Hoewel we geen panklare diversity recruiting tool hebben, hebben we inmiddels wel de nodige ervaring opgedaan met hoe LinkedIn kan worden ingezet ten behoeve van diversity recruiting.
Tijdens de webcast zullen Henk en ik deze ervaringen met jullie delen. Zo zullen we ingaan op de mogelijkheid om LinkedIn campagnematig in te zetten en zullen we delen hoe creatief gebruik kan worden gemaakt van de grote hoeveelheid data die beschikbaar is.
What are the 5 core principles of successful leadership? @nordicvibenordicvibe
Taking the Leadership roles has been one of my most rewarding parts of my career. It has also been the most challenging part - daunting even. Over the years I have learnt from my own experiences but also collected advice from inspirational leaders who I have had close contact with. I have boiled these down into the absolute most key principles that guide me - Core principles. When in a tough situation or dealing with a new challenge these pointers have helped me to lead successfully. Acting like a compass or guide. The purpose of my workshop for AMCHAM will be to share my Core principles with you and inspire you to start your own list. A list that will guide you through your Leadership journey. A journey I highly recommend that you take!

Building A Strong Engineering Culture - my talk from BBC Develop 2013Kevin Goldsmith

I use a lot of examples from Spotify (where I am a Director of Engineering). As usual, I go a bit light on the bullets, since I prefer to talk, but I think you can still get the gist of my points.
