Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Talent. While we're seeing a growing awareness of ageism, the reality is that it is regularly ignored as an inclusion factor. The impact of this is staggering. AARP estimates that ageism costs the US economy $850 billion in lost GDP annually, and research shows that intergenerational teams consistently outperform age-segregated ones in terms of productivity and innovation. Yet, unlike other forms of discrimination, age bias is openly accepted in hiring via things like age-coded job descriptions and ATS systems that filter by graduation dates. So what will it take for organizations to recognize that age discrimination isn't just morally wrong - it's actively destroying their competitive advantage? My guest this week is Maureen Clough, host of the 'It Gets Late Early' podcast and advocate against ageism on a mission to expose this universal form of discrimination. In our conversation, she reveals practical strategies for both employers and job seekers to combat age bias while building truly inclusive workplaces that work for everyone. In the interview, we discuss: Is ageism getting worse? The $850 billion impact on GDP How ageism is baked into some recruiting processes Why proving age discrimination in the US is so difficult. What should TA do to combat ageism? The power of intergenerational teams and mentorship AI's impact on entry-level jobs and Gen Z's involuntary disconnection from the workplace Strategies for older job seekers What should the future look like?

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Talent and Foresight. We're no longer dealing with a world that's simply volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous - we've arguably entered something far more challenging: a reality that's brittle, anxious, nonlinear, and incomprehensible. This shift is turning traditional workforce planning completely on its head. Three-year strategic plans become meaningless when entire job categories disappear in months, when AI capabilities jump overnight, and when market conditions change faster than planning cycles can adapt. So how can employers develop effective talent strategies in highly uncertain times, and how might talent acquisition step up to take a strategic role? My guest this week is Toby Culshaw, VP of Strategy for Talent Intelligence at Lightcast. In our conversation, Toby explains how real-time talent intelligence is needed to build talent strategies that can respond to rapid change and why TA teams are uniquely positioned as invaluable sources of business intelligence. In the interview, we discuss: Moving from a VUCA world to a BANI world Dramatic change with significant compound effects The implications for long-term planning Why it is now easier to better align TA with workforce planning Signals and real-time talent intelligence The shortening half-life of job skills The anxious workforce Surfacing insights from TA War gaming and scenario planning The importance of data What might the future look like?

Unlocking Divine Potential Through Positive Memory and Imagination I. Introduction and Core Thesis The central message of this sermon revolves around the idea that believers possess everything they need for "divine healing, divine deliverance, favor, prosperity, perfection" within their spirit, which is where the Holy Ghost resides. The key to "releasing everything you have in your spirit" and experiencing a "forceful, powerful, and supernatural" life is a positive and God-centered use of memory and imagination. The speaker emphasizes that God desires to teach believers how to utilize these faculties in alignment with His thinking, moving away from dwelling on past regrets or future anxieties. II. Key Concepts and Themes A. The Spirit as the Source of All Divine Provision Indwelling of the Holy Spirit: The Holy Ghost, healing, the voice of God, and the power of the resurrection all reside "in your spirit." "Everything You Need": Citing 2 Peter 1, the sermon asserts, "I've given you everything you need for life and godliness. Well, I can tell you it's all in your spirit. Favor, prosperity, perfection, it's all there." Rivers of Living Water: The goal is to move from a "trickle and a drip" to a "forceful, powerful, and supernatural" flow, referencing Jesus' statement about "rivers of living water" flowing from one's "belly" (spirit). B. The Power of Memory and Imagination (Hebrew: Yet) Positive Memory as a Key: A significant portion of the sermon highlights the importance of using memory "in a positive way." This is presented as "a real key to releasing everything you have in your spirit." Avoiding "What-ifs" and "If-onlys": The speaker strongly discourages living in past regrets or hypothetical scenarios ("if only I would have done this," "what if I was born into a rich family"). "God is a today God." Imagination as Mental Image and Faith's Partner:The Hebrew word yet (translated as "thoughts" in 1 Chronicles 29:18 and "frame" in Psalm 139:15) is presented as referring to imagination. Imagination is defined as "the power of forming a mental image that is not yet present." It is directly linked to faith and hope: "This is what faith is. Faith is being sure of what