Joyce Russell, Adecco USA

Joyce Russell is President and COO of Adecco USA,  the largest staffing company in the country and the third largest employer in the North America. Joyce has been with Adecco for 20 years, and has risen through the ranks to now manage an annual budget of about 3 billion dollars.
We’ve really hit the jackpot with Joyce, because what she does every day is find Great Work for great people in great companies. Joyce also has a unique perspective into other organizations and how they sustain great work.

During our conversation we discuss:

• Joyce’s inspiring Great Work story about helping displaced individuals find jobs after Hurricane Katrina (and how she convinced others to help out)
• The barriers to Great Work that Joyce sees slowing down other companies (oh yes, too many meetings is one of them!)
• Warren Buffet’s “compounding affect” and how it affects your relationships
• Some incredible insights about why people quit their jobs, and what you can do to retain valuable employees
• Finding that magic mix of your strengths, passions and responsibilities at work
