About this episode

Nitin speaks with Soreya Senior about the distinction between businesses that merely survive and those that truly thrive. They explore the importance of working selectively with clients who genuinely want your services, rather than accepting any opportunity. The conversation examines how different generations—Millennials and Gen Z—approach work differently, and how leaders can adapt their management style accordingly rather than relying on outdated motivational frameworks.

Soreya shares insights on behavioural change as a critical leadership tool and discusses strategies for motivating recruiters beyond financial incentives alone. The episode covers practical approaches to setting targets and goals that drive meaningful progress. For recruitment leaders and business owners, this conversation offers actionable perspectives on building teams that perform at their best while maintaining a culture that resonates with today's workforce.
