Welcome to the latest edition of The Big Squeeze by Tangerine Search—your go-to resource for the most innovative and impactful recruitment strategies and top talent resources.
Building Values-Aligned Leadership & Inclusive Teams
Have you ever wondered why an organization’s internal culture often feels so different from its external brand? Or why we hear about the importance of diverse hiring, yet the data on diversity rarely shows much change?
The truth is, if we want to hire leaders who are committed to building equitable and inclusive teams, we need to ensure our hiring process reflects our core values, mission and the future we aspire to create.
Now is the best time to re-examine how your hiring process aligns with the culture you wish to cultivate. Let’s build leadership teams that reflect the change we want to see.
Mark your calendars and join my colleagues and me on LinkedIn LIVE on Tuesday, September 24 at 9 a.m. PST for an honest conversation about Hiring for Equity, Inclusion & Values.
In this relaxed hour-long panel event, we’ll explore ways to build a harmonious relationship between your hiring process and your organizational values and internal culture—resulting in deeper equity and collective success.

Q: What are the key trends shaping the future of recruitment? A:Key trends include the rise of AI and machine learning for candidate sourcing, the increasing importance of employer branding, and the shift toward remote and hybrid work models.
