Nominated For: The Career Catalyst Award

This award recognizes the team managers who are helping their organizations better engage Gen Z talent—while also developing the next generation of recruiting professionals. These nominees drive meaningful change on the ground through empathetic leadership, strategic program design, and a deep commitment to helping both candidates and recruiters grow. Their work is shaping more intentional, human-first early career experiences that resonate with today’s students.

From the Community: Why this Nominee Stands Out

To be considered for the CRCAs, individuals had to be nominated by a peer, manager, colleague, or direct report. This quote was shared by the person who nominated this person for recognition, highlighting the impact and excellence they’ve demonstrated.

“Lisa builds strong connections with our recruiting team and the candidates we hope to recruit by sharing her enthusiasm and genuine care. Her greatest joys in life come from helping others succeed and she puts a lot of effort into developing real relationships with Early Career Talent. 

As a key part of the Early Career Team, her authentic, people-focused approach is foundational to her success in both talent acquisition and talent development.

Lisa has a special talent for working with anyone. She shows she cares through small acts like remembering birthdays and staying in touch long after internships are over—often getting updates like wedding invitations or birth announcements from former interns.

Through building these relationships, Lisa delivers results. She consistently hires the most Interns and entry-level talent on our team and fills the roles quickly. The people she hires not only stay at Lithko, but are leading teams and projects within a few years - showing her skill at identifying qualified individuals who fit well into Lithko’s culture.”
