People-first companies prioritize their people and foster a culture of hiring. They understand that people are their most valuable asset, so they treat all their people practices — especially hiring — as strategic, rather than administrative, functions. On the Greenhouse podcast: People-first, join host Donald Knight, Chief People Officer at Greenhouse, as he sits down with individuals at innovative organizations to discover how these companies prioritize their people.

In this episode, Donald is joined by Brian Baker, Chief People Officer at Teneo, and Stephanie Kramer, Chief Human Resources Officer at L’Oréal USA to discuss how a combination of inclusion, diversity and intention helps drive business success. We’ll also talk about the importance of developing good leaders, not just good products — and why leaders should actively seek feedback from their teammates.
