About the Speaker: Janis Mitchell, CEO of Precise Resource
Janis Mitchell has always been up for a challenge. If someone tells her she can't do something, she'll do it and she'll succeed. Though dyslexic and struggled with learning disabilities throughout her entire life, Mitchell jumped into an industry, which was thought of as dominated by males; Mitchell leaped right in the game and made her mark.
For three years Mitchell lobbied the State of Ohio to screen children who are at risk for dyslexia and reading issues. It was through her tedious and tenacious efforts she was able to get HB 96 passed through both the Ohio House and Senate unopposed, ultimately passing the bill into law in December of 2011.
Mitchell has been honored by U.S. Small Business Administration as Small Business Person of the Year for Central Ohio, and by the National Association of Women Business Owners as one of the organization's 2005 Visionary Award winners, Janis Mitchell is a serial entrepreneur consistently in Ohio's Top 50 Women Owned business for the past 15 ten years. Mitchell founded Precise Resource, Inc., an Executive Search and Technical staffing firm that specializes in providing talent resource management, for Global Fortune 500 companies like PWC, Citibank, Bank Leumi, Express Scripts, The Hartford, and Nationwide Insurance to rising small businesses.
Mitchell founded Precise Resource after 15 years of successful entrepreneurial endeavors in the technology industry. She previously founded Info Fortress Solutions, a provider of complex IT security, identity access management and communication solutions for large corporations. Info Fortress Solutions implemented the nation's first security assertion mark-up language (SAML) and cross-country authentication technology in the financial services industry. SAML is an XML-based framework for exchanging authentication and authorization information that allows a variety of Web resources through one Web portal, eliminating the need for multiple log-ins and passwords.
