People-first: featuring Lars Minns and Steve Ehretsman

In this episode, Donald is joined by Lars Minns, Chief HR Officer at Mercedes-Benz, North America and Steve Ehretsman, Founder & CEO at Shamrock Prosthetics, Inc., to discuss the importance of building trust and care between leaders and employees. Lars and Steve also share their personal journeys and how experiences in their lives outside of work have made them more effective leaders.

People-first companies prioritize their people and foster a culture of hiring. They understand that people are their most valuable asset, so they treat all their people practices — especially hiring — as strategic, rather than administrative, functions. On The Greenhouse podcast: People-first, join host Donald Knight, Chief People Officer at Greenhouse, as he sits down with individuals at innovative organizations to discover how these companies prioritize their people.
