Claudine George, Co-Founder & CEO

Claudine George began her career as an IT consultant to the automotive industry. In 1999, while still working as a contractor, she founded her first company; Computer Systems Group, matching engineering and IT consultants with clients on the west coast.

In 2000, she used that experience to start ICONMA, a Troy, Michigan-based consulting firm that provides professional staffing services globally. As a result of Claudine’s motivational leadership and team-building acumen, ICONMA’s current client list includes a broad range of Fortune 500/1000 clients.

Claudine has expanded ICONMA into more service areas, including a successful IT Solutions Division, and Healthcare Services Division. Claudine believes the reason for their extraordinary growth comes down to their ability to acquire and retain best in class talent.

Ms. George saw a need that wasn’t being met in the Healthcare Industry and put an amazing team together to fill the gap with healthcare professionals. The Healthcare Division is the latest ICONMA venture and comes at a time when healthcare organizations often struggle to find the staff they need.

Claudine oversees the activities of the overall business and is active in the community promoting ICONMA’s diversity initiatives. Claudine serves on the board for the Great Lakes Women’s Business Council and encourages relationships with local and minority owned businesses.
