Strivin & Thrivin Ep19. Jeff Waldman - Founder & Principal at ScaleHR
Jeff Waldman, Founder of ScaleHR joins us on the Strivin & Thrivin podcast this week, to discuss the career journey that got him to where he is today.
With over 20 years in the HR industry, Jeff has an HR background that started in business and so has always had a business-orientated mindset. As it stands, Jeff is currently the Founder, Principal of a new company called ScaleHR, a company that works with growing small-medium businesses to help them scale their people operations and brand awareness.
Jeff isn’t someone who fell into HR or recruitment but rather he pursued it early doors when studying for his business degree. The strategies involved in developing effective workforces and driving good business results is what pulled him in. Retrospectively speaking, he believes his career trajectory hasn’t been based on titles and salary, but rather on the role and responsibilities.
“Don't chase money because money will come later on, chase the opportunity”
As we dive into Jeff’s career history, he shares his best and worst moments, encouraging listeners to trust their gut instincts and find companies and environments in which they can thrive. Now working for himself we discuss the importance of structure, staying abreast of everything in your industry and filtering out what’s applicable and relevant to you and your role.
In the HR industry, things are changing constantly and outdated information can quickly become conflicting with new information. As we learn more about this and the importance of maintaining good relationships with lawyers as you work hand-in-hand so often in HR, we get a great understanding of Jeff’s professional approach to work.
During this recording, Jeff shares his approach to mentoring, having been a mentor to others for a few years now, and how he aspires to lead his mentees to the best outcomes. We learn how a strategic approach to being a mentor helps drive the best results and how rewarding it is for both mentee and mentor.
