Diversity Hiring Fire Drills with Venesa Klein
May 21, 2021 17:16 - 22 minutes - 19.8 MBIt is no secret that diversity sparks innovation and fuels business growth. But diversity for the sake of image or social pressure is dangerous. It needs to truly be embedded into the fabric of the corporate values in how people interact. It is not just checking off a box to satisfy outsiders. This is most dangerous when someone is hired simply for their gender or race without any consideration of what the individual is positioned to contribute. Values are misaligned, expectations miscomm...
Bias in Interviewing Starts with the Resume with Dr. Michael Neal of Build My Team
May 13, 2021 19:05 - 26 minutes - 23.7 MBWhat if you completely eliminated the resume from your entire hiring process? Now you might be thinking, “how is that even possible”? Well, lets’ divulge a few truths about the resume. First, all resumes lie. Not only in what is written but more importantly, what is not. Really the most valuable information on a resume is the contact information and the white space. And the white space is where the truth is found. Today we discuss how to effectively circumvent the resume to uncover the str...

Managing Expectations when Fundraising & Hiring for ROI with Brian Franco of Meritage Partners
May 06, 2021 18:15 - 22 minutes - 20.2 MBAssumptions are the #1 reason we fail in our expectations when hiring and raising capital. Assumptions are drawn when we don’t invest the time to listen to all parties. Asking deeper questions to gather data to support an accurate decision is crucial. What is not uncovered is the reason we make bad hires. Because we inject our own assumptions, needs & bias where the evidence should be. This especially holds true in your hiring process when our needs and desires cloud what is most importa...

A Superstar Culture is Achieved by Having a Systematic Hiring Process with Robert Glazer of Acceleration Partners

Should Political Views be Reason Not to Hire with Bianca Lager
April 22, 2021 19:06 - 23 minutes - 21.3 MBIt is very possible to share the same core values, yet differ in our religious or political views. This, we must understand when hiring new people. Now you might be thinking something like “we have a really harmonious team and we don't want someone who will be bringing their strong political, religious or social agenda”. Then build the practice into your corporate values and let it blossom throughout the company. After all, we are all servants to the “business”. And what is good for the ...

How to Create an Accurate Brand That Connects with Your Future Hires with Eric Morley of Blue C Advertising
April 15, 2021 19:57 - 20 minutes - 18.9 MBIt’s no secret that I feel that employer branding is bullshit. Mostly because it is focused on perks and selling a “utopian” environment that is not what the company really is at all. Messaging is focused on being the greatest place to work. But we all know that if you are a small to mid sized business, you are at best, a “hot mess”. Clarity in who you REALLY are as an organization is the one thing that will propel your business forward and attract the strongest people to your company. ...

How a Hiring Operating System is the Key to 10x Your Business with Rick Solo (Han’s little brother?) of Stride Search Inc.
April 01, 2021 19:56 - 17 minutes - 16.1 MBWe can all agree that the only way to 10 or 100x your company is to hire the strongest people. So, what are the strongest people? The strongest person for your company is a person who aligns with your values first. They understand the mission and they have a strong desire to impact the business because it benefits them first. Understanding the person across the table does not happen by chance but by a systematic approach to your interview that is designed to gather concrete evidence. T...

Why Interview Training is so Critical in Today’s Hiring Market with Adam Stonehocker of Gemini
March 25, 2021 21:13 - 19 minutes - 18.2 MBIf hiring right is so critical to the organization, why is interviewing the one action that is entirely left up to chance? It has been my experience that virtually zero small companies invest in training their people how to interview. This was the experience of an extremely successful executive, Jeff. Who at the C-level had only attended a one hour session of interview training in his whole career…. 10 years ago. It is assumed that most leaders already know how to interview but the truth i...

Developing an Outward Hiring Mindset with Jonathan Domsky of Untangled Coaching
March 19, 2021 16:03 - 21 minutes - 19.7 MBThinking about the people you hire as objects or obstacles to achieve your company goals is poison. Often we venture into the hiring process with the mindset of “how can YOU help ME”. This is wrong in so many ways. Especially if your goal is to fuel the growth of the organization. The truth is, the people you hire could care less about you and your goals. This is why people take your job simply for the paycheck and bounce at the first hint of trouble. Understanding the other person’s pa...

When to Hire Freelancers vs Full Time Talent with Shahar Erez of Stoke Talent
March 11, 2021 19:32 - 21 minutes - 18.4 MBDo you really need a person full time or will a freelancer suffice? Often the need to get work done clouds our vision who we really need. Ask yourself, “what does the business need?” and what is the timing in which the work needs to be done. When you need something quick, you most likely need a freelancer. But know that your explicit communication is the key to successful project completion. Just don’t shortcut the selection process and hire those who get it, want it and can deliver resul...

Remote Interviewing Done Right with Brenna Loury
February 04, 2021 22:24 - 20 minutes - 21.5 MBThe remote interview is still a HUGE challenge for a lot of companies. Especially for those of you who are lacking a formalized process.

Especially if you're a smaller, growing company. Every hiring mistake that your company has made is due to your focus on the wrong ego driven priorities. (Ie: the work to be done, what I think I need, image for the company) Focus on hiring the “WHO” that aligns with the corporate values first and you’ll achieve unbelievable results.
