In the latest episode of the Recruitment Leadership Podcast your host, Alison Humphries, is joined by Leadership Coach and Author, Zena Everett.
Zena has a rare cocktail of entrepreneurial, head-hunting, organisational psychology and coaching experience. In her early career, Zena founded a successful recruitment business and in the process became increasingly interested in why some candidates were more successful than others.
To explore this interest further, Zena decided to pursue a master's degree in organisational psychology and psychological training.
This episode takes a slightly different format as the tables are turned and Alison is in the hot seat being interviewed by Zena all about what makes the recruitment sector great and what it takes to be a successful recruitment business leader.
