Terrie Weinand Named Chief Operating Officer of PrO UnlimitedBURLINGAME, Calif. --(Business Wire)-- March 1, 2005 -- Andrew Schultz, President of PrO Unlimited, has announced the appointment of Terrie Lynn Weinand as Chief Operating Officer. Ms. Weinand, who is based in Burlingame, was previously Executive Vice President of the company. With offices throughout the U.S., PrO Unlimited is a leader in the growing business of helping companies address management and compliance issues associated with the use of contingent workers. With the implementation of new corporate governance standards mandated by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, this is an area of increasing concern for American companies. Weinand is a native Californian, and graduated Magna Cum Laude from San Francisco State University with a B.A. in Developmental Psychology. She has been involved in contingent-workforce management since 1987, providing outsourcing and consulting services to Fortune 1000 companies. In addition, she has spoken widely before legal, human resources, purchasing, and technical associations. She came to PrO Unlimited in 1994. "Terrie joined PrO in our very early days," said Andrew Schultz, "and has provided visionary leadership to our company ever since. Our footprint on the Contingent Workforce arena has expanded twenty-fold since her arrival, and Terrie has played a critical role every step of the way. Her ascension to the Chief Operating Officer title is the result of a lot of hard work and dedication to our company. For this we are very grateful." PrO delivers a full range of services to manage issues related to the procurement, selection, engagement and tracking of contingent (non-employee) workers, such as independent contractors, 1099 workers, consultants, temps and freelancers. The company pioneered the concept of vendor-neutral contingent-workforce management in the early Nineties, and today works with some of the largest companies in the world. Terrie Weinand lives in Pacifica, CA. |
