SAN DIEGO, Sept. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Inspire Software has been named as one of the Top 10 Startups to Watch in the Brandscape™ 2021 Talent and Learning report. Inspire's approach to talent and leadership development anchored in OKRs and its ability to impact performance management are what landed its brand in the recent report.

"It is rewarding for our innovative team to see validation not only in this report, but by the companies using Inspire to drive better talent, leadership, and business outcomes," said Chris Wollerman, CEO of Inspire Software. "Inspire helps companies achieve their goals and OKRs while enabling teams and individuals to collaborate and align to the mission, vision, and strategy."

Inspire Software is even more important now in the COVID-19 era. Companies are challenged to address talent management with much needed creativity. Continuous performance management may no longer be unique, but by combining those practices with tried-and-true leadership development methodology, Inspire offers a cutting-edge option that meets organizations' needs today. Organizations don't need more managers right now — they need more leaders. And it's clear the market agrees: Inspire has experienced growth in sales over the last year despite an overall global economic downturn, which is further validated by being named a Startup to Watch.
