“How Guild Builds Talent Instead of Buying It” Alana Brandes, Chief People Officer, Guild

How does investing in people make an organization more agile and resilient?

Why is building talent a better bet than buying it, especially in the age of AI?

My guest on this episode is Alana Brandes, Chief People Officer at Guild.

During our conversation Alana and I discuss:

• Why "follow your passion" is a trap, and why should follow your energy instead.
• Why the employee journey should run "to, through, and beyond."
• How treating people well on the way out builds trust, your brand and increases boomerang hires in the future.
• Why build-versus-buy is a false choice
• How upskilling insiders beats buying AI talent from outside.