you hope for. Hope is like the switch that turns on faith... Faith works with hope to produce a positive image of yourself. You're not going to be healed unless you see yourself in your mind healed." Vision and Purpose: "Where there is no vision, the people perish." God desires everyone to have a "purpose in life, a vision, some type of a calling." This ties back to the Catholic Catechism's purpose for humanity: "to know him, to love him, and to serve him in this world." C. Communion as a Tool for Positive Memory and Healing Remembering Christ's Sacrifice: Taking communion is presented as an act of remembering Jesus' "sacrifice," "finished works," and the reality of being "forgiven... healed... whole." Healing is the Children's Bread: The sermon emphasizes that "healing is the children's bread," citing the Corinthians' premature deaths due to their inability to "discern the body of the Lord" as healing. Practical Application: Communion can be taken "every day," even "three times a day," and does not require a church setting. Each instance has a "tangible presence of God" and "puts you in a status of Christ consciousness, not sin consciousness." Testimony of Healing: The speaker shares a personal testimony of his daughter's tumor disappearing after one cancer treatment, attributing it to taking communion and remembering Jesus' finished work. D. The Battle of the Mind and Overcoming Negative Imagination/Strongholds Imagination's Dual Nature: While powerful for good, imagination can be used negatively (e.g., Noah's time, Tower of Babel). Strongholds and Casting Down Imaginations: Strongholds are "something in your mind that occupies your thoughts, something that's just all consuming" (e.g., fear, hatred, anger). The battle is in the mind, and believers are called to "pulling down of strongholds... casting down imaginations... bringing thought every thought into captivity to obedience to Christ" (2 Corinthians 10:4-5). Paul's Example of Forgetting the Past: Paul, despite his past as a murderer of Christians, exemplified forgetting "about the things that are behind" and pressing forward, knowing he was forgiven. Thinking Like God: "As a man thinks in his heart, so he is." Believers are encouraged to "begin to think the way God thinks" by focusing on "whatsoever things are true, are noble, are lovely, are good, are excellent, are praiseworthy" (Philippians 4:8) and setting their minds "on things above, not on the things of the earth" (Colossians 3:1-2). Controlling Emotions through Positive Memory: Recalling a negative memory (like an Italian family member's 30-year grudge) illustrates how negative memories control emotions. Thanksgiving is presented as a powerful tool: "Thanksgiving will free you from every toxic emotion." God's Perspective on Memory: "You will keep him in perfect peace. Him whose mind [imagination] is stayed or focused on you." God's thoughts are not our thoughts; His ways are higher (Isaiah 55). E. God's New Covenant and His Forgiving Nature Grace, Mercy, Forgiveness: Under the New Covenant, God's nature is characterized by "grace," "mercy," and "forgiveness." The law made people "sin conscious"; Jesus made us "grace conscious" and "Christ conscious." God's Forgiveness of Sin: God's forgiveness is complete and eternal. "I will be merciful to their unrighteousness... and their sins, and their lawless deeds, I will remember no more." This means God "blotted it out of his memory." God Remembers Only the Good: At the judgment seat of Christ, God will remember only the "gold, with silver, and with precious stones" (redemptive, blessing actions) and burn away the "wood, hay, and stubble" (negative things). Believers are encouraged to emulate this and "remember only the good things of the past." God's Unconditional Love: "Father, you love them [disciples], As much as you love me." God's love is "beyond our belief, beyond our imagination." F. God's Foresight and Orchestration of Life Predestined Purpose: Psalm 139:15-16 is interpreted to mean that God "wrote everything in a book before you were born." He has "perfect foreknowledge without control," knowing when a person will choose Him and orchestrating their life accordingly. Imitating God: Believers are called to "be imitators of God as his dear children and walk in love as Christ also has loved us" (Ephesians 5:1). This means thinking and acting like Him. G. New Testament Laws (Laws of the Spirit) The sermon clarifies that "we're not under the law" of the Old Testament (10 Commandments, dietary laws, Sabbath), as they were "nailed to the cross." Instead, there are New Testament "laws" written in the mind and heart: Law of Love: "Love one another as I have already loved you" (John 13). Laws of Giving: "Give and it shall be given unto you." God desires prosperity to be a blessing to others. Law of Liberty: "Stand fast in the liberty where Christ has set us free." Not burdened by the "yoke of slavery." Law of Faith: (Romans 3:28) Not "name it and claim it." "Faith without works is dead." It requires action. Based on God's promises. Believing "they've received before you even get it." Looks back at "the finished work of Christ. It's already done." God speaks from the "inside out," not the "outside