Learning and talent management software provider Cornerstone OnDemand (NASDAQ: CSOD) today announced that leading industry analyst Jason Corsello is joining the company as vice president of corporate development and strategy. Reporting to Cornerstone president and CEO Adam Miller, Corsello will leverage his extensive expertise in HR technology and services to identify key market opportunities, drive corporate initiatives and guide M&A, as well as support product strategy and service innovation.

The strategic addition of Corsello to the company's executive team builds on the momentum of Cornerstone's recent IPO and drives key elements of the company's growth strategy, including international expansion, penetration of vertical markets and the extension of Cornerstone's technology leadership.

"Jason has been a top analyst, advisor and thought leader in the talent management industry for the last decade. His knowledge of talent management processes and systems, along with his experience working with leading global companies, will be invaluable in helping us map our strategy into the future," said Miller.

Corsello joins Cornerstone from HR consulting firm Knowledge Infusion, where he was the senior vice president of strategy and corporate development, responsible for the organization's strategy and solutions. He also developed and launched many new services at the firm and played a lead consulting role with many of the company's Global 2000 clients. Prior to his role with Knowledge Infusion, Jason was a research director at Yankee Group, leading the company's human capital management and talent management advisory and consulting services. He also spent six years with Flextronics International, where he worked with large, multi-national clients in developing their outsourced manufacturing and supply chain strategies.

"I've been a student of the talent management market for nearly 10 years, researching the forces that are driving the industry and advising companies on how to best realize the value of talent to drive business impact," said Corsello. "It's been amazing to watch the achievements of Cornerstone over that time to become a driving force in the market. I look forward to joining an exciting company with a bright future and enormous growth potential."
