Join us for a thought-provoking conversation with Amsterdam-based philosopher Karim Benammar, who's challenging the very foundations of how we recruit and think about talent.

In this episode, Karim shares his radical ideas about hiring – from why you should consider candidates who 'hate' your company to why university degrees might be completely irrelevant. Drawing on his international background, which spans England, America, Japan, and the Netherlands, as well as his experience working with the UN, Karim offers a fresh philosophical perspective on age-old HR problems.

What you'll discover:

- Why traditional CVs, interviews, and experience requirements are failing us

- The "dating analogy" that reveals what's wrong with job interviews

- How to shift from scarcity thinking to abundance thinking in recruitment

- Why hiring people who disagree with you might be your best strategy

- Practical experiments you can try in your next hiring process

Whether you're an HR professional frustrated with traditional methods, a leader looking to build more diverse teams, or simply someone curious about questioning established systems, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and offer new ways of thinking about human potential.

Karim Benammar, PhD, is an independent philosopher specializing in transformative thinking. Author of "Abundance" and "Reframing – The Art of Thinking Differently," he helps organizations question their fundamental assumptions through workshops and lectures across Europe.
