04:19 - AI can speed up shortlisting, but it also magnifies errors. Without solid business management, mistakes scale faster.

08:00 - Recruitment isn’t just filling roles. It’s about people’s futures, and the business model innovation that comes from the right team.

10:28 - Too many metrics create noise, not clarity. A business dashboard should highlight what truly drives the business.
