A large portion of our works within CPG and they are keen on staying competitive in a rapidly changing market. How can they leverage innovative recruitment strategies and talent acquisition methods, especially in the supply chain sector, to gain a competitive edge and address the unique challenges they face?

The CPG industry often deals with complex and diverse supply chain networks. Could you share insights into how companies can ensure diversity, equity, and inclusion within their supply chain teams, and how this can positively impact their business outcomes in the consumer goods sector?

Building CS Recruiting from the ground up and scaling it to a ~40-person team is an impressive achievement. Could you walk us through the strategies you implemented to foster sustainable growth and offer advice for aspiring entrepreneurs looking to achieve similar success?

⁠You recently emphasized⁠ in a social post the importance of viewing a group of people working together as a team rather than a family. Can you share some specific strategies or experiences from CS Recruiting that have helped foster a strong sense of teamwork among your employees?

You made a compelling point in your ⁠recent post⁠ about DEIB (Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging) being not just a moral imperative but also a smart business strategy.
