Chris Layden’s Post

Kelly leaders recently traveled from across the globe — APAC, EMEA, and North America — to spend a few days together at our Detroit headquarters.   We did something we hadn't done in a long time: we brought everyone together for our all-company picnic. New coworkers shook hands for the first time, teammates from different regions caught up in person, and colleagues across departments exchanged ideas in the office.   We managed to pack about 250 of us into one frame for what might be my biggest selfie yet.   We also welcomed Alan Stukalsky, our new Chief Product and Technology Officer. His first day at Kelly happened to land right in the middle of this, and he jumped in immediately, meeting our global leaders and getting a firsthand feel for what makes this team different.   Weeks like this remind me what our global footprint means. Colleagues from around the world all pulling in the same direction for the clients and talent who count on us. This is how we build the trust and connection that make us stronger as one enterprise.   As we count down to our 80th anniversary this October, this is the kind of week that gets me excited for what's ahead. We are Kelly. 💚

Thanks for the warm welcome, Chris. I couldn’t have asked for a better first week. The energy, collaboration, and passion across our global leadership team are inspiring. Honored to be part of Kelly and excited for what we’ll accomplish together. And I’m working on my selfie game. 📸💚

Among Chris Layden’s many talents, who is better at the selfie game! Congrats to the Kelly team on first half of 2026 success.

Nothing beats getting your most valuable asset, your relationships, together in-person! Kudos, Chris Layden. In 2026, #RelationshipMatterMoreThanEver #RelationshipEconomics

That's a perfect group selfie! Chris Layden. I still haven't figured out the secret to fitting everyone in while keeping the people in the back visible. Looks like you've cracked the code. 😄
