Dave MacKeen, CEO of Eliassen Group, has been featured on SIA's annual Staffing 100 North America list for the sixth consecutive year, and the eighth time overall. The SIA Staffing 100 celebrates notable individuals whose impact on the workforce solutions ecosystem elevates the industry and drives its evolution.

The 2021 Staffing 100 North America list is a prestigious recognition awarded to those in the industry who helped take it forward; 2020 was particularly challenging as they led through the turbulent time of the pandemic. This unranked list includes CEOs, entrepreneurs, technologists, operation gurus, innovators, and others. It includes women and men who are spearheading growth for their organization and the industry by creating efficient processes, using technology to create new models of work that are driven by people, and setting the gold standard for operational practices and business performance.

"Congratulations to the 2021 Staffing 100 North America honorees. These leaders have displayed tremendous skill and resourcefulness amidst the uncertainty and volatility of the past year, meeting the moment with grace and agility," said Subadhra Sriram, editor and publisher, media products, SIA. "From the deployment of healthcare workers to needed allyship at a time when diversity matters most to launching new solutions, these leaders are helping the industry to reach greater heights."

"The talent solutions industry has always been nimble in order to keep up with the spaces it serves, but 2020 challenged us all to evolve at a rapid rate and innovate in entirely new ways," said Dave MacKeen. "It called for transformation far beyond business, but rather in the unity of our communities. I'm proud to lead Eliassen Group as we achieve success in our business, our communities, and our culture through innovation that keeps us together in the face of unprecedented challenges."
