Playing to Win
12 years ago, Philadelphia got a gift from the Midwest in the form of Lea J., the Philly Temps & Perm Employee of the Month for February 2021.
She looks at each assignment as a way of advancing her team. From making it a point to greet each coworker and client, to gathering the information needed to meet and exceed expectations, to paying attention to her environment and adapting each ‘play’ as needed.
Most of Lea’s time with Philly Temps has been spent with our Convention & Event unit and it is like working with a star quarterback and a head cheerleader rolled into one. Always making sure everyone around her stays positive and engaged while focusing on the plays that best suit the situation.
Lea is focusing on starting a business, NeckSip®, so we are not always lucky enough to find her available, but when she says yes, we can expect a win.
