In this episode of Spilling the Tea on HR Tech, Sapient Insights Group Chief Research Officer and Managing Partner, Stacey Harris, and Sapient Insights Group Director of Research, Cliff Stevenson, cover the successful diversity roundtable hosted at Pendo headquarters, piping hot news about the strategic partnership between Salesforce and Workday, and research findings on venture capital funding disparities.

Plus, they highlight the notable increase in participation of our 27th Annual HR Systems Survey, which received over a thousand more responses compared to the previous year.
