/ -- WorkBoard, the leader in Enterprise Strategy and Results Management, today announced it has added two technology industry veterans to fill new roles on its executive team, strengthening company leadership during a time of rapid growth and traction in the enterprise market.

David Ginsburg joins WorkBoard as Chief Customer Officer, and Stuart Crabb is the new Chief People Officer.

Ginsburg has led and scaled best-in-class customer success and strategic services teams at Box, MixPanel, eBay and UserTesting. Like WorkBoard, UserTesting and Box grew rapidly in large part because their customers rapidly expanded use of their products; his expertise in helping customers realize value quickly and deepen value over time are especially relevant for WorkBoard because half its sales are from customers purchasing for additional business units.

Ginsburg's experience as a strategy consultant at Accenture and elsewhere earlier in his career adds to WorkBoard's already-deep strategy services consulting team and will help scale its impact.

"WorkBoard has a unique and strategic relationship with its customers as it helps them deepen alignment, accelerate results and shift from an output mindset to an outcome mindset," Ginsburg said. "I'm excited to build on the strong foundation and team we have in place as we serve large enterprises at increasing scale."
"I've helped build phenomenal tech teams and develop programs at Facebook, Yahoo and elsewhere that enable people and teams to operate at their best, and I'm delighted to bring that expertise to Workboard," said Crabb. "What's particularly exciting to me is the opportunity to help grow our people team as well as make a strategic contribution to WorkBoard's mission to help companies and the people in them to achieve their best results."
"I'm thrilled to work with Dave and Stu, who are both expert leaders in their domains," said WorkBoard CEO and co-founder Deidre Paknad. "As seasoned executives they are also deeply aware of the challenges of aligning people on customer and company outcomes that we solve for our customers. This personal context and commitment are key to scaling an exceptional employee and customer experience."
