Greg Savage has a career spanning four decades, founder of 4 highly successful businesses, a trusted advisor and respected voice across the global recruitment and professional services industries, and a regular keynote speaker at conferences around the world.

Greg and I talk about the future of recruitment, the necessity of change, the skills technology can replace, staying productive, and personal insights. Part 2 of this 5 part podcast (part 1 can be found here) focusses on the power and necessity of change, asking Greg questions such as:

• People attend events on candidate engagement, yet do not implement the recommendations afterwards. Why do you think this is?
• For the industry to embrace candidate engagement, is a large Enron-type event needed, or will we simply see incremental market-share takeover from the smaller, more dynamic companies?
• What advice would you give to people new to social media marketing?
• How do you personally help agencies understand the immediate benefits of a new candidate engagement strategy?
