Hello and welcome to Episode 258 of the People Powered Business Podcast!
In today’s episode of the podcast, I’m sharing a 5 step framework to fast track your resume screening process.
The thing is, whether we are short on applicants for a role, or overwhelmed with hundreds of applications, which has been my experience lately, we must screen effectively. What I know to be true is that you can’t outrun a bad hire.
So whether you have 5 applications or 5000 effective screening is essential, and this 5 step framework is super simple to follow and will keep you on track for great hiring choices.
If you’d like to ask questions or start a discussion about note taking, I have an invitation for you.

Hello, and welcome to Episode 256 of the People Powered Business Podcast!
In today’s episode I am bringing you an excerpt from a best of episode of the podcast – today I am sharing my proven framework for effective resume screening.

So whether you have 5 applications or 5000 effective screening is essential, and this 5 step framework is super simple to follow and will keep you on track for great hiring choices.

Hello, and welcome to Episode 249 of the People Powered Business Podcast!
Wow! Isn’t December just the gift that keeps on giving?
In today’s episode I’m bringing you a raw and honest conversation about what I’m noticing right now – because it is utter chaos!
There are big decisions being made, huge reactions, overwhelm and high stress.
Today I share with you that one of my secret super powers is seeing patterns – seeing patterns in lots of ways, but particularly around patterns of behaviour.
What I see is that there are often common themes, and when I see them showing up, I know it’s not just these few people I might have spoken to that week, it’s a broader trend.
What I’m seeing right now is quite high stress – zero tolerance, lack of resilience. I’m seeing successful business owners wanting to fire their whole team and just throw it all in. It’s very reactive, not responsive, not proactive. And there are lots...
