About Kelly Robinson: Kelly Robsinson has been building and implementing professional recruitment services since 1998 in a broad range of settings and industries. Before starting PKR (Panna Knows) in 2019, Kelly served as the Managing Partner for a five million-dollar firm for 13 years, growing it 1000%. As formerly quoted by the CEO, “We would not be where we are without Kelly, not only in her current role, but in her contributions throughout the years. She has been the most impactful hire”.
With Kelly’s leadership, along with a best in class, collaborative and highly impactful team, PKR has already well exceeded over 1000% growth in just 3 years. Over 20 plus years of exploring every aspect of recruiting and hiring, she’s packaged her process into her Next Level Recruiting™ system and approach to recruitment. “I feel strongly that recruitment needs to be intentional. Our focus needs to be making the best possible match to help our partner achieve their objectives with the right time that they are able to retain.”
The NLR framework details Kelly’s 9 Stages of the Talent Acquisition Life Cycle. Kelly has developed her PKR Reach program that offers NLR™ training to recruiters at all levels and her myPACT program which is a coaching program for select recruitment professionals. Kelly’s hope is to share her experiences with recruiters globally in a simplified step-by-step framework. She’s made mistakes, so you don't have to.
Kelly is often heard saying, “Everyone has something to teach, and everyone has something to learn.” She believes that best recruiters do two things: 1) Listen and 2) Ask the hard questions. This is something that has been incorporated into her UnCulture™ philosophy. Kelly resides in Philadelphia and is a single mother to the love of her life, her 12-year-old son and her Cavapoo puppy. She loves working out, eating healthy, and making memories with those she loves.
