Santa Clara: RiseSmart, which offers talent management solutions for a wide range of corporate clients, including a growing roster of Fortune 500 companies, announced that it has received the 2011 American Business Award for 'Most Innovative Company of the Year'. This year's Stevie Award winners were announced at an awards gala last night at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City. The award is the latest addition in the series of recognitions and awards gained by the company. On June 15, 2011, the company received the Red Herring Top 100 North America Award, honoring the year?s most promising private technology ventures from the North American business region. The company has also received recognition from TiE, SiliconIndia, the San Francisco Business Times and the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal. Sanjay Sathe, Founder and CEO, RiseSmart, said, "RiseSmart's momentum continues, thanks to the passion and dedication of our entire team. This is yet more evidence that we have disrupted the $3 billion U.S.A outplacement industry once and for all, delivering unprecedented results to employers and their transitioning workers." The company provides next-generation outplacement solutions. The company leverages a cloud-based technology platform, proven methodologies and one-on-one support to help employers with their workforce strategy and displaced employees with their career strategy. It drives significant ROI to organizations by offering affordable pricing, reducing severance costs and unemployment taxes for outplacement services. It has injected the power of its proprietary, cloud-based technology and service platform to turn the industry on its head with its Transition Concierge outplacement solution. It reduces time-to-placement for transitioning employees by half compared to U.S.A averages. Stevie Awards are conferred in four programs: the American Business Awards, the International Business Awards, the Stevie Awards for Women in Business and the Stevie Awards for Sales and Customer Service.
