“We spend 50% of our lives working… What is crazy is that 8 out of 10 people in today's workforce say they don't even feel a connection to their jobs or their employer. Which means that most of us are probably half of our lives feeling disengaged and maybe feeling unfulfilled.”   This is how Charlie Saffro opened her TEDx talk on prioritizing people in your business. As the CEO of a recruiting firm, she gives insightful takes on how a people-first culture can positively impact you and your client's retention and long-term revenue.   Charlie is the CEO of CS Recruiting, which specializes in the Supply Chain, Logistics, and Transportation industries. The company is based in Chicago and recruits nationally. Charlie founded CS Recruiting over a decade ago and has built it from the ground up into a multi-million dollar organization.   She leads a team of 28 talented recruiters, emphasizing a people-first culture.    Episode Outline and Highlights   [02:55] How Charlie fell into recruiting and eventually put up her recruitment firm. [10:46] Winning and completing a project involving hiring 50 people in the first year of business. [14:32] Milestones within the 10-year journey as a founder and CEO. [21:41] Fostering a People-First Culture and its long-term benefits to retention and revenue. [33:58] The four magnets in building a people-first culture. [36:25] Transitioning to and embracing the full CEO role by learning to delegate. [43:47] Keys to developing a strong brand. [53:33] Charlie's perspective on the current market environment and how she responds as a leader.   The Four Magnets in Building a People-First Culture   From a business point of view, a people-focused culture benefits employees and contributes to the organization's long-term success and resilience. Charlie gave very specific and pragmatic initiatives that they implement to engage with their employees. What strategies can you implement to foster a people-first culture in your recruitment firm?    Charlie explains that culture acts like a magnet in attracting the right talent while repelling those who don't align with the company's values. She breaks down this concept into four key "talent magnets":   Walk the Talk: The company should live its values daily, celebrating employees who embody these values, like recognizing "value winners" quarterly. Beyond the Paycheck: This magnet offers more than just a salary; it offers flexibility, benefits, and other tangible and intangible perks. Intentional Connection: This is about fostering genuine relationships within the team, getting to know them beyond their work roles, and maintaining regular check-ins to gauge team happiness. Growth Takes Two: This emphasizes collaboration between employees and leadership on career development, ensuring promotions align with employees' personal goals and conducting "evolution meetings" to discuss future aspirations.   Charlie believes that these magnets help attract and retain the right talent while ensuring a strong and aligned company culture.   Practical Steps to Enhance People Engagement   What steps do you currently take to enhance your team's engagement? Does it need a big budget? I wanted to know the actual actions that Charlie implements from a leadership perspective to further a people-centric environment.  A notable takeaway is how Charlie initiates small, personal gestures of appreciation, like handwritten notes or small gifts, regardless of whether there is no budget allocation for these gestures. These small acts of recognition made a significant impact on employee morale and engagement. Over time, this evolved into a formal appreciation and recognition program within her organization. The program includes a budget for recognizing milestones such as new hires, promotions, anniversaries, and personal achievements like buying a house or having a baby. There's also a "petty cash" fund for impromptu recognition, where any team member can submit a form to acknowledge a colleague who might need a pick-me-up, whether it's sending a gift card, treating them to lunch, or something as simple as giving them their favorite candy (a part of their onboarding process is asking members to share favorite foods or places). These small, thoughtful gestures cost very little and can significantly boost employee morale and foster a strong, people-centered culture. She advocates for sharing these practices with clients, especially those in small businesses, to help them retain their talent by showing genuine appreciation for their employees. Would you apply the same for your team?   How to Develop a Strong Brand While the topic of an engaging culture is certainly most interesting, I also wanted to pick Charlie's brains on building a strong brand and online presence. Charlie is excellent at leveraging her voice through social media and building her brand. She became a recruiter back when LinkedIn was not yet a thing, and she is now utilizing various platforms to build her brand.   You may find the following action items helpful when building your brand:   Start Posting Consistently: Initially, Charlie used LinkedIn like many recruiters—sourcing candidates and building projects without much focus on content creation. However, she began posting content regularly, even though her early posts were generic and received little engagement. Experiment with Content: After years of posting expected content, such as interview tips and salary negotiation advice, Charlie noticed that her posts weren't resonating with her audience. Inspired by a viral TikTok video her son created, she experimented with more personal and relatable content. This shift in approach proved to be a game-changer. Share Personal Stories: The viral success of a family-related post gave Charlie the confidence to open up more about her personal life, including her experiences as a mother and leader. This authenticity helped her connect with her audience on a deeper level and drove business opportunities in unexpected ways. Engage with Your Audience: Charlie found that sharing personal content led to increased engagement, with people reaching out to her with business inquiries and personal messages. This interaction helped her build a community and strengthened her brand's presence. Post Regularly and Stay Inspired: Charlie developed a routine of posting five days a week, always looking for inspiration in her daily life that she could share with her audience. She emphasized the importance of staying consistent and adapting content based on what resonates with her followers.   Charlie Saffro Bio and Contact Info Meet Charlie, a recruitment expert with a passion for human leadership, talent acquisition, employee engagement, company culture, and retention.

