This show explores how recruiting has impacted the story of leaders and top performers. At some point, we were all just undiscovered, but recruiting creates a fork in the road.
In this podcast we interview Executives and leaders in the freight and transportation industry, athletes, entrepreneurs, authors, writers and speakers. The goal is to explore how recruiting impacted their success and share insights that will help others along the way.
60: Six recruiting lessons from Backcountry Elk Hunting and The Chapman girls as special guests
In this episode, Adrian talks about the 6 lessons on recruiting he gleaned while on the mountain elk hunting in September.
We also take some community questions for the first time.
Those questions:
What is the best way to find talent in a market that is extremely competitive?
Does talent in transportation look different than it did in the past with new things like Ai and Automation?
We also talk to first time guests, Adrian's daughters about what they want to be when they grow up and what they like to do with dad.
