Ed is a subject matter expert in product development, design thinking, operational execution, strategic sourcing, operational procurement, and Lean Six Sigma processes. He leads a team of product developers who produce net new products across the Kelly enterprise.

Rory is the director of Staffing Programs at Toptal and specializes in solving challenging enterprise client-talent needs. Rory kicks off our conversation with an exciting announcement!

  • As clients roll out the Human Cloud Solution, what is the acute problem that they\u2019re trying to solve on Day 1?
  • What do you attribute Kelly Services\u2019 longevity to, especially looking back at how the industry has transformed?
  • What do the next 2-5 years look like for the Toptal-Kelly partnership?

In this episode, you will learn about:

  • Toptal\u2019s partnership with Kelly
