A lovely clip from our podcast with Research Culture Uncovered 🎶 It was a great conversation- especially about SPRE’s approach to values-led recruitment. There is so much we can do to recruit in ways that are accessible and encourgaing for all involved. In the long-run, building relationships and collaborations (including through recruitment) takes time and benefits from a focus on transparency and trust. Are you recruiting? What is helping you to take time to really meet people where they’re at - and where you’re at too? We’re happy to chat about SPRE’s approach. So just reach out if you’d like to hear about our model of co-leadership. Special shout out to Briana Pegado who has helped SPRE develop - and keep to - its values. Working with an external expert through this process was an essential part of our own accoutnabilty process throughout recruitment.
