Durante años aprender a programar parecía una apuesta segura: había demanda, buenos salarios y oportunidades globales. Pero la irrupción de la inteligencia artificial está cambiando las reglas del juego. Las empresas ya no buscan únicamente especialistas en un lenguaje de programación, sino profesionales capaces de resolver problemas, integrar tecnologías y entender el negocio. ¿Estamos ante el fin del developer tradicional o frente a una evolución de su rol? Para analizar qué perfiles ganan terreno, cuáles pierden relevancia y qué habilidades serán clave en los próximos años, conversamos con Cristina Rubio, HR Manager de Aditi Consulting.Algunos temas de la charla:• El fin del developer especialista en un único lenguaje.• Qué tareas ya está absorbiendo la IA.• El surgimiento del perfil "problem solver".• Los puestos más demandados en 2026.• La situación de los perfiles junior.• La evolución de los salarios tech.• Por qué América Latina pierde competitividad como hub tecnológico.• Qué estudiar hoy para seguir siendo relevante mañana.Host: Débora Slotnisky

[2:00] On with the Show! We are live on the exhibit floor at RISKWORLD 2026 at the Philadelphia Convention Center. There's a lot of great energy. That energy transferred from the stage to our booth! My first guests are from our LA RIMS Chapter, Sandy Avina and Angel Guerra. [2:23] Sandy and Angel co-presented the session on Tuesday, May 5th, "Between Truth and Trauma: Investigating the Invisible." RIMScast caught up with them right after they came off the stage to discuss the state of mental health claims and get a preview of their new book. [2:37] Sandy and Angel co-authored the book coming out on May 18th. It's called Riskfetti: Risk Management for the Rest of Us. We're going to have a lot of fun! Let's get to it! [2:44] Interview! Sandy Avina and Angel Guerra, Welcome to RIMScast! [2:58] Angel says this is her third RISKWORLD and she loves it! She last attended two years ago in San Diego. Sandy says this is her first time at RISKWORLD. She's trying to experience everything, and it's like trying to put ten pounds of sugar in a five-pound bag. She's getting there. [3:17] Sandy is The Riskfluencer on TikTok. [3:25] Angel has a business, Beauty and Beast in Business. [3:28] Together, Sandy and Angel make Riskfetti. [3:41] Angel started in the mailroom of SRS 20 years ago, moved through Claims, Operations Management, and Global Risk Management, and is now a VP at Arrowhead Evaluation, which does independent medical and risk consulting. [4:11] Angel's variety of experiences lets her see everything and gives her knowledge of risk management and the ability to manage a program well. [4:31] Right out of college, Sandy joined California's workers' compensation state fund as an adjuster. She loved it and started to learn other lines. She now works for California Schools JPA, a public risk pool supporting K-12 and community colleges. [4:54] Sandy leads the California Schools JPA claims program for property liability and workers' compensation. She loves it. [5:03] Sandy and Angel connected through LinkedIn. [5:25] Sandy and Angel presented a RISKWORLD session on developing the defense for psychological claims. Sandy says we're seeing the change in legislation for allowing mental-mental claims and not just physical-mental claims. [5:35] Dr. Ron Heredia was also on the panel. He spoke on how to crack defenses and properly investigate. There are red flags and also very truthful claims. As professionals, check your unconscious bias. Think about fact-finding without a specific agenda. [6:12] Justin points out that May is Mental Health Awareness Month in the U.S. Sandy partners wth Kind Souls Foundation, a non-profit that provides a warm, emotional support line for anybody with a work-displacing event. Sandy notes the struggles of the Sandwich Generation. [6:56] Angel says we see people are being a lot more open about mental health and self-care, but there's still a stigma to it. It's important to recognize that, not just in May, but throughout the year. [7:15] Justin mentions a guest from a couple of weeks ago who served in the Canadian military. He was very open about his Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. They had a wonderful conversation about it. Justin doesn't want to bring it up if somebody doesn't want to talk about it. [7:40] Sandy says, when you have the conversations more often, and they're more open, people feel more comfortable bringing it up. [7:50] Sandy and Angel's session was "Between Truth and Trauma: Investigating the Invisible." Angel says a lot of people told them they were very happy with the session. They see increases in legislation that allow for more mental-mental claims, and it's a challenge to keep up. [8:11] Angel says having Dr. Ron Heredia with them gave a view of what it looks like from the employer's side. Are you investigating those claims, recognizing the importance of very clear documentation? If it's not in writing, it didn't happen. Have a doctor help with questions to ask. [8:43] Riskfetti: Risk Management for the Rest of Us is coming out on May 18th. Sandy says she and Angel both started in claims, and they found that a lot of employers they spoke to didn't know risk management. They didn't understand