Episode 199

Agency Owner Rollercoaster | Andy Morrell - Creating an open culture and how it can drive performance, growth and positivity.

On this episode I’m joined by Andy Morrell, CEO of Oscar.

He was originally brought into the business thirteen years ago, and sought out to transform the way that they operated overall.

This is an excellent episode as we dive into a lot of interesting topics, the most notable being scaling internally as well as creating a culture of trust.

It was really insightful and I loved picking Andy’s brains, especially when it came to “top billers” and how he managed them.

For recruiters who are wanting to learn more creating a culture of trust, this one’s for you.

For the junior consultants out there, this is an excellent podcast to learn more about the inner workings of a recruitment business!
