Chicago – August 30, 2023 – Trustwave, a global cybersecurity and managed security services leader, today announced it won “Best Advance in Corporate Culture Transformation” in Brandon Hall Group’s coveted 2023 HCM Excellence Awards™.
The Brandon Hall Group Excellence Awards recognize best practices for initiatives in Learning and Development, Talent Management, Leadership Development, Talent Acquisition, Human Resources, Sales Performance, Diversity, Equity & Inclusion, and the Future of Work. Brandon Hall Group is a professional development company offering data, research, insights, and certification to Learning and Talent executives and organizations.
“We are honored to be recognized by Brandon Hall Group for the success of our cultural transformation that we’ve driven for the past two years,” said Oriana Vogel, Chief Human Resources Officer at Trustwave. “This award validates our approach to creating an entirely new culture that is purpose-built to meet both our talent objectives, as well as the broader needs of the business. We’re dedicated to being a great place to work for our Trustees that prioritizes transparent leadership, continuous learning and development, and meaningful corporate values.”
As part of its transformation, Trustwave incorporated input from across the business and built a holistic talent philosophy, constructed new corporate values, developed an inclusive leadership model, formalized its first-ever employee value proposition, and instituted Moments that Matter, a hybrid approach to work.

The retention rate for Trustwave’s top performers is now 1.3x the company’s overall retention rate.
