Chicago, IL (PRWEB) September 18, 2014
Celergo, a leading international payroll services management company announced today that Michele Honomichl, Executive Chairman and Chief Strategy Officer, will be honored at Upwardly Global (UpGlo) 2014 Passport to Possibilities Awards & Gala at Galleria Marchetti, September 18th, in Chicago. Honomichl will receive the Upwardly Global Award for Outstanding Leadership for her work and the work of Celergo worldwide, in facilitating workforce integration of global professionals.
Upwardly Global (http://www.upwardlyglobal.org/) helps highly educated but underemployed new Americans rebuild their lives and careers in the United States, simultaneously filling critical talent needs in finance, engineering, IT, healthcare, and beyond. In addition, their programs engage the employees of Fortune 500 companies as mentors and volunteers through formal employer partnerships, building the cross-cultural awareness and skills of our workforce, and engendering a sense of pride in corporate investments that reflect the value of immigrant integration.
Since 2012, the Celergo/Upwardly Global Partnership has delivered exceptional value both to Celergo and to the highly educated but under-employed immigrants served through Upwardly Global’s program. “We look for candidates who are multilingual, college-educated, proficient with numbers, with some customer service experience and, of course, a strong passion for international business. Our requirements are hard to find, and when we find them, it really becomes a competitive advantage for us. I’m proud to say that Celergo has hired five UpGlo job seekers into key positions,” states Honomichl.
The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine, CNN, CBS, BBC, and NPR have all credited Upwardly Global as a high impact social enterprise. The organization is the recipient of the distinguished E Pluribus Unum Prize for exceptional initiatives, promoting immigrant integration and was a featured participant at the Clinton Global Initiative Meeting on the US Economic Recovery.
