Brie Harvey

Brie Harvey is Head of Market Research and Community at Achievers, the employee recognition and engagement platform. She is a digital strategist and thought leader with more than a decade of experience in the HR technology space, and partners with the Achievers Workforce Institute to examine workplace trends and how motivational science can help organizations build engagement, belonging, and performance.

Why Recognition Software Might Be the Most Misused HR Tool on the Market

Before joining Achievers in 2015 to lead its global training and enablement strategy, Brie worked in talent acquisition, operations, and talent management for one of the fastest-growing staffing agencies in North America. Her sharpest current argument, made in her own byline writing, is that employee recognition software might be the single most misused piece of HR technology available: easy to buy, easy to under-configure, and easy to let default into generic, low-impact praise instead of the behavior-driven, values-aligned system it's capable of being. She has delivered hundreds of keynotes and executive roundtables on culture transformation, performance, and wellbeing, was recently named one of San Francisco's top female leaders, and now focuses much of her speaking on unlocking human motivation and meaning in an AI-forward workplace.