their coverage or insurance, or how it works. [9:12] Sandy says a lot of the education in the industry today is very academic and is meant for the risk managers. Employers are not going to go get their CPCU or take webinars on coverage or understanding endorsements. They assign someone else to do it. It's split in the organization. [9:35] Sandy says nobody is speaking to that audience from a layperson's perspective in a way they'll be receptive to. Sandy said we wanted to make that information accessible, so we created a book that is fun, engaging, and more accessible for business owners. [9:49] Angel says they used case studies, fun stories of claims they had managed or others had managed. It's very engaging. People say they've read the book and laughed. It's for HR Managers, Safety Managers, and CFOs, who don't understand insurance but have responsibility. [10:41] Angel's advice for beginning risk professionals: Find a community of individuals who are willing to support you and talk about the hard things and cheer you on when you're not sure if insurance or claims is where you want to be. It's not an easy industry, but a wonderful industry. [11:00] Sandy's advice for the young generation is to make content about this industry. If you are working in this industry, make your TikToks and post on socials. We need to hear from that generation. It democratizes the flow of information. They already do it for their personal life. [11:18] Sandy says, talk about your experience. I want to know what it's like for somebody coming into the industry right now. I know what it was like 23 years ago; I want to know what it's like now. That's the best way to get that information out there. We want to know those opinions. [11:40] Justin says, I love what you're doing. You've got a lot of great energy! Angel, Sandy, thank you so much for joining me on RIMScast. You were wonderful guests! I hope to see you again next year. [12:04] A Quick Break! There are so many other wonderful RIMS events coming up in 2026.

[13:44] The RIMS ERM Conference 2026 will be held on November 18th and 19th in Columbus, Ohio. Details will follow. [13:52] Our final guest is Joel Appelbaum, Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer at IRMI, the International Risk Management Institute! Joel is the host of IRMI's podcast, The Edge of Risk. He was formerly a Chief Risk Officer. [14:10] We are going to talk all about our shared interests and the importance of risk management education, and some of the trends that are emerging, some that are overhyped, and what he's seeing on the risk landscape. Let's get to it! [14:23] Interview! Joel Appelbaum, Welcome to RIMScast! [14:28] Joel Appelbaum is the Executive Vice President and Chief Content Officer for IRMI. Joel says he is used to asking the questions; he says it will be really cool to be asked the questions. [14:47] Joel is the host of The Edge of Risk. When they launched, six years ago, the idea was to come up with more relevant content, quickly, by talking to leaders. In the last year, it has grown by 60%. There's a need for insurance podcasts. It's still growing. [15:24] Justin notes that Elise Farnham was a recent guest. Elise teaches for RIMS. Justin says insurance podcasts share the same space, and there's some natural crossover. Justin and Joel sat together the day before at the main stage keynote. [15:53] Justin asks Joel about his having been an Enterprise Chief Risk Officer, when Enterprise Chief Risk Officers first came into vogue. He felt there were not a lot of resources for being a good ECRM, after coming from an underwriting background with CPCU and IRMI. [16:22] It was a challenging time. Joel cites Adam Grant's theme of low ego but honestly trying to help. Joel remembers bringing up to his boss that IT could be a risk, and being yelled at by his boss for about an hour for yellow-flagging IT. [16:53] Joel loves where Enterprise Risk Management has gone. It's necessary to identify risks in a positive way and deal with them proactively. [17:06] Joel says when it started, it was a rough job. Asking people what keeps them up at night, and sharing that with the board regularly, people weren't ready for it. It's a necessary and important job, but Joel found it to be one of the most challenging, alone on an island. [17:30] Joel thinks everyone who's been an Enterprise Chief Risk Officer or Risk Officer will tell you they do it with very few resources. Joel is glad to have an organization like RIMS to help. [17:50] Joel says he was in a lot of positions that IRMI serves. He was a Product Officer, an Enterprise Chief Risk Officer, a Chief Underwriting Officer, and a Chief Actuary. He did a lot of great things with a lot of great people. None of that prepared him to be a Chief Content Officer. [18:17] Being a Chief Content Officer is about writing and deep research. Joel works with people who research all day. [18:29] Joel learned that there's a disconnect between deep research and understanding coverage and analysis well, and practical insights and thought leadership for how it works in the real world. Parsing it and putting it together, and communicating it is the challenge. [18:53] Joel says it was a bit bumpy coming in and changing the way that IRMI approached things. Joel speaks