TrainingPros has been recognized as one of Atlanta’s “2021 Best Places to Work” in the Atlanta Business Chronicle’s annual ranking of 100 metro-area companies. This exclusive list recognizes organizations for having created an exceptional workplace with a culture their employees value highly. Winners of the prestigious award were honored by Atlanta Business Chronicle at an event held on Sept. 2, 2021, and TrainingPros celebrated with a table full of its employees.
Award applicants were evaluated and ranked across four categories according to the number of Atlanta-area employees. This year’s results highlight TrainingPros’ employee satisfaction in six key engagement areas, including team dynamics, trust in leadership, communication and resources, manager effectiveness, and personal engagement.
“I couldn’t be prouder of our team for this recognition,” said Leigh Anne Lankford, president of TrainingPros, a specialized staffing agency that operates 100% virtually. With a support team of employees and relationship managers (RMs) located in multiple states, TrainingPros has a talent pool of 15,000 and more than 200 contractors serving clients worldwide at any given time.
“Our culture encourages work-life balance and serving the community.” added Lankford. “Our business is built on the premise of helping others: helping consultants find work and helping corporate managers complete projects. This philosophy is a natural extension of our companywide desire to help.”
In 2021, TrainingPros announced its global “one for one” partnership with the reforestation nonprofit One Tree Planted. TrainingPros has set a goal to plant 10,000 trees over the next several years by planting one tree on behalf of every consultant the firm puts to work.
Additionally, TrainingPros has made a commitment to Pledge 1%, a corporate philanthropy movement dedicated to making the community a key stakeholder in every business. TrainingPros has challenged its team members to give 1% of their paid time to work on the community service project of their choice.
