Join us in The BreakLine Arena as we unpack the topic of Fear Based Decision Making as it relates to evaluating candidates from "non-traditional" backgrounds. In this episode, our team will share industry insights and best practices to equip leaders, hiring managers, and recruiters with additional tools to embrace a more Opportunity Based hiring approach.

Key insights from this conversation include:

• Excellence is transferrable. High performers with a demonstrated track record of excellence tend to shine in multiple ways across multiple environments.

• Opportunity based decision making leads to value creation. Study after study show that diverse teams outperform homogeneous teams. Candidates from non-traditional backgrounds often represent a "talent arbitrage" opportunity, helping organizations unlock innovation and drive growth.

• There's no shortage of diverse talent, there's a shortage of translators. How are decision makers within your organization being equipped to gain a deeper understanding of the experiences of candidates from "non-traditional" backgrounds? Our team at BreakLine serves as a resource, empowering decision makers to identify and translate the professional experiences of high performers from non-traditional backgrounds.
