    Episode 51 - Dave Hartin, Success Isn’t About Clocking Hours

    Episode 51 - Dave Hartin, Success Isn’t About Clocking Hours People often show up every day and expect results from simply doing that. But if you own your own business or make your money off of commission, you’re going to need to do more than just punch the clock and occupy the space.

Key Moments: How Dave came to a place where they decided to start Aixal Consulting Ltd One of the biggest challenges Dave and his team faced launching Aixal  Why Dave feels like you are more secure in a smaller company versus with one of the large corporations Why Dave and Aixal don’t advertise and what they focus on instead The difference between hours worked and hard work and how to focus on the latter Some of the common mistakes Dave sees other staffing companies make   Favorite Quote:  “Understand what’s important, what’s urgent, and what isn’t.“ Dave Connect with Dave: Dave is a leader who has dedicated his career to the art of talent acquisition and executive search.

Connect with Suky: I’m Suky an adrenaline junkie who celebrates every single win. I believe we must celebrate and collect all our wins along the way as it fuels forward momentum to ensure we exceed our goals. When we fuel forward momentum, complacency simply can not settle in. With over 25 years of experience working in the staffing industry, 16 of those working with global recruitment companies, I bring the knowledge and experience of working in 18 countries and successfully navigating through numerous “recession” cycles. Companies often get so focused on the bottom line that they forget that we are in the “people business”.

    Episode 49 - Richard Fernandes, Demonstrating Value as a Headhunter Headhunters and the rest of us in the recruitment industry tend to downplay what it is that we do and the effect we have on the world.

    Episode 48 - Why Do You Fear Making Sales Calls?

    Episode 48 - Why Do You Fear Making Sales Calls? Ultimately we are primally adverse to failure because in the past, failure could mean death. So when the chance of failure appears, we often turn the other way and run so as to avoid certain danger. If we want to find success, we must stay and endure and make the calls. It’s the only way. Key Moments: Why it’s so important to embrace text but to be careful with email automation  How getting to the root of why you don’t like cold calls can be helpful Things you can do to warm up the client so you don’t have to call cold Why you need to learn to deal with rejection if you ever hope to be successful Why you are still in sales if you are only on the candidate side of the equation How to deal with your feelings that your cost may be too high for the market   Favorite Quote:  “He told me, ‘Suky, I told them they need to fire you. You’ll never be successful in this industry because you don’t know how to sell and you are fearful of rejection.’ All of that was true at the time.“ Suky Sodhi      Connect with Suky: I’m Suky an adrenaline junkie who celebrates every single win.

    Episode 47 - What is The Recruitment Professionals Forum (RPF) Often the Canadian Staffing Industry gets lumped in with the US industry even though they are two entirely different industries that do include some crossover, but the rules are indeed very different.

Canadians tend to want to play it safe and squirrel away money when really in the long run that’s not the safest plan.

    Episode 44 - Lana Khoury - Failing Towards Success

    Episode 44 - Lana Khoury - Failing Towards Success Things are rarely as they seem. It’s not until you are truly knee deep in a subject that you fully begin to understand the ins and outs. That’s why we can’t fake experience, and the easiest way to gain real experience is to jump in and start failing. Key Moments: How COVID favored those who were not hourly workers and how that changed things for Lana How Lana came up with the name Aukazi and how you pronounce it and why she likes that it’s quirky and weird How Aukazi is helping hourly paid workers to connect with employers and how either side can leverage the platform Some of the challenges Lana has faced while building Aukazi and how she has overcome them Why Lana is not interested in competing with agencies but rather working with them to make the industry better Why Lana feels like it’s all been worth it even though they didn’t launch on budget Why you need to bring in experts and not be able to expect to do everything on your own While failing early and often is so important when starting a new venture   Favorite Quote:  “We can’t be set in our ways when you start a business. You think you know what you want and you go with it, but then you have to use the data, and you have to use the feedback, and you have to work directly with customers and industry experts to help you make the right move.“ Lana Khoury      Connect with Lana:  Aukazi   Lana Khoury is a visionary leader revolutionizing temporary and seasonal hiring through her innovative platform, Aukazi.
