The Hiring Blindspot That Sinks Growth

What this episode covers

Hiring ahead of demand feels like the right move - but it can leave companies overextended and vulnerable. In this episode, Sam Jacobs and Kathleen Booth unpack the blind spots around hiring and firing, the cost of ruinous empathy, and why transparency is the only way to maintain morale. They also explore how AI is reshaping marketing teams and forcing leaders to rethink org design from the ground up.
