Ventana Research, the leading market advisory and research services firm in providing consulting, advisory, research and education (CARE) products to organizations worldwide, continues to advance the corporate values of the organization in excellence, reliability, and teamwork with its growth. The firm’s dedication to its clients and use of its products, in what is called the Ventana eXperience (VX), requires a commitment to the expansion of the organization through subject matter experts. In this regard, Ventana Research announces the hiring of Quincy Valencia as Vice President and Research Director. Quincy is joining the analyst team reporting to Robert Kugel, our Senior Vice President and Research Director, who is responsible for our overall business research.
Quincy is an innovative executive with extensive experience in HR and HCM technologies. She has a unique background, having worked both as a HCM practitioner and technology provider. Prior to joining Ventana Research, she served as VP of Product Innovation with AMS, and designed and launched the first end-to-end conversational platform for the hourly workforce. Previously, she held technology and leadership roles with Fortune 500 companies including ADP and The Home Depot. Quincy holds a master’s degree in HR Management and a bachelor’s degree in International Finance and Marketing from the University of Miami.
"I couldn't be more pleased to join the Ventana Research team, at this most exciting time in HCM technology," said Quincy Valencia, VP and Research Director at Ventana Research. "The consolidation in the technology markets, combined with unprecedented macroeconomic conditions, makes it an imperative for companies to critically examine their applications, and for vendors to focus on delivering the best possible customer experience for their customers. I look forward to bringing my industry experience to the forefront to engage with our HCM clients."
Quincy will be responsible for servicing Ventana Research clients in human capital management, ensuring they benefit from the company's world-class advisory and research service called Ventana On-Demand—that helps guide organizations and vendors on the market—and the education and consultative services, including assessments and workshops. She will also be responsible for the related market research including the products: Benchmark Research and Dynamic Insights, and the vendor and product analysis and comparison research that is provided in the Ventana Research Value Index.
"Our continued investment into our team to bring the most talented subject matter experts in expertise areas led us to Quincy, whose commitment and passion to HCM is remarkable,” said Mark Smith, CEO and Chief Research Officer at Ventana Research.
