Dawnette Cooke

I have over 25 years of experience in the contingent workforce industry. As a seasoned executive and trusted advisor, I currently spearhead strategy and development for Enterprise Clients at TalentProcure, a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) that champions a modern Contingent Workforce Management platform. My career is driven by a passion for collaborating with clients and partners to reimagine and implement forward-thinking strategies that align with contemporary workforce needs and propel the evolution of work. My expertise spans delivering value-added solutions across MSP, VMS, IC Compliance, Direct-Sourcing and SOW Management sectors, underpinned by technology, ecosystem partnerships, and a steadfast commitment to service delivery excellence. Recognized as a thought leader, I eagerly share insights and best practices. Collaboration is the essence of my professional ethos, bringing together visionary ideas and practical solutions to drive meaningful change. Beyond the professional realm, I'm also dedicated to giving back, particularly as an advocate for the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI). I’m grateful for the journey thus far and am thrilled about the future possibilities, both professionally and personally. Let’s connect and explore how we can drive the future of work together, creating a more adaptive, inclusive, and innovative world.
