The 2018 Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards in Technology – Vibe HCM, Inc. Wins Gold

Vibe HCM, Inc., a leading provider of cloud-based HCM Engagement Platforms, won a coveted Brandon Hall Group gold award for excellence in the Best Advance in Emerging Talent Management Technology category. Vibe HCM’s win was announced on Thursday, December 7, 2018. The winners are listed at http://www.brandonhall.com/excellenceawards/past-winners.html.

Vibe HCM’s submission, entitled “New Approaches to Engage Talent in an Agile Era”, focused on the need for organizations to push the envelope in terms of how they organize and engage their teams. The award-winning piece offers ways to address disengaged workforces, capitalize on the rise of the socially connected workforce and to shift from hierarchical to networked, agile workforces. These shifts in our modern workforce drive the need to evaluate both how traditional processes are improved (i.e. agile performance vs. annual reviews) and how using advanced technologies like Progressive Web Apps – never before seen in an HCM application – move talent engagement solutions forward by ensuring employees can optimally access the system at any time or in any location.

“We are thrilled to accept this prestigious award from Brandon Hall Group,” said Susanne Bowen, Chief Executive Officer at Vibe HCM. “This is great validation of our first to market, fully integrated, HCM Engagement Platform. We are building solutions designed to address the demands of modern HR, helping our clients handle the business of HR while creating an engaged workforce.”

“We’re proud to honor the innovators. As human capital management continues to evolve, the creativity of the award winners is breathtaking. Organizations of all size showed that creativity and technology can create new and better work experiences for businesses and their employees,” said Rachel Cooke, Chief Operating Officer of Brandon Hall Group and head of the awards program.
“We were blown away,” said Mike Cooke, Chief Executive Officer of Brandon Hall Group. “Our research was confirmed by the entrants’ responsiveness to the needs of employers who seek to align technology to the goals of their businesses. Every Technology Award entry embodied a win-win proposition for employers and employees.”
