We’re living in a new age in which the product isn’t nearly as important as the people who make it. Talent has the single-biggest impact on a company’s bottom line and long-term success, which makes the ability to uncover and hire the right talent, at the right time, for the right roles the most valuable business function. Great hiring is not just the result of great recruiters working their magic. It’s a company-wide commitment that's vital to building amazing workplaces.

And it all starts with our leaders.

At Greenhouse, we know that great leaders are Talent Makers. They understand what it takes to elevate hiring to a strategic capability that pushes the business forward. Smart recruiting is not easy. That’s why we’ve asked some brilliant folks to share the challenges they’ve overcome and the lessons they’ve learned on the road to aligning their people strategy to their business strategy.

Over the last 20 years, Dr. Salima Bhimani has served as a consultant, researcher, educator and systems designer and now, as chief equity and inclusion systems strategist for Alphabet, she shares why we need to be open to trying and potentially failing, and why anything we do around ED&I needs us to be open to learning from each other.
