The Hidden Operating System Behind Every High-Performing Recruiting Firm with Kelsey Boyd


Listen Later

Is your recruiting desk—or your entire firm—running on chaos instead of systems? You’re not alone. Most recruiters feel the turbulence daily… but the top-performing firms operate differently. They run on an Operating System that eliminates chaos, drives consistent billings, and creates scalable growth.

In this episode, Ben sits down with Kelsey Boyd, a transformational operator who helped overhaul a multi-brand recruiting organization—rebuilding systems, rewriting processes, revamping tech, and implementing EOS to create genuine business momentum. This conversation is a masterclass in turning recruiting chaos into predictable success.