of his joy of working for Jack Gibson at IRMI. [19:15] Joel says trying to put all the research into writing, keeping it up to date, making it useful, and changing it from just research to practical insights was challenging. It's been a great challenge, and he loves it. [19:29] Joel says he loves being at IRMI and working with people in the industry every day, trying to understand what they need. [20:16] Joel says he struggled with translating research into print, CE courses, and conferences. That takes time, and they need to be updated with the times, as well. A podcast can be simple. Yesterday, Justin and Joel came up with six or seven relevant questions and were ready to go. [20:48] Joel says podcasts fill the gap for the on-demand, necessary knowledge somebody might be seeking on the go. Joel's 30-something children listen to podcasts in the car or while they're exercising. You don't have to sit. Joel likes to do 20- or 30-minute Edge of Risk podcasts. [21:35] Joel says you can cover a very specific, timely topic. It doesn't take the effort of doing a research project or writing a book. Getting it to print takes time. If something changes in war, terrorism, or cyber, you can have a new podcast out in a day. [21:54] Justin says he finds it very gratifying when a guest's words on RIMScast are cited in a white paper. Seeing a reference to something he has done is very gratifying. Joel agrees. [22:10] Joel feels like it's such an honor to meet with thought leaders in the industry, sit down with them, and ask them questions. Joel says he gets great knowledge, meeting them, and learning a little bit about them personally. [22:43] Joel says it's gratifying when young professionals come up to him saying they know him from the podcast. Justin mentions people hearing him talking in the halls at RISKWORLD or RIMS events and recognizing him as the RIMScast guy or the webinar host guy. [23:26] Joel says AI has been a little overhyped. We all need to understand how to use it, but it isn't going to provide all the answers. A guest on his podcast told him at RISKWORLD they're going all in on AI for learning. [23:55] Joel says he gets that AI can be a quick fit for the answer you need. It's the right tool for the right time, but all risk managers know you have to have a lot of tools in your tool kit. AI doesn't replace foundational knowledge. [24:16] Joel's MBA helped him understand the other disciplines in the organization, to know when he was getting good information or bad information, and how to talk the language. [24:35] Joel believes that RIMS certifications and IRMI certifications help risk managers and insurance professionals understand the foundational knowledge. Then they know if they're getting a good answer from the AI. [24:50] Joel says that AI is trained on the internet. The internet has some flaws. Joel predicts AI will hit a learning curve. You're not getting the latest and greatest insights from RIMS or IRMI just writing a white paper on a new topic. Are you getting your AI from a reliable data source? [25:25] Joel advocates for using AI on IRMI material. They have an AI agent in beta now. IRMI has ReferenceConnect for its customers. AI is a good tool, but it's overhyped as a solution for everything. It's not going to solve all the problems. [26:00] It's a great tool if you're using it to gather data. Joel went to a great session at RISKWORLD with LineSlip about bringing all your different brokers' information together so you can get real insights. AI is a great tool to be used at the right place, at the right time. [26:23] You can't have it write all your letters because it doesn't sound like you. [26:37] Justin says an issue that's top of mind for him is PFAS, forever chemicals, because we need water to live. The second our water supply is bad, we've got much bigger problems. [26:52] Joel says Marsh did a presentation at an IRMI conference talking about how widespread the PFAS problem is. It should be on everybody's risk radar. Joel has put more filters in all of his houses. [27:21] Justin says Third-Party Litigation Funding is an emerging risk for RIMS. Joel has also done several podcasts on that. Liberty Mutual likes to call it Legal System Abuse. They had a great podcast on it with The Edge of Risk. [28:04] Joel says the concerning aspects are inflated awards and nuclear verdicts. ISO has introduced a new endorsement on disclosing third-party litigation funding. We've always needed tort reform. Joel thought that as an Enterprise Risk Manager, 20 years ago. [28:39] Joel says if you look at how all the other countries do it, the United States has a problem. It's really important to solve it. Insurance is a fundamental backstop and assistance to business. If the problem continues, insurers may start declining. How do you find solutions? [29:10] Joel thinks one of the solutions is to determine the appropriate amount of an award. Does $200 million make up for something where $2 million would suffice? [29:33] Justin says that he and Joel met up at the keynote with Adam Grant. They both enjoyed the keynote. Adam Grant spoke of unpleasant truths we may not want to hear. There's a difference between being loyal and being honest. [30:26] Joel doesn't have a problem delivering the unpleasant