Company debuts as number 3 of the 20 Fastest Growing Companies in the Corridor
CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (05/24/2011)(readMedia)– Skywalk Group is among those recognized as the fastest-growing companies in the Cedar Rapids – Iowa City corridor. The annual competition, coordinated by the Corridor Business Journal, evaluates businesses operating within the I-380 and surrounding areas for contributions made to the local economy.
Placement on the list is determined by revenue growth over the preceding three-year period. Dollar and percentage growth are among the metrics used to determine specific rank. In its debut year among the honorees, Skywalk Group emerges in 3rd place.
The announcement was made Tuesday, May 24 at a ceremony acknowledging the award winners. Skywalk Group owners Tami Young, Elizabeth Trcka, Lydia Brown, and Tim Sieck were present to receive the award and share success stories with employees and other business owners helping strengthen east central Iowa commerce.
A leading human resources consulting and development company, Skywalk Group formed in 2008 when the four accomplished professionals partnered to create a specialized firm for the purpose of counseling startups and large corporations alike.

Armed with human resource tools and processes, Skywalk Group assesses the strategic needs of organizations along with the developmental needs of individuals to design solutions bearing long-term benefits.
Asked to comment on the CBJ award, Skywalk Group partner Tim Sieck remarked, “We believe this award helps solidify Skywalk Group as the strategic HR partner in the corridor area and assists us in recruiting exceptional talent to our team.”
In four years since inception, Skywalk Group has grown to 21 employees from eight. In 2010, the company earned its Targeted Small Business certification for meeting criteria established by the State of Iowa as a woman-owned business.
