Edan Haddock - Total Talent
Raw, unfiltered insight from inside talent acquisition and talent management. No guests. No sponsors. No agenda.
Each week Edan Haddock, Head of Talent and People Experience at Movember, shares honest reflections from the front line of talent. Straight from the tools, for the people who live it every day.
Episodes tackle the things the conference circuit tends to avoid: why skills-based hiring stalled, how to build a talent tech stack without the vendor gloss, what design thinking actually does for a hiring brief, why "do more with less" is a myth worth dismantling, and whether Australian talent acquisition still asks permission to belong in the global conversation.
This is an independent, practitioner-led show. Nothing here is sold, sponsored or ghost-written. If you work in talent and want an unvarnished view from someone still doing the job, start anywhere.
