About
In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
Talking reimagining talent acquisition with Nate Hewitt of Sapia.ai on their Pink Squirrels Podcast.
We had a very spirited discussion around:
What companies are getting wrong with talent acquisition right now
How companies stand out against their talent competitors (even with little or no budget)
How to think differently about the roles they are filling to access more candidates.

Right, so Iโm back after almost 6 weeks. What did I miss? Other than a new PM in Australia, more gun violence in the USโฆand the fact that, according to the OECD, Australia has the second tightest skills market in the world.
You may have noticed that I havenโt been posting much over the last 5 โ 6 weeks because Iโve been in the US speaking at the annual Association for Talent Development (ATD) conference (funnily enough about employee retention).
Thank you Sparks+Partners Consulting Engineers for inviting me to run one of my favorite workshops, โSoar with Your Strengthsโ for your end of year offsite last week. The main reason I love this workshop is that it gives you permission to stop beating yourself up about things that you arenโt good at and will never be good at by developing strategies to reach the same outcomes using strengths you do have.

Iโve been traveling for a conference and to spend my birthday/4th of July with my sister and best friend.
I love to spend my birthday in the US because itโs the day before the 4th of July โ which makes it a 2-day celebration, in the middle of summer โ with fireworks!
Unfortunately, the following weekend I attended the National Speakers Convention in Nashville, where I promptly got Covid and spent the next weeks isolating instead of going on a road trip with my best friend. The times we live in!
Isolation gave me lots of thinking time โ and lots of time to strategize on new content, so expect fairly regular updates now through the end of the year.
My head is just buzzing with ideas.
Starting with 2 new masterclasses.
Feel free to grab your spot at one or both โ and invite friends and colleagues.

Friday funny. Youโve heard of the KISS Principle, right? Keep It Simple Stupid (or I prefer Silly). Now Iโd like to introduce the KSS Principle!
KISS Principle
My clients have told me for years that one of my superpowers is breaking down complex concepts and making them simple.
In fact, one of the best testimonials Iโve ever gotten came from Mike Saxton, who said,
A few months ago, I was leading a training session, and I mentioned the KISS Principleโฆand one of the participants said, you should rename it the KSS Principle for Kim Seeling Smith. We had a good laugh, but now I find myself saying it frequently.
