My guest today was Eric Stanley, founder of M2N, a social impact company dedicated to making the workforce more equitable by focusing on skills-based hiring.
Eric shares his journey from working at Northwestern Mutual and Johnson & Johnson to scaling Passageways' revenue and launching M2N.
Our conversation delves into the importance of hiring based on skills rather than status, the challenges of finding and retaining diverse talent, and the impact of apprenticeships and innovative hiring practices.
Eric also highlights the development of the Empower platform, which matches job seekers with employers based on skills, and insights into the potential of apprenticeships and the efforts to make hiring more inclusive and representative of society.
