We are entering an era of “one-person billion dollar companies, which was previously considered unrealistic. The world is divided into two groups of companies: those that carry the backpack of legacy processes built for humans, and those that are born without it in the AI world. This is a huge opportunity for startups and scaleups – but only if they take it seriously now.

The biggest mistakes in recruiting often come not from candidates, but from unclear needs in the company. Come find out what most often holds back the selection of people today, how to set up a controlled process with clear criteria and how to translate employee performance impressions into measurable data. The practical workshop will be led by Eva Vacíková (lecturer and expert in human resources management) and Beata Holá (occupational psychologist and lecturer in talent management at FSS MU).

Stop boring investors with technical details and learn to sell a vision that engages them.
