In this very first episode of The People Watching Podcast I speak to Emma Warren, the founder of Elite Staffing Solutions, a Somerset based recruitment business.
We talk about how Emma came to set up her own businesses, the people challenges she has faced, and how these challenges impacted on her personally as a business owner. We talk navigating new motherhood whilst also setting up a business, coping with the emotional rollercoaster that was the pandemic and what businesses can do to tackle people challenges in a post pandemic world.
I loved chatting to Emma and hearing about how passionate she is in creating an ethical recruitment business that really does place its people first. Emma is honest, vulnerable and shares some really personal experiences that I know will help other people.
