Chris Deals With It

My guest today is Andrew Stahl, who founded his Executive Recruiting firm in 2014. This year, his firm celebrates ten years of service to the global rail industry. I’m proud to have been counted among their many clients, having their help to land a previous, but wonderful position at a firm that fit my skills, personality, and career aspirations at the time.

Andrew and I have a two-part conversation. This episode introduces the ins & outs of working with a recruiting firm. We learn about the important role they play in railroading and other industries. We’ll take into account the perspectives of candidate, recruiter, and employer.

Then in Episode 62, we explore the amazing industry of railroading and public transit where we’ve both enjoyed rewarding careers.

Today I’m getting geometric about how I think about systems. The more angles you have in a system, the harder it becomes for one single point within it to affect the balance point of the entire system. It’s an analogy applicable to many things. It can help us avoid binary thinking and advocate for more diversity of opinions and experiences.

I’ve been struggling to wrap my head around busyness. It seems unavoidable in our current culture. Everyone overworked, stressed out, to the point where they’re virtue signaling about how much is on their plates.

This is a problem, and one that I can likely only solve for myself. Busyness fractures my focus, prevents me from achieving greater heights with my thoughts and actions.

I’ve been a regular guest on the Code Play Culture podcast. On a recent episode about navigating ideas, around the 39 minute mark, we touched on what it means to consider our current work the last time we would get to create.

On my last episode, #53, I unpacked the mentality of “This is the last…”. On today’s, I’m exploring its opposite: Looking at what creativity, and life more generally, look like with a mentality of “This is the first…”
