Staffing Industry Analysts has released its annual Staffing 100 list of movers and shakers in the staffing industry. It’s the 10th year such a list has been produced. In addition, this year SIA announced a person of the year for 2021: The travel nurse.

The 2021 Staffing 100 North America list is a shout-out 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 year’s list includes 33 new names. The unranked list  includes CEOs, entrepreneurs, technologists, operation gurus, innovators and others.

Sponsoring this year’s list is Indeed.

“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 full list is available online.

Also, for the first time, SIA announced a person of the year. This year, the person is the travel nurse. They were chosen because they have been at the forefront in the fight against Covid-19 as the pandemic increased demand for their services. And they answered the call in droves despite the dangers faced by the contagious disease.

SIA interviewed several travel nurses to hear about their experience on the front lines. Read their stories in Staffing Industry Review Online.
