Rochester, NY – The 2023 National Human Resource Association Rising Star Award honors the folks working to elevate and strengthen their organizations through innovative ideas that make a positive impact within the HR, DEI, and local communities in which they live. GreenSpark Solar is proud to announce that our People Department Director, Ciera Caldwell, was named to this list of HR professionals in Rochester.

RBJ states, “The people on this list are leading innovative companies, incorporating new technologies into highly complex work, providing expert support to other companies in the community, championing local start-ups, and more. They have not only kept their companies moving forward throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, in most cases, they have accelerated the innovative trajectories their organizations were already on.” 

Ciera embodies GreenSpark’s mantra, “We want to be a force for positive change.” She is committed to elevating GreenSpark to an employer of choice and has shown true leadership.

“…We have been given the opportunity to become a choice employer for so many. We provide above-average wages and way better benefits than most other companies. This care for our employees allows each of them to live a life with the tools to provide for their financial, physical, mental, and spiritual health,” says CEO of GreenSpark Solar, Kevin Schulte. 

At GreenSpark, we’re honored to be one of the many organizations fighting for a brighter future for the Greater Rochester area and our planet. Climate change is our generation’s most pressing global issue. Now more than ever, the importance of clean energy can’t be overstated. 

GreenSpark is proud to bring clean, renewable energy to homeowners and business owners in Rochester looking to decrease their carbon footprint. Fixing a global issue starts locally, and to Kevin Schulte, that means starting right here at GreenSpark. 

“Our stated mission as a clean energy company is to do our part to solve the climate crisis with local solutions to a global problem,” says Kevin. “It’s a privilege to work alongside someone that raises your aspirations of the business.” 

Ciera has done just that! Congratulations to all Rising Star nominees and organizations that continue to make a difference in their communities.
