Select your learning mode
Welcome to another exciting Episode of W.T.F. with Saul! In this Episode, Saul sits down with Dana Neiger to explore a deeply relevant topic: how healing, empathy, and purposeful hiring can transform the modern workplace. What does it truly mean to lead with emotional intelligence? Why are traditional hiring methods failing to recognize potential beyond the résumé?
This conversation dives into the human side of leadership, revealing how mental health awareness, active listening, and value-based recruitment can drive performance and retention. Drawing on Dana’s experience with Hive Talent and her leadership memoir Before I Knew it, They Were Gone, this Episode brings attention to the outdated systems still prevalent in today’s hiring culture. You'll explore why reading between the lines, recognizing transferable skills, and embracing a people-first mindset aren’t just “nice-to-haves”—they’re business imperatives. Learn why Gen Z is demanding more transparency and how employers can build trust through recognition, inclusion, and psychological safety.
Major Topics:
This isn’t just theory—it’s a transformational blueprint. By the end of this CPE Episode, you’ll be equipped to bring humanity back to hiring and culture-building. Join us to challenge the norms and lead with intention.
