TROY, Mich. – August 18, 2011 – Troy, Mich.-based Brightwing, the staffing and training company that elevates human performance, has been recognized as one of the best and brightest places to work by the Michigan Business and Professional Association (MBPA).

“We’re very proud to have received this honor from the MPBA,” said Brightwing CEO Aaron Chernow. “Helping businesses cultivate rewarding and engaging environments that help elevate the potential of them and their employees is what we do every day. But that our company is a place where our team feels excited to come to work every day is something that creates a special sense of pride and accomplishment.”
