Gut Feeling vs. Tech: Who Should Decide Who We Hire?

In this episode, Rudi Bauer talks with Florian Dyballa, Co-Founder and CEO of Aivy, about the intersection of business psychology, artificial intelligence, and the future of recruitment. They discuss the common pitfalls of "gut feeling" in hiring and how a structured, evidence-based approach can eliminate bias and uncover hidden potential. Florian explains why the traditional CV is becoming outdated in a skills-based economy and how Aivy uses psychological diagnostics to provide a clearer signal early in the HR process. They also explore the "triangle" relationship between hiring managers, HR departments, and AI, emphasizing why the final decision must remain human—but should be backed by better data.

Building the Base: From Forced Pressure To Sustainable Performance

“What do I actually need to thrive?” That question from my conversation with Bo Wullings stayed with me long after the recording ended. Bo’s story is fascinating: He started as a swimmer, realized he wouldn’t make the national team, accepted that reality, and then completely reinvented himself through rowing, eventually making the Dutch national team there instead. But the real lesson wasn’t about sports. It was about self-awareness. Knowing: → where you thrive → what gives you energy → what kind of environment helps you grow → and being honest when something no longer fits In work and in life, sustainable performance doesn’t start with pushing harder. It starts with understanding yourself better.

The Art of Storytelling: What Makes Stories Stick

In this episode, Rudi Bauer sits down with Stefan Ganß, Business Trainer and professional Storyteller with over 20 years of experience in radio and TV, to explore why storytelling is the most powerful tool for making messages stick in a data-driven world. They delve into the "three-act structure" and the methodology of "story listening," discussing how even the most boring industrial data or ISO standards can be transformed into compelling narratives through contrast and emotion. Stefan shares his unique perspective on the "paper bag" moment that launched his career, the shift from being a narrator to being an empathetic observer, and why the modern leader’s greatest challenge isn’t finding material, but having the courage to prioritize the human element over raw information.

Hiring is Broken: Why CVs Don´t Predict Performance Anymore

Hiring is broken if we still believe CVs predict performance. In my conversation with Nick Leslie from Canditech, we talked about one of the biggest shifts in recruiting right now: Moving from pedigree to proof. Because in a world where AI can help candidates tailor hundreds of CVs, resumes are becoming harder and harder to trust as the main signal. The real question is no longer: “Where did this person work before?”The better question is: “Can this person actually do the job?” That’s why skills-based hiring and job simulations are becoming so important. They create a more objective, transparent, and fair process, for companies and for candidates. Less guessing. Less bias. More evidence. And maybe most importantly: More opportunities for people who might not look perfect on paper, but have exactly the skills needed to succeed.
