business success within the IT, Finance and Engineering verticals.

Experis, which represents "experience" and "expertise", marks the natural progression for these organizations, each of which is well grounded in the professional resourcing and project-based solutions space. Operating within the IT, Finance and Engineering verticals, Experis anticipates the needs of employers looking to hire specialized talent in traditionally hard-to-fill and highly-skilled positions. This approach reflects the challenges and complexity of the Human Age, in which access to talent rather than access to capital is the new competitive differentiator.
"We understand that finding the right talent, in the right place, at the right time has become increasingly difficult, even as companies have learned to do more with less post-recession," said Michael Barker, senior vice president and general manager, Experis. "For many years we have been monitoring the macro-economic forces and trends impacting the world of work, particularly within specialized professional verticals. With this knowledge, we know that our combined entity has the size, scope and experience to solve complex workforce challenges. Our evolution to Experis ensures we are uniquely positioned to enhance the competitiveness of the organizations and people we serve."
ManpowerGroup is continually evolving to anticipate the changing needs of clients in the new world of work, developing a robust suite of innovative workforce solutions that are operationally grounded and strategically confront the complexity of the Human Age. The evolution of ManpowerGroup's global Professional services business into Experis is the next stage of this advancement. The new brand and its combined equity responds to the requirements of the Human Age, where an increasingly global and technologically driven society demands access to specialized talent, and unlocking the passion and potential of employees becomes key to business success.
"Through our deep vertical knowledge, expertise and experience, we know what talent to look for and where to find it," said Barker. "Because of our increased precision and partnering relationships, we can identify the best opportunities for a cultural match, resulting in higher impact and accelerated results for our clients."
Experis has tenured relationships with more than half of the Fortune 50 companies and more than 70 percent of the Fortune 500, and is adept at attracting, assessing and retaining top talent that accelerates business growth.
