SIA names 40 Under 40, Shaping the future of Staffing
Staffing Industry Analysts recently announced its 2026 class of 40 Under 40 honorees, recognizing emerging leaders who are making a significant impact across the staffing and workforce solutions industry. Mick serves as Executive Vice President of Dahl Consulting and is honored among this year’s recipients for his leadership, innovation, and contributions to advancing workforce solutions.
Mick’s path into staffing was rooted in experience. After beginning his career with Vail Resorts, he joined the family business in 2011. When Doherty Staffing Solutions acquired Dahl Consulting in 2017, Mick stepped into a broader leadership role, helping guide growth across both organizations. “When my role shifted into recruiting after graduation, it became clear I was already aligned with what we did as a family,” he shared. Since then, Mick has played a key role in driving innovation, growth, and operational discipline, while helping position Dahl Consulting at the forefront of workforce trends.
Mick’s recognition reflects both his individual contributions and the strength of the teams he leads. His passion for continuous improvement, innovation, and delivering exceptional workforce solutions has helped drive meaningful outcomes for clients and candidates alike. The entire Doherty Staffing and Dahl Consulting team is incredibly proud to celebrate this achievement and the positive impact Mick continues to make across our organization and the broader staffing community!