truths, but it has not always been great for his career. Joel says that in a lot of big corporate organizations, people want their allies with them. A new Chief Officer comes in and brings loyal friends with him. [30:54] Four or five years of being coddled later, the officer is gone. Joel worked for CNA for four different CEOs. Joel learned that integrity matters. He says if you communicate out of frustration or anger, it comes across wrong. [31:35] Joel says what he loved about Adam Grant's message is that people need to deliver the truth in a way that is kind and fair, and not fake. The people who tell you what you want to hear and that you're the greatest ever are the people you need to "get rid of." [32:08] Joel tells people that the knife gets sharper against the steel. Joel wants somebody who's sharpening the skill. He has to work harder for it. That's who he likes to surround himself with. Joel has his "board of governors" he goes to for help as a sounding board. [32:58] Leaders who surround themselves with yes-people are not going to last long. Justin asks about the compliment sandwich. Joel likes it if it doesn't come off as fake. Ask AI what's a fair way to deliver this, a compassionate way to give feedback. AI can give unbiased feedback. [33:45] Justin shares an experience where he successfully used AI to shorten and change the tone of an angry email message before he sent it. He was very pleased with the result, and the response was "OK." Joel admits he has delivered a lot of career-shortening emails. [34:44] AI should be thought of as a sounding board. Justin thinks the students coming into the profession probably already do so. Joel says certain types he has worked with don't handle negative feedback well from their peers. AI might be the best way for them to respond. [35:25] Joel has been to about 10 RISKWORLDs. He says the vibe this year is awesome. He feels there's a lot more opportunity for small connections. He loves the smaller talks. The conversation pods are great. There's always lots to learn, interesting people, and friends. [36:07] I love what you do at IRMI.

How Strategic Hiring Built a £30 Million Business in Under Two Years with Sarah Bishop

Welcome to the Superfast Recruitment podcast. In this episode, Sharon sits down with Sarah Bishop, founder of Recruit Recruit, based in Wolverhampton, and author of the newly published book Scale Up! The Founder’s Guide to Accelerating Growth by Building Dream Teams. Sarah has spent 30 years in recruitment, and her book is built around one of the most extraordinary case studies you will hear in this industry: helping a business called Your Doctor Film and Media grow from zero to £30 million in turnover in just 21 months, in the middle of a pandemic. This is a conversation about what strategic hiring actually looks like in practice, why culture and DNA matter far more than job specs, and how Sarah’s subscription model is changing the way small and growing businesses access great recruitment support. Sarah also shares something refreshingly honest: that despite all her success in helping others to scale, she has found it harder to apply the same thinking to her own business. What Made You Write the Book? Sharon: Before we get into the big case study, tell me, what made you decide to write the book in the first place? Sarah: It was a mixture of things, really. Throughout my career, I have worked with fast-growing businesses. Phones4U, Holiday Hypermarket, HomeServe. But those experiences were always as part of a larger team doing volume hiring. The case study at the heart of the book, Your Doctor Film and Media, was completely different because we were building every single team from scratch across every function. There were genuine moments where I thought I knew something, and then realised I knew it in theory but not in practice. And honestly, the second reason was to prove to myself that I could actually finish something as big as a book. The £30 Million Journey Sharon: So, your book is centred on helping Your Doctor Film and Media go from zero to £30 million in just 21 months, during a pandemic of all things. Walk me through it. What were the big recruitment challenges, and how did you help them see hiring as a competitive advantage rather than just a cost? Sarah: In the early days, it was a malay. Nobody knew what was going on or how long Covid was going to last. Your Doctor Film and Media started by providing Covid testing for the film and media industry at Pinewood Studios, beginning with Jurassic World Dominion, and it just snowballed from there. The turning point came when producers got frustrated that government laboratories could not turn tests around quickly enough. Hollywood producers are fairly exacting about their timetables and budgets, so Your Doctor made the very smart decision to build their own labs. Suddenly we were finding biomedical scientists and a Head of Science who, miraculously, got the labs ISO-accredited in a matter of weeks. I was brought in through Vanessa Deco, a brilliant Chief People Officer and a very good friend. She introduced me to Pete and Dr. Rick, and they trusted me from day one. They gave me access all areas, including board meetings and strategic planning sessions, which meant I could really do my