People Over Everything- That is Scott's motto in business and life. You can surely tell that this is the way he lives. The company Scott founded, SomethingNew LLC is a recruiting agency. They use technology and their great people to help businesses find great candidates. So many rely on their "gut" for hiring and then have to deal with high turnover and occasionally get lucky. SomethingNew LLC has the science to help companies make great hiring decisions. So providing fish (well matched candidates) and teaching companies how to fish when it comes to finding great people that is repeatable, is the strategy. Scott and his company truly are winners in the hypercompetitive industry of recruiting and talent acquisition . They have been recognized a record 5 times the American Business Award winner for Innovation With Scott, you will get a sincere "what can I do for you?" question that embodies the Giver mindset. He is one that likes to give presents more than get presents and that attitude is contageous. If you are thinking about growing your business, think about how you can help others. Don't think about the payout. The payout is not important. Doing what is right, is. The payouts will come in one form or another. People Over Everything shows how he values others. He celebrates his team and praises their creativity and work. Staying current and fresh with Something New, his staffing company is not easy after 7 years. But he relies on the brilliance of his team and their collaborative efforts to continue to lead the way. "Standing O" is a series of books that celebrates winners and life lessons along with Gratitude. Scott lives a busy life but he makes time for others including his family. We appreciate the great conversation we had with him and know you will enjoy it as well!