in," often through "thoughts and impressions" in one's own "vernacular." "Faith has a voice. It speaks. It's not silent. It speaks. It declares." Believers should "speak to the problem," not just tell God about it. H. Benefits of the New Covenant (Psalm 103 as Prophecy) Psalm 103 is presented as a prophetic psalm about the "finished work of Christ," not fully applicable to David in his time. "Don't forget all his benefits":"Who forgives all your iniquities." (Unlike the Old Testament's temporal forgiveness). "Who heals all your diseases." (Jesus' stripes healed us; healing is part of the atonement, "it's in your spirit"). "Who redeems your life from destruction." (Crossing from death to life; spirit is "impenetrable" by sin). "Who crowns you with loving kindness, which is the word hesed, which is grace. And he crowns you with mercy." Goodness and mercy "shall follow me all the days of my life." "Who satisfies your mouth with good things; so that your youth is renewed like an eagle's." This refers to speaking life and experiencing renewed strength, effortlessly soaring like an eagle by "waiting upon the Lord." III. Practical Applications and Call to Action Daily Communion: Actively engage in communion as a daily practice to remember Christ's finished work and activate healing. Control Your Thoughts: Be intentional about focusing your mind on God's truth, positive images, and His character. Cast down negative imaginations and strongholds. Practice Thanksgiving: Cultivate a spirit of gratitude to overcome toxic emotions. Speak to Your Problems: Use your voice to declare God's will and truth over challenging situations, not just tell God about them. Live in the Present: Embrace the "I am" nature of God by focusing on "this moment" rather than past regrets or future fears. Document God's Work: Keep a "book of remembrance" of all the times God has supernaturally intersected your life. Seek Help When Needed: While God is supernatural, if struggling for years, seek help from those with spiritual gifts (visions, prophetic, word of knowledge) who can "lift you from the realm of doubt into a point of reception." IV. Distinguishing the Old and New Covenants The sermon frequently contrasts the Old Testament (law, temporary forgiveness, sin consciousness, God not forgiving all iniquities/healing all diseases) with the New Testament (grace, permanent forgiveness, Christ consciousness, complete healing, God's indwelling in the spirit). This distinction is crucial to understanding the believer's current position and access to divine power.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop speaks with futurist Richard Yonck about the profound implications of our accelerating relationship with technology. Together, they explore the emergence of emotionally intelligent machines, the nuances of anticipatory systems, and how narrative frameworks help societies prepare for possible futures. Richard unpacks the role of emotion in AI and why cultivating foresight is essential in an age of rapid disruption.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – The episode opens with Richard Yonck introducing the concept of artificial emotional intelligence and why it matters for the future of human-machine interaction.05:00 – The discussion moves to anticipatory systems, exploring how technologies can be designed to predict and respond to future conditions.10:00 – Richard explains how narrative foresight helps individuals and societies prepare for possible futures, emphasizing the power of storytelling in shaping collective imagination.15:00 – A deeper look into affective computing, with examples of how machines are learning to detect and simulate emotional states to improve user experience.20:00 – The conversation touches on the role of emotion in intelligence, challenging the misconception that emotion is the opposite of logic.25:00 – Richard outlines how technological disruption can mirror societal values and blind spots, urging more thoughtful design.30:00 – The focus shifts to long-term thinking, highlighting how future-oriented education and leadership are vital in an age of rapid change.35:00 – Closing thoughts center around the evolution of human-technology partnerships, stressing the need for ethical, emotionally aware systems to support a thriving future.Key InsightsEmotion as a Computational Frontier: Richard Yonck highlights that as we push the boundaries of artificial intelligence, the next significant frontier involves enabling machines to understand, interpret, and possibly simulate emotions. This capacity isn't just a novelty—it plays a crucial role in how machines and humans interact, influencing trust, empathy, and cooperation in increasingly digital environments.The Importance of Anticipatory Systems: One of the core ideas explored is the concept of anticipatory systems—those that can predict and react to future conditions. Richard emphasizes how building such foresight into our technologies, and even into our societal structures, is vital in managing the complexity and volatility of the modern world. It's not just about responding to the future, but actively shaping it.Narrative as a Tool for Foresight: The discussion underscores that storytelling isn't