Questions Include:
- Given a possible recession, what are your predictions for the labor market in the UK and elsewhere in 2023?
- Your latest book is called 'Digital Talent'. How do you define that and what are the key traits that 'digital talent' exhibits?

- You recently gave a presentation at Recfest about the importance of personalization in the candidate and employee experience. How do you see this evolving?
- You recently partnered with Recruitee - with input from partners at Checkr, Inc. Bryq & Equalture - to take a closer look at Unbiased Hiring and how we can build more diverse recruitment teams. What were the findings and how do we eliminate bias from the hiring process to help build a diverse workforce?
- Earlier in the year, you were involved in research into corporate wellbeing initiatives. How well do you think businesses support their employees' wellbeing? What are some of the best approaches/interventions that you've seen?
