Episode 27: Impact Hiring
With Kim Kelley, Co-Founder and CEO of Pepelwerk.
On this episode, I’m joined by Kim Kelley, co-founder and CEO of Pepelwerk, a technology company designed to help close the gap between social impact and business needs allowing companies to proactively source, upskill, reskill and hire talent. Offering a job is one of the most meaningful and impactful things that a company can do, so Kim and I discuss the importance impact centered recruiting can have on the organization, employees and the community.
Here’s what you’ll learn about in this episode:
Why hiring on educational or technical skills alone will leave you unprepared to help your company grow and thrive in this new era of work.
How Gen Z is taking the lead and changing the face of the hiring process.
The importance of bridging the gap between the new generation of workers and the older generation to transform the future of work. When a resume is an effective tool for recruitment and when it’s not.
How corporations can build a talent pipeline and create a diverse and skilled workforce.

“If you’re doing hiring in the same way, using applications, resumes, job boards, postings, and praying—everything is so reactive. You are going to miss out on the talent of the next generation, you’re going to really struggle to help your company grow and thrive…if you can’t find a new way to think about how you bring in talent into your organization.”
