TACOMA, Wash. -- (Business Wire)

TrueBlue (NYSE: TBI), a leading provider of specialized workforce solutions, today announced that President and CEO Taryn Owen has been named to Staffing Industry Analysts’ (SIA) Staffing 100 North America list. The annual recognition honors the most influential leaders reshaping the workforce solutions ecosystem and advancing the industry through innovation, strategic impact, and people-first leadership.

“Taryn’s leadership is accelerating the evolution of our business—strengthening sales execution in the field, expanding our presence in high-growth end markets, and advancing the digital and operational capabilities in the markets where our clients rely on us,” said Jeff Sakaguchi, Board Chair of TrueBlue. “Her commitment to people and purpose continues to distinguish Taryn as an exceptional leader, and we are proud to see her recognized once again by SIA.”

Under Owen’s leadership, TrueBlue advanced strategic initiatives focused on returning the business to growth, strengthening its go-to market position, and enhancing the digital experience for customers and associates.

Owen has guided targeted expansion into multiple high-growth and underpenetrated end-markets, such as energy and transportation, and established TrueBlue’s entry into healthcare staffing through the acquisition of Healthcare Staffing Professionals.
