    SilkRoad technology, inc., a leading provider of social talent management solutions, has been named a finalist in the Innovation in Customer Service category for the sixth annual Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service. SilkRoad’s Dedicated Support Team, which was officially launched in 2011, was recognized for its unique approach to customer service and for increasing customer satisfaction and loyalty.

I know the final judges have a tough task ahead of them to determine the Stevie Award placements.”
