Talkspace Names Erin Boyd as First-Ever Chief Growth Officer

Talkspace announced on Thursday that it’s appointing Erin Boyd to Chief Growth Officer, Enterprise, effective August 2.

Boyd will be responsible for driving growth and delivering differentiated solutions and capabilities to Talkspace’s Enterprise customers in this newly-created role. It also signals Talkspace’s intention to grow its B2B and enterprise franchises.

Around 2 million people have used Talkspace before and another 55 million are covered by Talkspace through insurance and employee assistance programs.

She joins an expanding leadership team at the virtual behavioral healthcare company, which recently named a new Chief Medical Officer Varun Choudhary and Chief Financial Officer Jennifer Fulk.

Boyd brings over 25 years of industry experience to her new role. She most recently led behavioral network strategy at Cigna, where she also oversaw network programs and solutions to help drive innovation, deliver cost savings and improve outcomes to advance behavioral health issues.

Before working at Cigna, Boyd held leadership roles in business development and marketing for Aurora Behavioral Health System, a preeminent psychiatric hospital system.

“We are excited to welcome Erin to Talkspace, and we look forward to leveraging her tremendous sales and business development expertise as we seek to further enhance the growth strategy of our Enterprise business,” President and COO Mark Hirschhorn said in a press release. “Erin’s track record for creating and implementing digital solutions within the healthcare space will be an invaluable asset as we prepare to oversee a larger market and provide broader and deeper coverage across the country through our Enterprise business.”
