ASA Announces 2026 ASA Leadership Hall of Fame Inductee

Monte Block, president and chief executive officer of Equiliem, will be inducted into the American Staffing Association Leadership Hall of Fame, recognizing a career spanning five decades of leadership, entrepreneurship and service to the staffing, recruiting, and workforce solutions industry. Block leads Equiliem, a family-led staffing and workforce solutions company serving industries that support North America’s critical infrastructure. Under his leadership, the business has evolved and expanded while carrying forward a staffing legacy that now spans three generations.

“This industry has given me far more than a career. It has given me lifelong friendships, the opportunity to build businesses alongside people I respect, and the privilege of helping others build careers of their own,” Block said. “To be recognized by ASA and my peers is incredibly meaningful, and I share this honor with my family, our team at Equiliem, and the many people who have been part of this journey.”

Block will be celebrated during Staffing World 2026, the ASA annual convention and expo, taking place Oct. 12–14 in Denver. For more information, visit staffingworld.net.
