ROCKVILLE, Md., Sept. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Goodwill Industries International (GII), the leading workforce development provider in North America, is excited to announce the hiring of Martin Scaglione as the organization's new chief mission officer. Scaglione brings a wealth of knowledge and nonprofit expertise to Goodwill, most recently serving as the president and CEO of Hope Street Group. For nearly 10 years, he has served communities through programming focused on workforce development, fundraising and strategic planning.

Scaglione's experience in building strategic partnerships and leading organizations through transformation will help advance the Goodwill mission of ensuring people reach their full potential through the power of work. As chief mission officer, Scaglione will work in partnership with local Goodwill leaders to support their efforts to drive outcomes in the communities they serve. A critical part of Scaglione's role will be to work to engage with national strategic partners to help advance that work. 

"Goodwill works in communities across North America to help millions of people seeking to move forward in their lives through education, job readiness training and employment services. Martin will advance our vision as he collaborates with local Goodwill organizations on strategies that will strengthen their communities through innovative programming and national partnerships," said Steven C.

Prior to these roles, he served as president and COO of ACT's Workforce Development Division, where he launched the National Career Readiness system, and helped drive President Barack Obama's Job Council program, "Right Skills Now." Previously, Scaglione served in executive roles at Bosch-Siemens Household, Hon Industries and Maytag.

Scaglione has maintained a lifelong commitment and passion for helping communities thrive and grow.

"My life's work has been to create access to learning for those in need. Goodwill has an inspired vision that empowers millions of community members with the support and resources they need to reach their career goals," said Scaglione. "I look forward to implementing strategies that will increase mission recognition and community support for Goodwill."

Scaglione is currently a board member of the Hope Street Group, the Rosalind Franklin International Workforce and Finetune Learning. He is also an advisory board member for the Walmart Foundation and Working Nation.

He is a sought-after speaker on workforce development and has spoken at conferences including, ACT's National Workforce Development Conference, the American Legion's National Credentialing Summit, the Greater Cleveland Partnership, and the Wharton National Brand Conference.