job properly. I cannot take too much credit for the strategic approach. A lot of that was down to Pete and the founding team being willing to stop reacting and start building a proper business. Hiring for Roles That Do Not Exist Yet Sharon: That is such a challenge, is it not? Recruiting for roles that do not even exist yet. How did you figure out what talent was needed before the business even knew what it required? Sarah: The early stages were actually more straightforward than you might think. The first brief was very clear: find people who could interface between film crews and clinical teams, work antisocial hours without complaint, think on their feet, and handle what I called tricky people, meaning Hollywood producers who wanted the impossible done yesterday. I immediately knew that events and hospitality professionals, many of whom had been furloughed or made redundant during Covid, were the perfect fit. Some of my earliest placements were technically overqualified, but I could see they were going to become the future leaders of the business. Laura had spent years with Disney on their cruises and ended up heading up special productions including The Crown. Serge had been Events Manager at the Royal Opera House for 13 years and followed a similar path. The harder roles came later, on the technical and scientific side, where candidates tended to be more risk-averse. Some people I simply could not put in front of the client, not because they lacked the ability, but because they needed structure that did not exist yet and would not have lasted five minutes in that environment. Getting Culture and DNA Right Sharon: Most agencies just default to matching skills and experience when they are under pressure to move fast. How did you get under the skin of Your Doctor’s culture and DNA, and how did that actually change who you put forward? Sarah: Getting the DNA match right is not just about culture and values, though those matter. It is about genuinely understanding what a business is trying to achieve and where it is going, and then working out whether a candidate will actually thrive in that specific environment. I still cringe at the term ‘recruitment consultant’, because too many people in this industry are essentially order-takers. They get a job spec, they try to fill it, and they have no idea where the business is heading. I was very fortunate that Pete, Dr. Rick, and the whole team treated me as an equal, not as ‘the recruiter’. We were never left waiting for feedback. We were in the room. That is what allowed me to do my best work. Pete once said it was so nice to work with a recruiter where you did not feel you needed to arm yourself with a wooden stake and cloves of garlic. He had used all the big London names on previous projects, and I think that says everything. The Subscription Model Sharon: Tell me about your subscription model, because it is quite different from the traditional contingency approach. What drove you to develop it, and why do you think it works better for businesses that are growing fast? Sarah: I cannot believe I did not think of it sooner. Traditional contingency recruitment creates this start-stop-start dynamic that serves nobody. Even if the placements are brilliant, the reactive nature of it means businesses are always catching up. My model is designed to work like an embedded internal talent acquisition team, without all the overhead. Clients get predictable monthly costs rather than surprise fees, which is better for their cash flow. And from our side, we get the time to build proper talent pools, map the market, and do a genuinely good job rather than scrambling to fill an urgent vacancy. We have a startup mode from around four hundred pounds a month for sole traders taking on their first hire, right the way up to established corporates whose finance directors are looking at recruitment spend and do not want a full internal team sitting idle in quiet periods. I should also say, with some embarrassment, that I have not scaled my own business anywhere near as well as I have helped others to scale theirs. Classic physician-heal-thyself. The Hire That Changed Everything Sharon: So looking back over that whole 21-month journey, what was the single hire that you think really shifted things for Your Doctor? The one that unlocked the next stage of growth? Sarah: It is not the hire you might expect. The earliest placements, the events and hospitality professionals we brought in when nobody knew what was going on, had an enormous impact. Not just because they handled the chaos brilliantly, but because they stepped up and became managers and leaders as the business grew. In terms of a single hire that shifted the trajectory, I would point to Katie, the Director of HR. We had brought in Mandy as HR Manager initially, and she was brilliant at the transactional work: getting policies and procedures in place. But the business scaled so fast that it very quickly needed strategic HR leadership, and that was a completely different thing. One of the lessons I share in the book is that in rapid scaling, you need to think carefully about whether you are better off bringing in a senior hire or an interim from the start, rather than assuming you can grow up from a junior level. Getting