already paying county taxes. The agreement funds services until May 2026, with Mableton exploring a special service district to cover costs. While Cobb County claimed it wouldn’t abandon residents, a May 30 letter revealed threats to cease services if no deal was reached. The city council initially rejected the plan but later approved it after mediation. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: Austell approves 158% property tax increase The Austell City Council approved a 158% property tax increase, raising the millage rate from 3.25 to 8.25 mills, despite strong opposition from residents. The hike, expected to double property tax revenue to $3.85 million, aims to stabilize finances and address a $1.6 million budget shortfall. Mayor Ollie Clemons defended the decision as necessary for the city’s future, while critics, including Council member Meredith Adams, opposed the sharp increase, citing its impact on residents, especially those on fixed incomes. Many residents blamed city leadership for financial mismanagement, while Clemons attributed the issues to inflation and past inaction. STORY 5: Cobb Water Authority manager talks fluoride, forever chemicals, costs Cole Blackwell, general manager of the Cobb County-Marietta Water Authority, emphasized proactive planning for water quality, affordability, and infrastructure reliability during a Kiwanis Club talk. The authority, sourcing water from Lake Allatoona and the Chattahoochee River, is addressing emerging contaminants like PFAS, though current levels remain safe. Inflation and rising construction costs have impacted operations, but costs are stabilizing, and the authority has a water supply sufficient through 2055. Blackwell reassured residents of continued fluoride use, compliance with regulations, and efforts to maintain reasonable water rates while ensuring future reliability. Break: STORY 6: Marietta man charged with stealing from Ford Elementary School Jamie Jr. Cline, 44, of Marietta, faces two theft charges for allegedly stealing a trailer and hay blower from Ford Elementary School in Acworth during separate incidents on June 29 and 30.

Hello folks, welcome to podcast 195 of the security box. Let's start off with a set of questions that came out of something we did not cover as part of last week's box. If you listen via the podcast, please submit your guesses before the answers are revealed. I'll personally give you credit where credit is due, and we can work out what you will get upon correct answers. The questions are: What 8 companies, 1 of which was part of the big ticket master breach were attacked? What small time actor group took responsibility for these 8 company attacks?which two companies disputed the hack? Finally, what was the most recent company that came out with confirming they were part of the actors fiasco? We also are going to cover the news, the landscape, Lastpass' recent fiasco that can happen to anyone and more. Our topic this week will be the talking about environment files that are used to store secrets including keys, usernames and passwords. Apparently these files, known as .env files are wide open and can be taken for use. Enjoy the program and thanks so much for listening! Our Scam of the Week Kelly, formerly Kelly Services has been targeting users who know the JRN's work. Kelly informed the JRN that this scam has been going around in this form for at least 5 months. The first report came from TSB's participant, Preston Gaylor. The second came from another subscriber who assists me in another capacity. Please read this blog post titled New scam from work provider, Kelly (formerly Kelly Services) for complete details on this. We link to the official web site where you too, can alert them about this scam. The representative informed me that they have over 500 copies of this and asked about the version that is going around. We'll be discussing this as part of the program, don't worry! Our Question If you intend to play, please do not look at the answers given below. We also are linking to sources of further reading too. Our Question What 8 companies, 1 of which was part of the big ticket master breach were attacked? What small time actor group took responsibility for these 8 company attacks?which two companies disputed the hack? Finally, what was the most recent company that came out with confirming they were part of the actors fiasco? The Answer: Skip if you intend to participate and win Answer: Snowflake, Anheuser-Busch, State Farm, Mitsubishi, Progressive, Neiman Marcus, Allstate, and Advance Auto Parts. Progressive and Mitsubishi disputed the threat actor's claims while Advance Auto Parts recently came out with details of their breach. Sources from the blog: Live Nation confirms breach at Ticketmaster Advance auto parts confirms breach, numbers don't match Snowflake's breach may be bigger than we think, let's add yet another company to the mix The links lead to our blog, where you can read more. Lastpass needs a break here, this can happen to anyone This can happen to anyone. While people want to jump ship because of this most recent outage, I don't blame them. It turns out, it was because of their chrome extension that somehow went completely ape and could have sent a DDOS attack. I don't want to go that far, but it was a 12-hour outage if not longer. I recently had to sign in and I was successful, and this happened on Thursday, June 6, 2024. This can happen to anyone, lastpass had a bad extension causing havoc is the blog post that leads to the story. I believe this could happen to anyone. Other News This is crazy, more snowflake news: “We aren't going to require MFA” 23andMe now being investigated for the 2023 breach Exposed tokens equals getting owned Google sends large check, google avoids jury trial Christie's notifies people of ransomware attack, ransomhub takes them and Frontier telecom We thought TikTok was bad, News Break seems to be worse What are .env files and why should I care? Why should I care about .env files in the first place? Our main topic discusses this and it isn't a good thing if you don't. The JRN tried to take paragraphs that disclosed information which supports why it is a bad idea for this file to be in the open and we also tried to take data that showed what these files contain. Websites exposing over a million secrets, leaving visitors at risk is the blog from Cybernews that we'll take from to lead this discussion.

