In his new role, Russ will be responsible for driving Talogy’s global growth strategy and leading the company in its mission to become the market leader in talent-focused and people-driven assessment and development solutions.

I am excited to work with the talented team at Talogy to continue to deliver innovative solutions to our global clients.”