a critical hire wrong at that stage is serious. At best it stalls you. At worst it could be the end of the business. From Car Sales to Recruitment Sharon: Right, let’s talk about you for a minute. Your background is not a conventional route into recruitment at all. Car sales, Wolverhampton, environmental science degree. How did all of that shape the way you approach this industry? Sarah: I graduated with an environmental science degree in the nineties, which was not especially useful, combined with a fairly significant student debt. My dad had run car yards and dealerships, I had done sales training working in shoe shops on Oxford Street, so I knew I could earn commission. I went in absolutely for the money. But the real lessons I took from that background into recruitment had nothing to do with cars. They were about human behaviour, psychology, and a genuine curiosity about what makes people tick. Understanding people, what they really mean when they say something, is the best skill you can bring to recruitment. It helps with interviewing, with building client rapport, with the DNA-matching work that has become central to everything I do. My autism and ADHD are part of that too. I have always been hypercurious about people, sometimes to an uncomfortable degree. When I joined Extra Personnel in 1996 as a temp controller, that curiosity was already there. As a temp controller you do not interview to a job spec, you interview the person. I have never really stopped doing it that way. Building a Team That Makes You Redundant Sharon: Now this one fascinates me, because there is a real tension in your book between being the external recruitment partner and your goal of building internal teams that eventually make the recruiter redundant. Why on earth would you want to do that? Sarah: I know it sounds like a poor business model, and I will admit it is. But I stand by it completely. A lot of this ties into my autism, which gives me a very finely tuned sense of what is fair and ethical. If I do such a good job that the client does not need me anymore, that is exactly what they brought me in to do. I am not going to sit there worrying about future revenue. And in practice, those clients always come back when they next need someone, because the relationship and the trust are already there. The subscription model does now offer a natural alternative, because not every business wants or can sustain an internal HR and recruitment function. Many HR professionals actively dislike doing recruitment because it pulls them away from everything else they need to manage. So now there is an option that gives clients consistency and strategic input without the overhead. I still stand by making yourself redundant as a principle, but I am glad we now also have a model that makes business sense alongside it. Marketing and Employer Brand Sharon: Your whole approach is very relational and very marketing-led. You think about employer brand, candidate experience, matching people not just for right now but for where the business is going. How does that differ from what most recruiters do? Sarah: I will be honest, our own marketing is very much a work in progress. We do not yet have a clearly defined candidate niche, which makes it harder to market with real specificity on that side, and that is a 2026 project for us. Where we have genuinely improved is in consistency. Having the monthly content from Superfast Recruitment means Marianne and I now have something to work with every single month instead of scrambling or just not getting things out at all. When the resources come through, we genuinely go ‘yes!’, because we can adapt them and get them out there. Our broader marketing philosophy is very relational. There is no corporate speak on our website or in our communications. It is very much us. The role marketing plays for us is simply making sure that when the right client or candidate finds us, they already have a sense of who we are and what we are like to work with. Scaling Your Own Business Sharon: So tell me, Bish. Writing about scaling is one thing, but doing it in your own business is a completely different story. What did writing this book teach you about your own operation? And what would the Sarah of today tell the Sarah who was just starting Recruit Recruit? Sarah: Take my own advice. That is the biggest lesson. I am genuinely good at solving other people’s problems, and I have been pretty poor at applying the same thinking to my own business. Two things really stand out from writing the book. The first came from going back to The E-Myth by Michael Gerber. Just sit down and sketch out the organisation chart for the size of business you want, not the one you have got right now. That single exercise forces you into strategic conversations about what will actually move the needle and who to bring in first. The second is accountability. I am slightly embarrassed to admit that nearly every chapter of Scale Up! was written on a Thursday evening, the night before my weekly call with my writing mentor. When I looked back at my calendar, it was painfully obvious. But the lesson is real: whether you are writing a book or building a business, an accountability partner who simply asks ‘did you do what you said you were going