Nearly one third of working age Americans has a criminal record, according to some estimates. Those 78 million people can face enormous barriers to getting a job, including outright dismissal. Fortunately, more and more programs aimed at getting formerly incarcerated individuals back into good jobs are popping up. Peter Quigley, CEO of staffing firm Kelly Services, joins Andrew to talk about his company's program, Kelly33, and to explain why this approach benefits job seekers, companies, and society as a whole.

Peter Quigley, president and CEO of Troy-based Kelly Services, spoke with Crain's Detroit Business reporter Kurt Nagl about the labor shortage, how long it will last and what long-term impact it will have on industries from manufacturing to health care. The exodus of nurses from the profession in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic overwhelming hospitals is symbolic of what the coronavirus crisis did generally to the job market. The impact on health care has been a shortage of nurses, but at the same time, Quigley said, the company has seen improved fill rates of substitute teachers as nurses flock to other professions.

This week, Liz sits down with the President and CEO of Kelly Services, Peter Quigley, to discuss how employers and employees are adapting to a new type of workforce. As workers seek to fit work into their lives rather than build their lives around work, Peter shares how companies must adapt to the ever-changing times and describes the making of a successful employer goes beyond wages and benefits.

  Click here for a machine-generated transcript.   Jo Ann Glim and her husband were enjoying the semi-retired lifestyle in their new, Florida home. They enjoyed day trips, volunteer activities, and other adventures. Jo Ann was starting a new temp gig at the Tropicana offices, and they were making all sorts of plans for the coming years .A blood vessel deep in Jo Ann's brain had other plans. It ruptured and damaged her Thalamus on her first day at a new temp job. Jo Ann would spend two weeks basically unconscious. With lots of work, determination, a a great team, she dove into her recovery. Twenty four years later, she joins us to talk about her journey, her writing, the risks of being a problem solver, and the things that helped along the way. Her book, Trapped Within: A True Story of Survival, Recovery, Love, and Hope* is available on Amazon. About Jo Ann Glim Jo Ann Glim was born in Chicago, Illinois to a military family and raised in Anacortes, Washington in the far reaches of the Pacific Northwest in a three-generational household. Even though the family was poor, she never knew it.  Poverty taught her life skills: self-sufficiency, creativity, and saving for a rainy day. Her childhood home was filled with love. Tragedy struck when she was fourteen and her mother passed away. Within three weeks, her grandparents were relocated to a nursing home in Illinois and she was taken in by her mother's sister. Everything she had known to be home was gone. ​After she finished school, Glim's career followed three paths: MEDIA - (as a disc jockey/copywriter) WSDM-FM Chicago, KMPX-FM San Francisco, and KIKI-AM Hawaii; and continued in COMMUNICATIONS - a forty-year freelance portfolio with credits including an award-winning column in fourteen northern Illinois newspapers; one-liners for nationally known comedians; monthly articles for Manatee County Florida's Chamber of Commerce Current magazine, to name a few. She took courses in BUSINESS MANAGEMENT - at a local college and after moving to the suburbs, began working for Kelly Services. Sixteen years later, she retired as an on-site Human Resources Manager responsible for the temporary needs of a Fortune 500 company. ​ She now lives in Florida with her husband, Bill, and their Scottish Terrier, Lucy. Her passions are writing, photography, and travel. She loves Chicago pizza, and is happiest travelling with her hubby, playing handbells, or on hiking trails with her camera and dog. Book Jo Ann sent me a copy of her book before we talked.  