After seeing Mark Gilroy’s fabulous YouTube video about change, (not the one where he’s singing that song ;) ), I wanted to know more and how recruiters can influence change. 

A self-confessed professional psychology geek, Mark & I had a fascinating conversation that will help recruiters & hiring leaders partner better!

We talked about:

The world has changed and so has the employment branding game. That's why Chad & Cheese have relaunched the Cult Brand series with the help of RecruitmentMarketing.com's Julie Calli. And what better guest to bring on the show than marketing magic man Chris Kneeland of Cult Collective? The group discusses issues around holistic brand,

HR's newly minted seat at the table, branding in a post-pandemic and WFH world, and much, much more.

To say we were giddy about interviewing someone connected to the movie "Wolf of Wall Street" would be the understatement of the year. Yet, here we are. And why is Richard Bronson, a former partner at the "Wolf of Wall Street" firm talking to Chad & Cheese? Turns out he runs a site dedicated to finding employment for former felons called 70MillionJobs.com. It's important work that turns out to be one helluva podcast. Most interestingly, the impact on The Great Resignation as it pertains to job seekers with a criminal record isn't going as anyone expected.

This one's a must-listen. Enjoy!

DE&I continues, thankfully, to be an extremely high profile issue for employers. However, the needle is still not moving quickly enough, and some of the data is shocking. For example, it would still take 200 hundred years to close the race and gender pay gaps at the current rate of progress.

So what can employers do to accelerate the pace of change, and how much can individual recruiters influence diversity in hiring. This week, my guests are Trina Olson and Alfonso Wenker, co-founders of Team Dynamics. Trina and Alfonso work with some well-known organisations to improve their diversity and hiring practices. They have recently authored a book called Hiring Revolution that offers some extremely practical advice on how recruiters can inject DE&I into their organisation's hiring.

In the interview, we discuss:

• Aligning cultural behaviour to values

• Why inequities in hiring and promotion are not a foregone conclusion

• Resume racism 

• Recruiters taking individual responsibility to make change

• Notice, Name and Navigate

• RPDR

• What to do more of, what to do less of and what to stop.

• Onboarding

• How will things develop over the next two years?

We talk with Eric Sydell, EVP of innovation at Modern Hire, a science-based platform with tools that touch multiple steps in the hiring process.

Coming from some good Canadian heritage, we loved talking to an industry legend and the Founder of WorkTech, George Larocque. He brings an optimistic outlook for the next year of work tech investment. 

• 2021 was a banner year in Work Tech investment with over 18 billion invested

• “Unless something breaks, there could be more money than last year”

• George walks us back to the fact that most technology take 5 years to mature and although some seem to spring up suddenly it’s rarely the case. 

• it's not really a prediction if you study the industry, George gives us where work tech investment will follow in the near term. 

Work from home is a thing. Maybe you've heard. This means vendors hoping to support employers with a remote workforce have a lot of tailwinds going in the right direction. However, like most things, there are going to be big winners and some big losers, and everything in between. That brings us to BeRemote, a startup hoping to take advantage of this red hot trend. Do they have what it takes to survive Firing Squad?

Gotta listen to find out.
