Brielle Franklin

Director, Talent Acquisition at Ergatta

My 3 dream dinner guests would be: Simon Sinek, Adam Grant, Dumbledore

If there were 25 hours in a day, I'd spend the extra hour: There aren't 25 hours in a day already?! ;)

If I could compete in an event at the Olympics, it'd be: Figure skating [if I could figure skate]

Are you a cat or a dog person (or neither?)

Dog person. BIG BIG dog person. In my next life, I want to come back as Big Kev [my dog, who's a Mini Newfypoo]. Otherwise, it's a tough call between a Tibetan Terrier or a Briard

What's your communication style?

Verbose ;) far better at keeping things concise and relevant verbally....my written comms style has a lot of "[ ]" & a healthy number of "( )" [apparently I'm turning the team onto it!] Descriptor words: some combination of whimsical, candid, and exceptionally passionate (depending upon the audience)

What's the best professional advice you ever received?

"You're too young to be comfortable."

What are your strengths?

Curiosity might have killed the cat, but I think my genuine fascination for a bizarre yet impressive variety of topics is a strength of mine. The fact that I'm an exceptional Googler and look up almost everything I hear/ read only serves to fuel that fire.

Personally, I'd like to think my greatest strength is my commitment and dedication to my team [and this extended team!]. Perhaps it's an occupational hazard, but there is truly no better feeling in the world than seeing a team member really hit their stride.

How do you like to run meetings?

In an ideal world, efficiently. In the real world, they're a work in progress. But I like my team meetings to be personal first, professional second...and highly interactive.

Ergatta is changing the motivation that moves people. We are a team of bright, driven, and innovative thinkers on a mission to build a new consumer category: game-based home fitness. Our flagship product, the Ergatta Rower, provides a competitive and personalized full-body rowing workout through an engaging game-based interface. Our products are sustainably-made in New England from American cherrywood and designed to be on display. As fitness activity increasingly shifts into the home, we believe the big winners will be those who innovate around what is on the screen. Our content provides a new and uniquely addictive consumer experience, radically different from traditional instructor-led offerings. Ergatta recently closed a $30M Series A, led by Advanced Venture Partners and joined by Greycroft, Fifth Wall, Gaingels, and Hans Tung (GCV). Off the heels of that capital raise, we are expanding our game studio, breaking into new verticals, and continuing to challenge the way at-home fitness “should” look and feel. However, above all else, we are investing in our company’s most important asset: our people. We invite you to explore our Org chart to learn more about our team, our culture, and what makes us unique :) If you like what you read - please don't hesitate to reach out to our team! We'd love to hear from you.