The book, Trapped Within: A True Story of Survival, Recovery, Love, and Hope*, chronicles her stroke and rehab experience. She gets deeper into her relationships with doctors, therapists, and her therapy roommate and shares fears, frustrations, and lessons learned along the way. Jo Ann writes with a crisp style that's easy to read. Her chapters are short. If you can read only a few pages without a nap, it's a nice choice. Or you can just read chunks of  it at one go. You can find Trapped Within on Amazon in paper or eBook versions. Check it out at http://Strokecast.com/TrapedWithin* "Trapped Within": Book Trailer Elizabeth Kubler-Ross and the 5 Stages of Grief Kubler-Ross wrote about grieving and death.  Recovering from stroke is similar, except instead of grieving over the loss of another person, we are grieving for the loss of our prior selves. Getting through that process takes time, but it also helps us adapt to the new life we have after stroke. The 5 stages of grief are: Denial Anger Bargaining Depression Acceptance. If you're struggling with moving on with your life a neuropsychologist or other counselor can help you navigate this path. Hack of the Week Lainie Ishbia from Trend-Able, who I spoke with in Episode 136 suggests that if you struggle with fastening buttons on a shirt, you can get around that. Just sew (or have someone else sew) the shirt closed at the buttons and turn it into a pull over. That way, you can still wear those stylish button down shirts without spending hours dealing with fussy closures single-handedly. Another option for those shirts, if you're not ready to get them sewn up, is to get a button puller*. This is an inexpensive device that makes it easier to fasten buttons with one hand. I use mine most when I'm trying to put my dress shirts on a hanger. Either way, you now have 2 fewer reasons to not wear that nice shirt. Links Where do we go from here?

Today's guest, Nicole Sharp founded her company Griffin Consulting Partners in 2017. Though she formed the corporation, it wasn't until a few years ago that she decided to go full time and really work on the business. GCP offers solutions in the fed health space and work with companies looking to grow and get into the space. With the mission to combine analytical thinking and intuitive understanding to unleash the full potential of their customers by delivering uniquely tailored consultancy services that are research-based, practice-informed, and results-oriented. Her current clients include VA, military health services throughout DOD, State and local hospitals. Prior to founding her business Nicole worked at Accenture, B A H, and Kelly Services three large defense contractors. But it was her decision to quit her job and focus on growing her business that changed it all. For the first 6 months she did spend time with friends and simply focused on learning everything about the business. She created a vision board, set her 12 month, 5year and 10 year goals and went to work. What is so humbling about Nicole was that even after winning her first contract she wondered how she got here. If that seems like an all too familiar circumstance of imposter syndrome stay tuned to this episode to hear what she did next and how she overcame it. I hope that you enjoy this upcoming episode as we take you through the journey of one of our very own GovconEDU alumni.

