About this episode

In this episode, Donald is joined by Anilu Vazquez-Ubarri, Partner and Chief Human Resources Officer at TPG Global, and the Co-Founders of Medley, Edith Cooper and Jordan Taylor, CEO, to discuss the importance of feedback loops and how to manage with intentional focus. We also discuss strategies to create development opportunities and how to formally invest in employee growth.

People-first companies prioritize their people and foster a culture of hiring. They understand that people are their most valuable asset, so they treat all their people practices — especially hiring — as strategic, rather than administrative, functions. On The Greenhouse podcast: People-first, join host Donald Knight, Chief People Officer at Greenhouse, as he sits down with individuals at innovative organizations to discover how these companies prioritize their people.
