PLEASANTON, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 27, 2013) - PearlHPS, a predictive analytics software company, named Steve Cadigan (www.linkedin.com/in/cadigan) a new member of their advisory board this month. A seasoned talent executive with over 25 years of global human resources experience, Cadigan has practiced HR in the US, Canada and Asia-Pacific region and has worked on dozens of complex acquisition integrations around the globe.
"I am excited to be involved with PearlHPS," said Cadigan. "After reviewing this bleeding edge predictive analytics software, I realized we could be looking at the next generation of tools that become the game changer for those who have responsibility for future growth in the business. This is pure gold and could be as big as the foundation of the cloud itself. Predicting the future success of a company, division or major team with accuracy enables those who have Pearl Predict to win over those who don't."
Most recently, Cadigan spent nearly 4 years at LinkedIn as VP Talent and the Head of HR; he took the company from a private firm of 400 employees through an IPO and into the powerhouse that it is recognized as today, with nearly 4,000 employees. He was instrumental in laying the foundation of LinkedIn's leadership team and culture, which has been repeatedly recognized as one of the core reasons for LinkedIn's success.
"We are thrilled to welcome someone with such a high caliber of experience in HR, M&A and more to PearlHPS," said founder Gene Tange. "With so many successes, we're so glad to have his years of experience and wisdom behind our predictive analytics software company."
Before LinkedIn, Cadigan served as VP of HR at Electronic Arts for 2 years and Cisco Systems for 6 years where he helped build Cisco's world-class M&A integration team as Director of the HR M&A team. Today Steve spends his time mentoring and coaching leaders while also advising companies going through rapid growth.
