Employee recognition and wellness platform Vantage Circle has announced the appointment of new leaders, namely Bruce Barge, Debbie Kemp, Tonushree Mondal, and Tauseef Rahman, to the advisory board.
Vantage Circle stated in a press release that this marks its next phase of growth, as enterprises increasingly seek recognition platforms that extend beyond rewards to support performance, culture, and long-term talent outcomes.
The new Advisory Board will help guide Vantage Circle in aligning product innovation, market strategy, and enterprise value creation around these emerging imperatives
According to the official statement, Bruce Barge, an Organisational Psychologist and former Partner at Mercer, PwC, and Aon, brings nearly four decades of experience in human capital consulting with over 25 years in leadership and senior leadership roles. The company aims to leverage his expertise in framing recognition not merely as a program, but as a leadership lever that shapes culture, trust, and organisational resilience.
Debbie Kemp, an experienced human capital strategist and M&A executive previously at Goldman Sachs and currently a global senior executive at Biz2Credit, adds depth in integration strategy, growth acceleration, women’s leadership advocacy, and small business ecosystems. Her lens on financial services and entrepreneurial sectors will support Vantage Circle’s diversification and go-to-market alignment across the US region.
Tonushree Mondal, Founder of Tonushree Mondal Consulting and former Hudson’s Bay Company SVP, Organisation Effectiveness, brings specialisation in culture transformation, career architecture, leadership development, and organisational design. Her experience enabling scalable people operations across Fortune 500 companies enhances Vantage Circle’s ambition to allow enterprises to connect recognition, career pathways, and performance more effectively.
Commenting on the appointment, Vantage Circle’s CEO and Co-founder Parth Neog said, “The evolution of work demands a more intentional and evidence-based approach to culture. We are entering a phase where recognition, well-being, and belonging are strategic assets, not engagement perks. The Advisory Board is composed of leaders who have built and scaled that philosophy inside some of the world’s most complex organisations. Their guidance is invaluable as we build for the next decade of enterprise work.”
