💡How do you make your hiring process more inclusive💡 🎙️Find out by joining me for episode 8 of #CultureCorner, where I speak to Terry Brown, Director of Engineering at Mews. I loved speaking to Terry, he’s so easy to engage with, as he takes you on a journey sharing his vast experiences of creating strong cultures and high performing teams. I enjoyed listening to Terry talk about his book club and the benefits of reading and reviewing management books as a team. Terry is extremely humble, he shares many of his experiences both positive and negative, which will hopefully help and benefit peers and future leaders throughout their leadership journey. I found Terry really engaging and extremely well read when it comes to discussing culture and high performance. I’m sure this won’t be the only appearance Terry makes on Culture Corner. In this episode we talk about a range of topics covering things such as – ✅The benefits of all hand’s meetings. ✅Inclusive hiring. ✅Importance of Psychological safety. ✅Emotional intelligence and empathy. ✅Collecting and giving feedback. ✅The importance of diverse teams. ✅What makes a good leader. As always, thanks very much to Alfie for all your help, hard work and support. It's massively appreciated.

How are you managing inclusive hiring? There's lots of great practice at Mews that tries to ensure we see ALL of the people who could be the right person for the job, not just the people who look like me. We want people to 'add' to the organisation, more than a 'fit' in the organisation.
