Oak Brook, Illinois – Let’s give a big round of applause to Gina Krusinski, our Vice President – Human Resources, for hitting the 30-year milestone anniversary at Krusinski Construction Company!
Throughout Gina’s tenure at KCC, she has been the backbone of our Human Resources department and instrumental in recruiting, hiring and retaining our outstanding KRU. Her strategic initiatives, leadership and passion speak volumes to her character, and she always goes above and beyond to ensure we have a positive, inclusive and FUN workplace.
“Gina has made valuable contributions to KCC’s success and growth over the years, as she has a knack for being able to establish strong working relationships and connections with everyone she meets,” says Gary Dupuis, Chief Financial Officer (CFO). “We are extremely grateful for her guidance and looking forward to her leading us to even greater success in the future.”
Jean Reisner, Controller, also adds, “Gina has been invaluable in establishing key policies, benefits and guidelines to ensure all our employees are taken care of from day one. She offers an open mindset and collaborative approach to any challenge or situation, and is imperative to making key decisions for KCC.”
As a member of the Krusinski Family and Executive Leadership Team, Gina has been a key contributor to the success of Krusinski Construction Company. Alongside her brothers, father and uncle, she truly has been a vital asset, leader and mentor in the foundation of KCC.
Time flies when you’re having FUN—Congratulations, Gina, on 30 dedicated years at KCC where you’ve guided us down the path to always achieve our goals. We can’t wait to continue to be inspired by your words and actions each day!
We took a deeper dive into Gina’s 30-year legacy at Krusinski Construction Company and asked her to share her thoughts on what it means to be a key contributor to building the family business.
What makes working at Krusinski Construction Company special?
Getting to work alongside by brothers, father and uncle over the years has been a truly meaningful experience. We’ve built a strong foundation of trust, and I’ve learned valuable lessons from each of them. I couldn’t be more grateful to share in the family legacy of Krusinski Construction Company.
If you could describe Krusinski Construction’s company culture, what would you say?
Krusinski’s culture is a “work hard, play hard” environment where we know the balance of working hard and having fun while we do it. Our team is exceptional—committed to supporting both our clients and one another. We are aligned and always working towards shared goals, and when it is time to unwind, we truly know how to have fun and enjoy each other’s company.
What is your favorite Krusinski memory/experience?
One memory I often come back to revisit is our office move from Westchester to Oak Brook. It was 1999 and Y2K had everyone in the world in a panic. There was “impending doom” about the potential for widespread computer system failures when the clocks struck midnight on 1/1/2000. Fortunately, we made it through without any major issues, but the tension and uncertainty of that time still stand out!
How has Krusinski Construction Company helped shape your career as a professional?
I love learning, and I continue to learn something new here nearly every day. Everyone brings unique experiences that create opportunities to teach and learn from each other. Working closely with so many dedicated people has given me insight into different perspectives—and the chance to share my own. I’ve come to really value a mindset of service, and I take a lot of pride in passing on some of my 30 years of institutional knowledge to help others grow. The best part is the sense of pride in overcoming challenges together while learning new things and turning our customers’ vision into reality.
How has Krusinski Construction Company helped shape your career as a professional?
As a family-owned company, there are so many ways that Krusinski Construction Company has given back not only to me and my family, but to the extension of our family—Our KRU! I have been blessed to learn from a team filled with the best and brightest individuals. Every challenge and every success over the past 30 years has taught me important lessons, helping me build my confidence and resilience along the way. Without each relationship and connection, I wouldn’t be where I am today.