Sara Roberts (Bayview Talent and host of Success Unscripted) may not immediately jump out to you as an obvious guest of this podcast. No, she doesn't run a digital CS function nor does she have a rich history in CS.What she does have is her finger on the pulse for growing and scaling CS teams as that is her recruiting agency's specialty. As such, it was a great opportunity to talk about two specific areas: the state of the CS job market today and how to build & scale digital functions.In this fascinating interview we discussed:Being part of the Zenefits growth and the evolution into her establishing Bayview, specifically focused on CS recruitingHiring and the job search freeze are thawingSara's motivation for starting the Success Unscripted PodcastThe importance of being vulnerable and sharing your hard experiences to help others who are doing the sameBuilding and scaling digital teams from a hiring perspective Hiring for digital is not just about putting your Junior CS teams in a scaled team but instead looking for technical resources, marketing people, product…etc.Start by analyzing what systems & people you have. What are the skills gaps in relation to what problems you're trying to solve. That will inform your hiring strategy for digital.For a digital role - you are looking to hire people who can go deep into the data, but can also pull up and see the strategyPractical advice for CSMs looking for their next role: take on projects and prove you can already do the work of that roleFor those looking for work: Focus on the industry you already have experience with which will give you a leg up over other applicants. Focus on the ACV of the target customer that is within your comfort range. Finally, focus on what stage company it is vs. your experience.Don't just send in your resume and call it a day - recruiters are likely not looking at those resumes.

Freight transportation and logistics companies may face lower costs to attract and retain employees now that tighter labor conditions are loosening, which could help margins in 2024. In this Talking Transports podcast, CS Recruiting's CEO and founder Charlie Saffro joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence senior transportation & logistics analyst, to discuss how the labor markets have evolved since the pandemic and what companies can expect this year. The freight economy has been weakening since 2022, as illustrated by the closing of Yellow, a large less-than-truckload carrier, and technology-driven freight broker Convoy, last year. This is leading to weaker labor conditions relative to the national market.

In today's episode of Women In Supply Chain, I'm joined by Charlie Saffro – entrepreneur, industry expert, master networker and mindful leader. Charlie began her career as a marketing account manager, working on big name accounts like Procter & Gamble, PepsiCo and Gatorade. But, as a connector by heart, Charlie found her true calling when she embraced a career in supply chain recruitment. Charlie founded her own firm, CS Recruiting in back in 2010 and has gone from strength to strength, growing the business from a team of one to 40 and boasting an impressive client list, whilst earning some top industry accolades along the way. Today Charlie will be talking to us about her career so far; tackling supply chain labor shortages; creating a culture of connectivity; and why recruitment is both a science, and an art. Plus, she'll be sharing her experiences as a woman in supply chain, as well as her words of advice for all of the women following in her footsteps.   SHOW SPONSOR:   This Women in Supply Chain feature was sponsored by Sifted. As a business dedicated to empowering confidence within the shipping industry, we're proud to support women in supply chain. Sifted is the leading logistics intelligence software, that combines insights with expertise to empower bigger, smarter shipping decisions. As growth and disruptions present ongoing challenges for supply chain leaders, thousands rely on Sifted to set their businesses up for success. Learn more about Sifted here.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [07.12] Charlie's early career in marketing, and her experience of working on big name brands like Proctor and Gamble and PepsiCo. “It feels like it was a different lifetime!... But when I reflect back, it actually makes so much sense that I landed where I am today with those roots.” [08.59] How, and why, Charlie pivoted in her career, away from B2C marketing to logistics HR and recruitment. “Starting very scrappy is what got me, not only interested, but it got me very well-rounded exposure to the industry.” [13.02] Charlie's experience of being entirely self-taught, and the general move, in recruitment, away from a focus simply on education. “We are seeing more and more employers now really emphasizing: ‘We want the right person. We want the personality, we want someone who aligns with our values, who's going to fit in with our culture.” [18.59] Charlie's experience of founding CS Recruiting, whilst raising a family. “Looking back, it was so crazy that I never stopped, but that's what gave me that head start. It was almost like I was competing with myself to take advantage of every spare moment I had to either learn or network or put myself out there.” [24.25] Charlie's perspective on the current recruitment landscape, and how she is tackling key industry challenges within her business. “The market is very confusing right now! We're talking about this recession, we're hearing about layoffs, but yet what we're seeing is that the demand for people is way greater than the supply. There are more jobs than there are qualified, available, interested people.” [28.11] Why Charlie calls herself a master networker, and her top tips for networking success. “Being passive is a big part of networking, finding what you have in common with someone before just trying to sell them something… LinkedIn makes it easy to network, but it also makes it very hard to sift through the garbage to find out who's legit.” [33.55] Charlie's role as the very first Blended Pledge grant recipient, how she used the grant, and the potential impact the Blended program could have on the industry. “There's so much talent out there… and I want to see more females in the industry.” [40.15] From her parents to a young author, Charlie shares her inspirations. [42.15] Charlie's advice for all of the girls and women looking to follow in her footsteps.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   You can connect with Charlie over on LinkedIn.

