CHICAGO (February 9, 2017) – LaSalle Network, a national staffing, recruiting and culture firm, announces today the recognition of its Chief Recruiting Officer, Krisi Rossi O’Donnell, as one of Chicago Business Journal’s 2017 “Women of Influence.”
The “Women of Influence” award recognizes business leaders who have a proven track record of success, focus on innovation, and a commitment to mentoring and giving back to their community.
“I’m humbled to be honored alongside this group of successful women,” said Kris Rossi O’Donnell, chief recruiting officer at LaSalle Network. “I’m extremely appreciative of the mentors I’ve had throughout my career and hope to be able to do the same for other women.”
The total list of 33 honorees spanned across a variety of industries, including health care, legal, real estate and professional services. The winners also play an active role in mentoring other women and giving back to the Chicago community through their volunteer and nonprofit work.
O’Donnell has been with LaSalle Network for over 11 years, starting her career as an office assistant, climbing the ranks to the C-suite, earning 10 promotions along the way. Throughout her tenure, O’Donnell has helped influence each of the company’s groups and has single handedly shaped LaSalle’s internal and external recruiting strategies. This has enabled LaSalle Network employees to provide clients top talent to meet their needs. O’Donnell’s vision and strategy for LaSalle Network’s recruiting process has allowed the company to achieve high sustained growth year over year, while also creating the opportunity for the company to move into new markets.