just entertainment—it's a powerful instrument for exploring and communicating possible futures. By framing future scenarios as narratives, we can emotionally and cognitively engage with potential outcomes, fostering a deeper understanding and preparedness across different segments of society.Emotions as Integral to Intelligence: Contrary to the view that emotion impairs rationality, Richard points out that emotions are essential to decision-making and intelligence. They help prioritize actions and signal what matters. Bringing this understanding into AI development could result in systems that more effectively collaborate with humans, particularly in roles requiring empathy and nuanced social judgment.Technology as a Mirror of Humanity: A recurring insight is that the technologies we create ultimately reflect our values, assumptions, and blind spots. Emotionally intelligent machines won't just serve us—they'll embody our understanding of ourselves. This raises profound ethical questions about what we choose to model and how these choices shape future interactions.Urgency of Long-Term Thinking: The conversation brings to light how short-termism is a critical vulnerability in current systems—economic, political, and technological. Richard advocates for integrating long-term thinking into how we design and deploy innovations, suggesting that futures literacy should be a core skill in education and leadership.Evolutionary Partnership Between Humans and Machines: Lastly, Richard describes the trajectory of human-technology interaction not as domination or subservience, but as an evolving partnership. This partnership will require emotional nuance, foresight, and ethical maturity if we're to co-evolve in ways that support human flourishing and planetary stability.Contact InformationRichard Yonck's LinkedIn

Hi there, welcome to episode 711 of Recruiting Future with me, Matt Alder. Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Talent and Technology. The recruitment technology landscape is experiencing a perfect storm. Perfect match candidates aren't completing applications due to frustrating processes. At the same time, recruiters are being overwhelmed by candidates using AI tools to generate thousands of low-quality submissions. Traditional matching algorithms provide limited transparency into the decision-making process, thereby creating legal and compliance risks. Meanwhile, cost-per-application models continue to charge for clicks rather than actual conversions, leaving employers paying for candidates who never complete the process. How can TA teams navigate this impossible environment while improving outcomes for everyone involved? My guests this week are Simon Van Hijfte, Marketing Manager at Adecco Belgium, and Ritu Mohanka, CEO at VONQ. Simon shares how Adecco is transforming their recruitment process with AI agents and the impressive results they're achieving - from improved candidate satisfaction to enhanced recruiter efficiency. We also all discuss the shift from opaque matching systems to transparent point-based scoring, how AI agents are solving the broken candidate experience, and why this people-first approach is delivering better business outcomes across the board. Why is the candidate experience broken? The impact of candidates using AI Implementing a people-first approach supported by AI Recruter Enablement vi AI Agents What do the candidates think? Moving from matching to scoring and explainable decision making Spotting transferable skills Vonq's innovative CPA+ model What results has Adecco been getting?

Global Food Policy Report IFPRI Policy Seminar 2025 Global Food Policy Report | Food Policy: Lessons and Priorities for a Changing World May 28, 2025 Over the last 50 years, the world's food systems have evolved tremendously amid major economic, environmental, and social changes. Throughout this period, policy research has played a critical role in providing evidence and analysis to inform decision-making that supports agricultural growth, better livelihoods, and improved food security, nutrition, and well-being for all. IFPRI's 2025 Global Food Policy Report—a special edition marking the Institute's 50th anniversary. This year's flagship report examines the evolution and impact of food policy research and assesses how it can better equip policymakers to meet future challenges and opportunities. Despite meaningful progress over the last half-century, conflict, climate change, rising inequality, and geopolitical tensions remain major challenges to reducing poverty, hunger, and malnutrition. As we approach 2050, policy research and analysis will be essential to help build sustainable healthy food systems in this changing world. Thematic presentations from IFPRI's leading researchers will explore the role of evidence in shaping policies over the past 50 years, as well as the potential for research to address emerging challenges and opportunities. A keynote lecture by Michael Kremer, Chair of the Innovation Commission and joint winner of the 2019 Economics Nobel Prize, will address innovations for the future. Following these remarks, a distinguished panel of experts will discuss priorities for policy research in the decades to come.