Charlie Saffro, the President & Founder of CS Recruiting, came on the FreightCaviar Podcast to talk about her career in logistics. Charlie shares the whole backstory behind CS Recruiting, along with advice for employers, and potential candidates. CS Recruiting is one of the largest and best logistics recruiting firms in the US. Interestingly enough, I actually got my previous job thanks to CS. In January 2017, I sent a friend of mine who worked at CS my resume. Within a week, I had 4 job interviews and received 4 job offers. The best thing about all of it is that CS Recruiting is absolutely free for any potential job seeker. CS makes money by charging the companies seeking talent. So, if you are interested in seeking new opportunities (now is the best time - possibly in history), then you must reach out to CS Recruiting.

Charlie Saffro, Founder and Owner of CS Recruiting, believes that if you genuinely care about your team, they will genuinely care about the work. In this episode, she shares how she went from accidentally founding her company to really finding her leadership approach. Much of it is based on open, honest communication and taking the time to get to know people beyond their job titles. As you listen, you'll understand why soft skills like empathy are vital superpowers and be inspired to prioritize self-care and mindfulness.

“I give so much credit to our success to LinkedIn. It is such an amazing and powerful platform,” says Charlie Saffro, Founder and Owner of CS Recruiting. When Charlie unexpectedly started her business, she didn't have a business plan in place or a loan from the bank. Instead, she followed her heart and did what she does best: find connections. Unlike most female founders, you won't find Charlie on Instagram stories. However, you can find her sharing her vulnerability on LinkedIn where she has cultivated over 40k relevant and loyal followers from her industry. As a completely self-taught entrepreneur, Charlie was on her own to build her team and attract the right customers. Her passion for connecting others to the right career opportunities was the catalyst to her LinkedIn success. After realizing the power of LinkedIn, Charlie began to build her network. Rather than linking with anyone, Charlie slowly built a relevant network specific to her industry. Over a decade later, CS Recruiting's talent is unparalleled. As leaders in the supply chain, logistics, and transportation industry, Charlie and her team are widely known for their unique ability to attract talent, increase employee retention, and create meaningful connections along the way. Tune into this episode of DearFound Her… to learn more about the importance of vulnerability, culture, and how to harness the power of LinkedIn so you can become a leader of connection in your industry. Quotes • “94% of our business comes to us from LinkedIn. I've never made a cold call and I've never knocked on a door to give a sales pitch. If you put it out there, people will come.” (20:46-20:58) • “We've embraced the importance of culture. We're in the recruiting business, but we don't want to work with clients that have high turnover rates. We're not after that opening so we can fill it and make some money, we want to work with companies that retain people, treat them right, and then we help them grow.” (24:30-24:48) • “People change jobs because they want more money. But compensation is now fourth or fifth on the list. Recognition, appreciation, a positive supporting culture, flexibility, and trust are the priorities that people are looking for.” (32:21-32:39) • “Pick a focus and stick with it. It's important to stay in your lane.” (38:20-38:23) Connect with Charlie Saffro: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/charliesaffro/ Please don't forget to rate, comment, and subscribe to Dear FoundHer on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts!
