Carolyn Carpeneti Presents Video Series on the Art & Science of Hiring Great People


San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) February 25, 2014

Carolyn Carpeneti, a leading executive recruiter who has helped build out leadership teams at such iconic brands as Williams-Sonoma, Levi Strauss, Puma, University of Phoenix and Mint.com, announces today the release of a series of short videos examining the executive recruiting business.

The newly published videos include “The Traditional Executive Search Model is Broken,” “Executive Recruiting: The Art vs. The Science,” and “Questions to Ask When Hiring an Executive Recruiter.” All the videos can be found at http://carpeneti.com/about.

As founder of the Northern California-based firm Carolyn Carpeneti & Company, Carpeneti has partnered with companies spanning the spectrum of large global brands to small, developing start-ups.

Carpeneti works closely with CEOs to scale their executive teams and drive full corporate build-outs. She also coaches executives and teams on how to create inspiring corporate cultures that flourish and drive growth throughout an organization.

Carpeneti believes that a successful executive placement happens when you prioritize personality and cultural fit above experience and education. “It takes a brave executive to look beyond a candidate’s pedigree and focus on the art, not the science, of hiring great people.”

In her executive recruiting work Carpeneti also explores the impact of positive energy in corporate cultures. Carpeneti comments that while “talking about the power of positive energy treads perilously close to ‘new age’ speak, it is an extremely worthwhile examination as the presence of positive energy can single-handedly transform companies.”

She adds, “I believe that positive energy inspires people to try and do more. It gives people the passion to unite to do things otherwise thought impossible. There are enormous successes that come from organizations performing at their optimum, with their leadership positively focused and their employees thriving.”

Through speeches, panels and workshops, Carpeneti’s engaging techniques have influenced numerous leaders on how to successfully grow their business, hire game-changing talent and unleash positive energy in their organizations.
