People leaders (that’s you!) are recruiters for your company.

Whether you are a CEO, CHRO, COO, recruiter, sourcer, HR Director, AI specialist or manager of your firm: you are a human hiring another human to reach the big hairy audacious goals you’ve promised both your shareholders and customers.

At The EI Recruiter, we love tech and human advancement. Podcast host Caroline Stokes, Author of Elephants Before Unicorns: Emotionally Intelligent HR Strategies To Save Your Company (Entrepreneur Press, 2019) has been in the heart of tech internationally for 27 years and advocates for organizations to adopt tech in order to achieve benchmarks faster. Many EI Recruiter podcast conversations spotlight various new technologies that can enhance your company’s operations.

But tech is only one piece of a much larger puzzle. At the EI Recruiter we believe that if work is to be meaningful, it has to first be human. Beyond tech, this podcast was created to help develop the many lenses of emotional intelligence to move you and your company forward.

In Season One, we spoke with guests across the emotional intelligence spectrum. We talked to bestelling authors including Kim Scott, Dorie Clark, Warren Berger, David Meade, Darrell West, Marshall Goldsmith, and Dr. Annie McKee with the goal of helping people leaders learn to adapt to the changing landscape of work. We also spoke about the tech and marketing aspect of business with employer brand leaders including Graeme Johnson, Erin Wilson, Bryan Chaney, and machine learning leaders including Beth Porter, Ulrik Juul Christiansen, Dr Charles Handler, and Raghav Singh.

The conversations were enlightening, entertaining, and inspiring. They are required listening for any people leader wanting to increase emotional intelligence to improve their company’s performance. Our conversations spotlighted the latest trends in organizational leadership; knowing these trends will enhance your ability to compete in the talent wars.

Season Two springboards off the first season to do a deeper dive on the challenges facing people leaders on the cusp of the fourth industrial revolution.

We are excited to have you join the conversation.