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about Technology. The AI transformation in recruiting presents both unprecedented opportunities and significant threats. It's a complex situation where the same technology that promises to solve long-standing recruiting challenges is also creating new ones. The use of AI by candidates is driving up application numbers, and Gartner predicts that by 2028, one in four job applications will be fake or fraudulent. So, how can employers ensure they are reaping the benefits of using AI in the hiring process while effectively mitigating the risks? My guest this week is Meredith Johnson, Chief Product Officer at Greenhouse. In our conversation, Meredith shares her insights on building ethical AI systems that enhance rather than replace human judgment. We discuss creating fraud detection capabilities that protect hiring quality and designing embedded AI experiences that maintain the transparency and trust required for great hiring. In the interview, we discuss: Maximizing AI benefits while reducing risks Building C-suite support for AI investments Embedding AI within existing workflows Detecting and filtering fraudulent applications Talent filtering, interview question generation, and sentiment analysis Maintaining ethics and reducing bias Building transparency into the candidate experience What does the future of TA look like?

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about talent. Economic uncertainty and disruption has reached a whole new level in 2025, with companies freezing hiring plans and candidates hesitating to make career moves. But if talent attraction strategies fail during market volatility, how can organizations that need scarce and specialized talent survive and thrive? So, when candidate markets are tight, how can TA teams turn uncertainty into opportunity? My guest this week is Dave Napeloni, Senior Vice President of Global Life Sciences at Korn Ferry. Dave's team is helping life sciences companies navigate talent scarcity by transforming how they engage with candidates during economic disruption. Dave has valuable insights to share, on effective talent engagement and pipeline building, that are changing how organizations compete for talent in these uncertain times. In the interview, we discuss The talent market challenges in Life Sciences Dealing with long-term uncertainty The impact on candidate behavior How successful companies are using volatility as a competitive advantage The critical importance of EVPs and employer branding Building candidate engagement through purpose-driven messaging Extending the role of TA beyond onboarding and into talent management How AI can radically improve the candidate experience What the future might look like Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Recruiting Future is a podcast designed to help Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about technology. Most HR tech projects end in disappointment because organizations focus all their energy on implementation rather than adoption. If successful transformation is dependent on what happens after the go-live date, how can employers build sustainable tech adoption that delivers lasting business value? My guest this week is Melissa Hojwall, Global HR Tech Leader at H&M. H&M has over 100,000 employees, the majority of whom are frontline workers, making internal tech adoption both challenging and high impact. In conversation, Melissa talks about the strategies around implementation, adoption, and continuous change management that help make TA and HR Tech projects successful. In the interview, we discuss: HR Digitisation at H&M How AI can solve TA & HR challenges Predictive analytics The skills needed to get the right balance between humans and AI Tech adoption and change agility Investing in what happens after the go-live date Using resistance as a superpower Finding and showcasing the benefits to the bottom line Disrupting how we interface with technology What does the future of HR Tech look like?

Charting Your Course: A Business Navigation System That Aligns Strategy, Intuition & Purpose In this episode, we dive deep with Tim Dwyer, a visionary who has spent over three decades developing a true "Google Maps for business"—a navigation system that integrates logical strategy, heart-centered leadership, and deep intuition. Tim's entrepreneurial spark ignited at age 12 during a petrol strike in Australia, selling coffee to stranded drivers. That ingenuity evolved into a career dedicated to helping leaders and organizations find their true north in complex business environments. Emotional Intelligence: The Leadership Edge We Can't Ignore Tim and I explore how tapping into our emotional intelligence is not just a personal growth strategy—it's essential for leadership effectiveness. When decisions flow from inner alignment, clarity and momentum follow. When there's chaos? That's your signpost that something's off. Tim shares his emotional mapping system, while I add insight on how untrained managers often default to poor leadership patterns due to lack of emotional grounding and practical guidance. Emotional Ownership: The Cornerstone of Healthy Work Cultures We take an honest look at the drama that unfolds when leaders deflect emotional responsibility. Tim breaks down how full ownership of our emotional responses dismantles blame and invites maturity into the workplace. I couldn't agree more—teams thrive when leaders stop pointing fingers and start showing up with accountability and self-awareness. Foresight in Leadership: Seeing the Iceberg Before You Hit It I share a recent conversation with an organization considering a bold move they may not be ready for—an all-too-common scenario. Using an oceanic analogy, I explain why leaders must develop foresight to navigate risk and avoid future burnout. It's not about playing it safe—it's about making sure your ship is seaworthy before you launch into deeper waters. Capability Development: Growing Beyond Your Comfort Zone Tim outlines the predictable stages of business growth and the leadership capacity needed at each level. Whether you're leading a team of 10 or scaling to 1,000, the same principles apply: sharpen your skills, solidify your culture, and develop internal navigational systems that support sustainable growth. And yes, this applies whether your team is made up of employees, freelancers, or AI tools—culture and capability remain your anchors. Curiosity, Reflection & Purpose: A Blueprint for Leadership Renewal We talk about the often-overlooked power of self-reflection. I encourage listeners—whether you're on the front lines or in the C-suite—to step back, get curious, and revisit past experiences with grace, not judgment. The goal? To realign with your purpose and reignite your leadership impact. Distraction is the disease—curiosity is the cure. Authentic Culture: More Than Ping-Pong Tables and Mission Statements Tim shares a powerful case study of a software company that had great perks but lacked true cultural alignment. Once the leadership reconnected with their original vision and re-established meaningful cultural agreements, collaboration and energy returned. The result? A culture that magnetized both top talent and ideal customers. As I often say—culture isn't what you write on the wall, it's how your people feel every day they walk through the door. Tim's Upcoming Book: A Must-Read for Every Leader Navigating Change We wrap with a preview of Tim's upcoming book, launching August 2025. Packed with stories, case studies, and actionable strategies, this book is designed for businesses of every size—from startups to scaling giants. You can pre-order your copy now at tolemy.com. If you're serious about leading with clarity and growing without losing your soul, this one's for you.