Recruiting the New Power Workforce. It's a time of great transition in the power industry. Not only are generation resources changing, but so are the work skills needed to operate and maintain those resources. Meanwhile, a large number of workers are reaching retirement age, leaving open positions that had long been filled by highly experienced staff. And the talent pool to fill those positions is not as large as many employers would like. Robin Schawe, vice president and global workforce solutions leader with Kelly Services, discussed some of the challenges as a guest on The POWER Podcast. She offered insight into some of the trends Kelly Services is seeing in the power industry. “Our research shows that up to 30% of the overall industry will be ready to retire within the next 10 years, with 10% being ready to retire now, 11% within the next one to five years, and 10% over the next six to 10 years,” she said. “While these retireants mount, the industry grows younger—22% of utility industry workers are below the age of 34. The concern becomes making sure there are no skills gaps, and we're seeing a lot of effort in this space.” Schawe suggested transition planning and knowledge transfer is key. Still, filling technical positions can be particularly difficult. “The number of graduating engineers is on the decline and recruiting new workers with the right skillsets for those jobs is becoming more and more difficult each and every year,” Schawe said. However, leading companies are doing innovative things to attract the right people. “What we're seeing is that power generation companies are starting to engage with those pools of talent very early in a new and exciting way,” she said. “One utility I know does outreach as early as middle school, educating children on what a utility does and the different types of careers available. I see high schools with some amazing apprenticeship programs. For example, my local high school has a four-year welding program. I also see a lot of power generation utility organizations making very strategic commitments and investments into hiring veterans. It's an exceptional source of talent.”

Margaret McMahon From Temp to Managing Director Today in the Lounge Nick speaks with Margaret McMahon, the Managing Director for Wimberly Interiors from WATG. Margaret talks about her unusual introduction into the interior design world, what her job at WATG entails, and what she looks for when she hires interns. Getting to Know Margaret Margaret McMahon grew up in Douglaston, Queens. Her favorite vacation spot is Ireland. She loves road trips, the people and the bad weather from there. She went to school and attended SUNY Albany and then DIS, Danish International Studies in Copenhagen. Beer, wine, or cocktail? She hasn't had alcohol in 9 years. She pretends to be drinking with a club soda, cranberry juice, and a lime. How Margaret Got Her Start When her father refused to pay for law school, Margaret windsurfed and smoked pot instead. Her mother ended up helping her by telling her to go to Kelly Services, a temp agency, and find a job. Trisha Wilson Associates was hiring for someone to cut matboards. Margaret was hired and ended up helping put together a presentation for the bankers' trust offices in Cairo, Egypt. She also took out the trash and got doughnuts. Margaret earned her two-year certificate in interior design at night while working for Trisha. She says that she learned things in school but in the ends was trained most by her clients. Not to mention Trisha Wilson was an amazing mentor. WATG WATG is an international architecture firm. Wimberly Interiors is the interior design firm within WATG. She has been with the firm for seven years. She is the Managing Director at Wimberly Interiors. Starting out, her job was to assess the business and open up a studio in New York. Her first year was tough because no one knew that she was coming into the firm. Today, Margaret's day to day really varies. She helps out the other WATG firms in Singapore or LA if they need help they help and vice versa. She often travels for projects. Margaret looks at proposals, manages staffing, and oversees financial work. There are some days where is she is completely bogged down with admin work that going out to the floor and just looking at the designs helps her unwind. She is very good at critiquing and giving advice on projects. Her job has no set definition because it changes every day. What Margaret Looks for in an Intern As an intern, or someone looking to get into the industry, you have to be willing to make it happen. Young people have to remember that this business is a learning process. Margaret doesn't care where you went to school, what really matters is your work ethic and your outlook on life. They absolutely look at portfolios and resumes when hiring. If you don't' have the same opportunities as someone going to a private school, if you're going to a public university or community college, you can still get the same opportunities, it just depends on how you author yourself. Even if your portfolio isn't all that great you can still sell yourself. Margaret and her team will certainly give you a try if you show you are worth it. Even if you are not required to do an internship for credit, Margaret highly recommends getting one to receive experience in the field. If you're passionate enough about the job you want and you do what it takes, you will be successful. To learn more visit Wimberly Interiors and follow Margaret on Instagram.

Joe Lampinen, Senior Director, Global Practice Consultant for Engineering, Business, & Professional Services at Kelly Services, explores how manufacturers today must meet the challenge of engaging younger workers just entering the profession. These workers have the expectation that they will change employers ten times or more during their careers. Employers must be able to upskill and engage all of their workers and choose the right option from the many available for bringing in outside workers, including temporary workers, independent contractors, outsourcing, and consulting firms.
