TEMECULA, Calif., June 30, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Perceptyx, the leading employee survey and people analytics platform helping companies see the way forward, announced today two new strategic hires; Cheryl Kim has joined the company as Chief Financial Officer, and Sham Telang as Chief Technology Officer.
Both will play pivotal roles in broadening Perceptyx product offerings and capitalizing on the company's growth momentum and expansion.

"Cheryl is a builder and a visionary, combining the right mix of strategic and tactical financial expertise to help people and organizations achieve their full potential," said John Borland, Perceptyx CEO and co-founder. "She knows what it takes to strengthen foundations, scale infrastructure, and develop talent for high-growth technology organizations."

"I'm excited to leverage my financial, strategic, and operating experience to help John and the entire team expand our opportunities internationally, continue to enhance our products, and work with our investors to take Perceptyx to the next level."
Telang brings over 20 years of multinational leadership and software technology experience to his role as CTO of Perceptyx, leading large-scale digital and product transformation initiatives, most recently as the COO/CTO of LegalZoom and prior to that as Global CTO for Experian Consumer Services.