Recruiting Future is a podcast designed to help Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about talent and technology. Many employers are facing an increasing problem with candidates' use of AI. Along with dramatically increasing application numbers, AI tools are, in some cases, allowing potentially unsuitable candidates to jump to the front of the queue, endangering the integrity of the recruiting process. One potential answer to this challenge is to deploy science-based psychometric testing much earlier in the process than has traditionally been the case. So, how should assessment tools and technologies evolve to combine scientific robustness, candidate engagement, and resilience against AI manipulation My guest this week is Alan Bourne, Partner at Omatti and an expert in assessment innovation. Alan highlights the issues with legacy assessment tools and sets out a blueprint for transformation that embraces AI to enhance both the candidate experience and the predictive accuracy of the tools. We also discuss the role of assessment in the move to skills organisations. In the interview, we discuss: The real impact of candidates using AI Why resumes & interviews are the least effective and least fair way of assessment Defensive proctoring versus proactive innovation Using AI to develop immersive, simulation-based assessments Getting the right balance between science and engagement The progress of skills-based hiring The danger of just replacing experience-based CVs with experience-based skills What will the future look like?

Recruiting Future is the podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. Skills shortages in emerging technologies have reached critical levels, with companies all fishing in the same tiny talent pool for experienced professionals. But if these technologies are relatively new, why assume only experienced talent can work with them? In such fast-moving industries, how can companies develop their early career hiring strategies to ensure they get net new talent who can be productive immediately? My guest this week is Tan Moorthy, CEO of Revature. Revature is helping employers build pipelines of entry-level talent by giving high-potential hires the training and development they need to be effective from their first day. In our conversation, Tan gives us an insight into a structured approach to identifying, developing, and deploying new talent, which is transforming how organizations solve their tech talent shortages. In the interview, we discuss: Are employers looking at tech skill shortages through the wrong lens? The ABCD of in-demand skills (AI, big data, cloud, digital) AI Native entry-level talent Critical thinking and problem solving What employers get wrong about upskilling Cohorts, structure, and impact metrics Talent as a C-Suite priority The process to identify, develop, and deploy net new talent The role of technology and data Focusing humans on unique human skills What does the future look like Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Celebrating 10 years of Recruiting Future! Over the last 10 years, I've interviewed hundreds of TA Leaders as well as CEOs, thought leaders, and the people building the technology that drives the industry forward. Back in 2015, we thought the pace of change was super fast and that the level of disruption was off the scale with social and mobile technologies reshaping how we communicated. In some ways, we might think it was impossible back then to imagine the world we live in now, but many of the changes we see in TA today have been in the works for a long time. The speed of change in talent acquisition is governed by the tension between organizational inertia, which slows things down, and external events like the pandemic, which can cause things to move at lightning-fast speeds. The Generative AI revolution is most definitely in the latter category. We are on the cusp of the most significant changes to TA and recruiting we have ever seen. So, as a TA Leader, how do you manage that change and make sure you and your organization are fit for the future? Over the last few months, I've been using the power of AI to unlock the Recruiting Future archive and model the mindset and behaviours of the most successful TA leaders that I've interviewed. People who have changed how their organizations think about talent, who thrive on disruption as a catalyst for positive change, and who know how to use technology to enable their vision. These leaders all have four things in common. They use foresight to understand and shape the future, they build influence with the most senior stakeholders in their organisation, they think different to create innovative talent strategies and they use the impact of new technologies to accelerate change. Foresight, Influence, Talent and Technology = Fitt This episode features clips from interviews with two TA leaders, two CHROs, a Behavioural Scientist, and a Futurist talking about these four key areas and what you and your teams can do to be fit for the future. Featuring: Laszlo Bock, former CHRO at Google, on skills Lisa Montieth, Head of TA UK at HSBC on foresight Lyndsey Taylor, Global Head of HR Transformation at Brooks Automation, on influence Rory Sutherland, Vice Chair at Ogilivy UK, on talent Laura Coccaro, Chief People Officer at iCIMS on technology Kevin Wheeler, Future Of Talent Institute, on job displacement Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

This week, frequent guest and friend of The Futurists, Ross Dawson, takes over the hosting chair to speak with Joanna Lepore about Foresight and Vision(s) of the Future. Ross, founder of AHT Group (Advanced Human Technologies Group) and the futures think tank Future Exploration Network, introduces us to Joanna Lepore. In 2024, Joanna founded and now co-leads Foresight Inside Group (FIG), an invite-only network for corporate futurists. Previously, she established and led Foresight at McDonald's global HQ and Mars Wrigley, helping to push the strategies of some of the world's best-known brands into the future. Motivated by the power of diverse perspectives, she also created and hosts Looking Outside, a podcast to share those perspectives. This episode is packed with powerful and practical insights into the future, offering inspiration on how to seize today's opportunities and drive change in a transforming world.
Strategic foresight is the visionary practice of anticipating what's ahead—so you can make bold, future-shaping decisions today that turn uncertainty into opportunity. In this week's episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with futurist and designer Donna DuPont, founder and chief strategist at Purple Compass, to discuss how to anticipate the future and make better decisions. Donna's work is all about helping organizations embrace the power of strategic foresight—not the crystal ball kind, but the kind that empowers leaders to make bold, intelligent decisions today that position their organizations for tomorrow. Donna shares how foresight allows leaders to improve their relationship with uncertainty and confidently navigate disruption. She breaks down the difference between forecasting and foresight, explains how to develop anticipatory thinking skills, and offers actionable advice for integrating a culture of foresight into your team and company. I also share my own journey of applying foresight to lead StoneAge through strategic shifts, innovation challenges, and industry disruption. From creating a "what the future looks like" document in 2018 to guiding bold strategic moves, I've seen firsthand how powerful future-priming and pattern recognition can be. This episode is full of practical wisdom, thought-provoking insights, and a whole lot of energy around why developing future-ready leadership is more important than ever. What You'll Learn in This Episode: • What strategic foresight really is—and what it's not • How to practice foresight through horizon scanning and scenario planning • Why courage and vulnerability are key in navigating uncertainty • How confirmation bias derails smart strategy (and how to overcome it) • What you can do today to start building a future-proof culture in your organization Key Takeaways: 1. Foresight isn't about predicting the future—it's about understanding emerging patterns and making empowered decisions. 2. You don't need to overhaul everything. Start small. Choose a product, problem, or strategic focus area and test out anticipatory thinking there. 3. Innovation is messy, and that's okay. Courage, not perfection, leads to breakthrough moments. 4. Challenge your assumptions. Just because you think it doesn't make it true. 5. Hope is a mindset. Leaders who stay curious, connected, and optimistic are best positioned to create a better future.

Most high achievers crave clarity but unknowingly crowd out their own intuition with more productivity. If clearing distractions hasn't brought the insight you expected, maybe the real work isn't in doing. It's in listening. In this episode, Corinne Morahan explores why the habit of staying busy can become a barrier to intuition. She shares her own experience of stripping away clutter, only to realize that empty space doesn't automatically lead to deeper self-trust. Instead of filling every free moment with more tasks, what if the real shift comes from creating room for stillness? Corinne challenges the belief that productivity equals progress. She offers a different approach: one that invites curiosity, quiet, and self-trust. If you've ever wondered why clarity still feels out of reach despite all your effort, this episode might change the way you think about success.
