We help early and mid-stage companies recruit exceptional go-to-market talent (that others often miss).These articles cover my thinking on various topicshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cbrotman/recent-activity/posts/Here are six core beliefs:1. We need to do a better job at promoting career opportunities for underrepresented groups in the broadest possible sense. DEI professionals often get this wrong. We need to change the way we source, engage, and onboard talent from all walks of life. If we do so, companies will perform better.2. Cronyism is a problem in tech hiring. We need to get more comfortable hiring strangers and getting outside our personal networks. 3. If you hire "from the gut," you may not have a hiring process. Without a process, you cannot scale.4. It's not a virtue to "fire fast" - and it's never been a virtue. Companies need to do a better job at on-boarding their new hires.5. Personal branding evangelism has pyramid-scheme like features. Worrying about your personal brand before you develop key skills is putting the cart before the horse. 6. Be wary of remote work evangelism. It may be creating the conditions for the outsourcing of everything. Sitting on video calls all day is dystopian. I like remote work, but it's had an adverse impact on our communities, mental health and talent skills development. It's a very complicated topic.email: chuck@blueprintexpansion.comphone or text: 415.720.7710