to do?’ makes an enormous difference. For founders picking up the book, the signs it is right for you are pretty clear. If you are juggling too many plates and not moving fast enough, if you find yourself thinking ‘why can they not understand what I want?’, or if you have a sizable team but you are still being pulled into everything because there is nobody senior enough to take things off your plate, that is the book for you. Finally Sharon: Bish, this has been brilliant. Honestly, one of my favourite conversations we have had on this podcast. The story of Your Doctor Film and Media is extraordinary, and I think there is so much in here that recruitment business owners can take and run with. If you want to get hold of Sarah’s book, Scale Up! The Founder’s Guide to Accelerating Growth by Building Dream Teams is available now.

In this inspiring long-form conversation, Working Out Loud founder John Stepper reveals how peer-to-peer development, shared learning, and authentic human connection can transform not only careers but entire organizational cultures. John shares the origin story of Working Out Loud (WOL), now used in more than 100 global organizations, and explains why meaningful relationships, psychological safety, and generosity are at the heart of effective personal development.

Faces of Manufacturing is a newer show to Michigan Business Network. Cindy Kangas, Executive Director, CAMC, Capital Area Manufacturing Council, Lansing, Michigan, co-hosts with Joy Wagner, HR Manager of Granger Waste Services, also Lansing. Cindy and Joy strive to share the corporate culture, personal stories, and unique personalities of those making a living in manufacturing today, in Michigan. With that in mind, this month they connected with several team members of Granger Waste Services. Segment 2 – Company Overview Guest: Paul Anderson, Chief Operating Officer Granger's History and Mission · Can you start by giving us a brief overview of Granger's history - how did the company get its start? · What makes Granger's story unique in the waste services industry? · Granger is a family business at its core. How has that shaped the way the company operates and serves the community? What are Granger's core values? Core Values: Safety First · Let's talk about Granger's core values; why is safety listed first? · Can you give an example of how Granger has prioritized safety in recent operations or projects? · What's the biggest misconception people have about safety in the waste industry, and how does Granger approach that differently? · How do you keep safety top of mind every day, from leadership down to the front lines? Segment 3 – Safety and Training Guest: Josh Kindy, Safety and Training Manager Safety and Training · Tell us about your role · What are some of the tools or technologies Granger uses to support safety training today? · How do you measure success when it comes to safety training—what are the key indicators you track? · Safety is often associated with drivers and operations teams. How do you ensure safety is embedded across all departments—from HR to accounting to customer · How do you keep safety messaging fresh and relevant for all employees, not just those out in the field? · What advice would you give to other organizations trying to move from “safety as a rule” to “safety as a mindset”? Segment 4 – Frontline Safety in Operations Guest: Brian Looney, Operations Manager – Lansing Safety Training and Protocols for Professional Drivers · Tell us about your role · How do you keep safety front and center for drivers who have been on the job for years? · What are some of the most common risks drivers face, and how does Granger help them manage those risks? · How do you reinforce accountability and safe behavior out on the road—especially when no one is watching? · How do supervisors or lead drivers play a role in reinforcing safety protocols day-to-day? · Let's talk about the equipment- how does Granger ensure its vehicles are safe and well-maintained? · What types of safety technology are installed in the trucks, and how do they help reduce incidents or near misses? · How does routing software or onboard cameras contribute to both safety and efficiency? · How do you balance using tech as a tool for safety versus it feeling like surveillance or micromanagement? Segment 5 – Waste Acceptance & Hidden Hazards Guest: Serenity Skillman, Construction Manager Risks of Dangerous Items in Trash · Can you start by explaining what “waste acceptance” means and how it relates to the work you do every day? · You've said that one of the biggest risks to our people comes from dangerous items hidden in the trash. What are some of the most common offenders? · Why are items like lithium-ion batteries, propane tanks, or chemicals such a serious threat in our waste stream? · Can you walk us through what can happen when these items end up in the wrong place whether it's on a truck, at a landfill, or at a transfer station? · What is Granger doing to educate customers and the community about what shouldn't go in the trash? · How do our drivers and facility teams detect or respond to hazardous items before they cause harm? · What steps can everyday households take to help protect our people by properly disposing of hazardous items?

In a recent episode of the Valley Today, host Janet Michael brought insightful conversations to the forefront, showcasing a new initiative aimed at bolstering the manufacturing sector in the region. The show featured Sabra Veach, Director of Programs for the Top of Virginia Regional Chamber, and Adrianna Venzor, HR Manager at Berry Global, shedding light on the newly launched Manufacturing Networking Group. Sabra expressed excitement over the new networking group, emphasizing its importance for the local manufacturing community. “With the increase in manufacturing activities in Winchester, the group aims to foster connections and share best practices among industry players,” she stated. Adrianna, co-chair of the group, detailed the objectives and structure of their meetings. The group meets monthly, typically on the first Friday, excluding major local event days like Apple Blossom Friday. “Our goal is to provide a platform where manufacturers can share insights, address challenges, and collaborate on opportunities,” Adrianna elaborated. The meetings feature presentations from host manufacturers, networking opportunities, and open discussions on relevant industry topics. Attendees even get a chance to tour the host facilities, providing first-hand knowledge of diverse manufacturing processes. A significant highlight of the discussion was the broad spectrum of manufacturing activities in the region. Adrianna pointed out that Winchester hosts over a hundred manufacturing facilities, producing everything from plastic bottles to marine bumpers. She emphasized the value of understanding and sharing each other's operations to foster a robust manufacturing community. Addressing common misconceptions about manufacturing careers, Adrianna stressed the sector's potential for fulfilling careers. “There is so much opportunity for growth and learning in manufacturing. It's a lot cleaner and safer than people often imagine,” she added. Janet echoed this sentiment, noting that modern manufacturing environments are often surprisingly clean and technologically advanced. The conversation concluded with practical information on joining the networking group, encouraging local manufacturers to participate and benefit from this collaborative community. The Chamber's initiative underscores the dynamic and essential role of manufacturing in Winchester's economy, aiming to elevate the sector through shared knowledge and community spirit. Sabra also shared an exciting development for the Chamber – an upcoming international trip to Croatia in October. Members and non-members alike are invited to join the nine-day tour, which promises a rich cultural experience coupled with professional guidance throughout the trip.

Rachel opened the discussion by providing an overview of what Opportunity Scholars is all about. “Opportunity Scholars is an organization that connects individuals to jobs and to education. We take people who are unemployed or underemployed and come from low to middle-income families and help connect them to employment and help connect them to an education.” She emphasized the organization's growth since its inception in 2019 and the positive impact it's had on the community. Rachel conveyed her gratitude to partners like Holtzman Corp for their invaluable support. Janet highlighted the success and the critical role partnerships play in the expansion of Opportunity Scholars. She noted that while some organizations struggle with expansion, Opportunity Scholars is prospering, thanks to their strategic alliances with various businesses and educational institutions. Caroline delved deeper into the organization's growth strategy, particularly highlighting their expansion into Shenandoah County, thanks to a generous gift from Bill Holtzman. “We are very focused on career and technical education because let's face it – we are seeing critical shortages in everything from HVAC to electrical, to nursing,” Brown stated. She emphasized the importance of their partnerships with local schools, businesses, and the need for a dedicated coach to support their scholars. Shonda shed light on the diversity of opportunities within Holtzman Corp and the mutual benefits of their partnership with Opportunity Scholars. Avis elaborated on how the corporation's support aligns with Holtzman's community-focused ethos, providing a healthy pipeline of qualified candidates for various roles within their extensive business operations.
