Salsify, a product experience management (PXM) platform that helps brands win on the digital shelf, announces the hiring of Colleen Fuller as Salsify’s first Chief People Officer (CPO). In her new role, Colleen will report directly to the CEO and oversee Salsify’s efforts across talent acquisition, employee retention, growth and development, workplace processes, and preservation of the company culture.
“For a company that is growing as fast as Salsify, in an industry and market of such rapid change, it is intensely important to focus on how the work gets done, prioritized, managed, and reported. That is as much a human issue as it is a data issue,” said Fuller. “Taking on this CPO role at the current stage of Salsify’s growth is exciting, and speaks to how the company views its employees and managers as the chief component of Salsify’s success.”
