My guest on this week's episode of the podcast is Ruslan Tovbulatov, who first saw how HR and people analytics could be a strategic enabler of innovation, during his time at Google. This inspired Ruslan to pivot towards the HR tech field, first by joining Arianna Huffington at Thrive Global, where he worked in senior product and marketing roles for four years before moving on to his current role as VP of Global Marketing at Gloat. The company that first coined the phrase talent marketplace. In this episode, Ruslan shares powerful examples of the business benefits of creating a talent marketplace.

In our conversation Ruslan and I discuss:

• The burgeoning HR technology market, the factors driving its growth, why the market is fragmented and what lies ahead
• The challenges involved with running a company in a new category of HR technology
• Powerful examples of the business benefits of a talent marketplace at companies such as Unilever, Schneider Electric, Nestle, Standard Chartered Bank and Walmart
• The benefits talent marketplace provides to employees, managers and businesses as well as the future developments in this field
• Whether the talent marketplace will mean that jobs won't exist anymore

This episode is a must listen for anyone interested or involved in HR transformation, internal mobility, workforce planning, people analytics and HR technology. So that is Business Leaders. Chief HR Officers and anyone in a people analytics, learning or HR business partner role.
