Jesus D. "Jesse" Hernandez Jr is the Founder of Depth Builder LLC, who helps leaders deepen their communication skills and build trust through their improvement initiatives. Jesse does this by shining a light on their blind spots, and teaching them how to adjust their leadership approach to ensure "buy in" amongst their employees.

Experiencing construction business problems from the perspective of an installer, a field leader, a trade contractor, a General Contractor and an owner's Rep has helped Jesse understand that we are more alike than we are different. Being a witness to people discovering their agency and leaders contributing to that is what brings him fulfillment.

His path in the professional space and 7+ years of sobriety has helped Jesse meet people where they are at and get them unstuck. The key is in serving others and helping folks leverage their influence and formal authority in making the work better for the men and women who are doing the work. Jesse's 5S in Relationships Livestream Experiment revealed to him that there is a gap in connection amongst construction professionals. This led him to co-author the book Lean & Love 5S Love Letters and co-host The NoBS with Jen and Jess Podcast, where he is having imperfect conversations about the human side of work.

These efforts helped Jesse appreciate the power of vulnerability. Jesse has also written Becoming the Promise You are Intended to Be where readers can find glimpses of themselves in the stories he shares and discover the path to living up to the promise they are Intended to fulfill. Seeing the impact these works are having have lit a fire in Jesse to help people practice vulnerability and deepen their connection with the folks they spend the most time with. Jesse wants to serve our listeners with the idea that focusing on the person in front of us is the best way to Expand their Influence.

The key to this is listening and more specifically asking interested questions. He wants to introduce the listeners two a couple of cheat codes (air time & first response) that they can put into practice immediately.

Steve Cadigan is a pioneer in reimagining how organizations attract, develop, and unleash talent in the modern economy. As founder of Cadigan Talent Ventures, he works deeply with leaders on complex, critical talent strategies—challenging conventional thinking and provoking breakthrough approaches for organizations navigating the future of work.

As the architect of LinkedIn's talent strategy during its hypergrowth from 400 to 4,000 employees, Steve served as the company's first Chief Human Resources Officer from 2009 to 2012, guiding the company through its IPO and building the foundation that fueled its evolution into the powerhouse it is today. That experience, combined with over 25 years leading HR across diverse industries—including Cisco Systems, Electronic Arts, and ESPRIT—gives him a unique vantage point for provoking new thinking about how organizations create value through their people.

Today, Steve's primary work involves providing strategic counsel at every level—from individual companies to entire industries to national governments. He partners with organizations including Google, Cisco, Intel, Salesforce, the BBC, the City of Lisbon Portugal, Manchester United Football Club, and the Royal Bank of Scotland on their most pressing talent challenges. Top-tier venture capital and consulting firms such as Andreessen Horowitz, KKR, McKinsey & Company, and Deloitte regularly retain him to work alongside their portfolio companies and clients on complex talent strategy. He serves on the boards of three companies spanning the U.S., Canada, and Africa, advises twelve dynamic companies navigating critical inflection points, and works with countries including Portugal and Colombia on national talent strategies.

Throughout his career, the teams, cultures, and organizations Steve has built have been recognized as exceptional, "world-class" performers by the Wall Street Journal and Fortune Magazine. He has been named a Top 100 Global Thought Leader in HR and Talent by PeopleHum every year since 2021.

In addition to his advisory work, Steve is a sought-after speaker at international conferences and teaches at major universities around the world. He has been featured regularly on Bloomberg West, CBS, and CNBC. In 2021, he received the honor of delivering commencement addresses to MBA graduates at both Stanford University and the University of San Francisco—a feat he repeated at USF, challenging emerging leaders to rethink traditional career paradigms. Stanford University developed a graduate-level course based on his cultural innovations at LinkedIn, cementing his influence on how the next generation of leaders thinks about building high-performing organizations.

His book, Workquake: Embracing the Aftershocks of COVID-19 to Create a Better Model of Working, became a #1 Amazon Hot New Release upon its August 2021 publication and captures his contrarian perspective on workplace evolution.

What sets Steve apart is that he has lived deep inside the world of work as both employee and employer. He has interviewed, hired, coached, and mentored thousands of employees and leaders across multiple industries and geographies—from his early years living in Singapore and Canada to his current base in California. This lived experience gives him a unique and authoritative point of view, essential to all discussions about the future of work.

Steve graduated from Wesleyan University with a BA in History and received a Master's Degree in HR & Organization Development from the University of San Francisco.
