The University of Findlay’s College of Business welcomes Terry Terhark, president and CEO of The RightThing, as a featured speaker during the second annual Symposium for Scholarship and Creativity at 1:15 p.m. Tuesday, April 15, in the Alumni Memorial Union Multipurpose Room.

Terhark began his career in 1984 as an executive recruiter. In 1990, driven by his entrepreneurial spirit, he founded Selective Staffing Inc., an innovative company in recruitment process outsourcing that quickly signed General Electric as a major client.

By 1998, Selective Staffing grew to 250 employees and was acquired by Aon Consulting to bolster its own outsourcing group. From 1998 to 2003, Terhark served as senior vice president in Aon’s Employment Outsourcing Group and played a deciding role in the first major outsourcing deal with ATT, helping Aon significantly build its market share in the human resource outsourcing industry.

The RightThing was founded in 2003 solely to address recruitment process outsourcing by focusing on listening, exploring and meeting the individual needs of each client.

Since its inception, The RightThing has experienced exponential year-on-year growth in both revenue and employees and has quickly claimed its territory as one of the leading firms, adding global capabilities in 2007.

Terhark personifies his mantra and company namesake, “Do the right thing and good things will happen.” Setting the tone for the company’s ethics and culture, he built the foundation of The RightThing on the core values of flexibility, adaptability, commitment to each other, accountability, empowerment and trust. These standards are evident in both client and employee interaction.

Recently named an “HRO Superstar” by “HRO Today” magazine for a second consecutive year, Terhark and the company are regularly featured in industry publications and conferences.
