"We're excited that Barry will be investing even more of his energy and experience in Workhuman as Chairman of the Board.

"His unwavering support, as we've worked to build a more human workplace, has helped the company develop to where it is today," said Eric Mosley, Workhuman CEO and co-founder. 

"This appointment strengthens the Board and helps solidify our market position as we move into the next phase of the company's mission to deliver on our promises to accelerate learning, engagement and productivity in this ever-evolving modern workplace", he added.

Recent Workhuman research data, examining the impact the pandemic has had on today’s workforce found that 60% of employees have witnessed a dramatic shift in company culture, with 27% saying that they were concerned that the in-person office dynamic will be forever changed. 

These dynamics underline the increasing need for Workhuman's solutions, connecting human needs with business needs without sacrificing either, as underlined by the company's 25% increase in revenue over the last three years.
