Staffing Industry Analysts Inducts Late PrideStaff Founder and Long-Term CEO, George Rogers, Into Staffing 100 Hall of Fame

SIA initially created the Staffing 100 North America list to recognize influential individuals who chart a course for the future of the staffing industry. After several years, SIA discovered that there was a group of people who made this list year after year - including Rogers, who was named to the Staffing 100 North America list for five consecutive years. In 2017, SIA created an even more selective list, the Staffing 100 Hall of Fame, to honor this distinguished group of consistent standouts in the workforce ecosystem.

This unranked list includes CEOs, entrepreneurs, consultants, technologists, innovators and others who spearhead growth for their organization and the industry, and who exhibit the qualities of empowerment, persistence, integrity, strong leadership and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

“I am thrilled, but not at all surprised, that Staffing Industry Analysts has chosen to honor George in this way,” stated PrideStaff Co-CEO Tammi Heaton. “His passion for helping others and entrepreneurial spirit drove him to build an industry-leading franchise organization that makes a real difference to the employers, job seekers and local communities that we serve.”

“George was a true pioneer in the staffing industry who achieved tremendous success by embodying PrideStaff’s core values of integrity, trust, reliability, respect, innovation, and, of course, pride,” continued Heaton. “He is deeply missed, and Co-CEO & CFO Mike Aprile and I are proud to carry on his legacy of innovation and service excellence at the leading edge of a dynamic industry that positively impacts so many people.”

As The PrideStaff Companies’ Founder and late long-term CEO, Rogers lived out his passion for providing people with opportunities to create meaningful careers. From its Home Office in Fresno, Rogers steadily built his single-office staffing firm into a nationwide, commercial franchise with a mission to “Consistently provide client experiences focused on what they value most.” Over the years, Rogers’ vision for growth and development also resulted in the launch of four additional divisions - PrideStaff Financial, Rx relief, Insurance Relief, and G.
