REDWOOD CITY, Calif., June 19, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- BetterWorks, the leading enterprise HR software for Continuous Performance Management ®, has announced the lineup of its 2018 HR Advisory Council.

The BetterWorks HR Advisory Council brings together a deep bench of HR luminaries and thought leaders who are leading advancements in the HR space. Together, they will collaborate to identify and share opportunities for innovation in the field of Continuous Performance Management ® and talent management best practices.

"Today's CEOs and their HR teams need to inspire higher performance, attract and retain top talent and build their leadership pipeline. Solving this complex challenge will require not only new technology and processes, but also out-of-the-box thinking and deep expertise," said Doug Dennerline, CEO of BetterWorks. "We're proud to partner with and learn from this inspiring group of HR leaders who bring real-world experience that is driving this transformation to ultimately improve the way people work."

According to a recent Gallup report, 47 percent of employees receive feedback from their manager only a few times a year or less, only 1 in every 2 employee knows what is expected of them at work and just 23 percent strongly agree they receive meaningful feedback from their manager. Additionally, 50 percent of businesses around the world admit to having trouble retaining their most talented employees. The BetterWorks HR Advisory Council provides a unique forum for these HR leaders to collaborate around solutions that help drive better business outcomes.

New members of the council include Andrew Cole, chief organizational development and HR officer at Vertiv; and Erin Flynn, chief people officer at Optimizely.

Chairing the Betterworks HR Council is Laura Garnett, founder of Garnett Consulting LLC and author of The Genius Habit, due out in February 2019.

"Outdated HR processes and platforms aren't delivering the needed business outcomes, and that's why these incredible industry leaders have chosen to partner with BetterWorks," said Garnett. "The members of this council share a common vision of challenging the status quo and changing the way that workforce performance is managed through improved practices and technology."

The members of the 2018 BetterWorks HR Industry Council are:
