After taking a few weeks off from writing over the holidays, Dave and I are both excited to embark upon 2016 with a renewed sense of curiosity about the psychology of recruiting.

To start the year, Dave will be focused on bringing you insight concerning the psychology of persuasion. While he touched on this topic during the Edge conference last year, there is much more to learn.

So much of recruiting is about getting the candidate to the final “yes.” We’ll start exploring this topic today.

In addition to covering new material, Dave will be trying a new format for delivering content.

Instead of writing, he’ll be recording.

Starting today, each of Dave’s posts will be an audio podcast lasting four to five minutes.

Here is today’s WorkPuzzle:  An Introduction to the Psychology of Persuasion, by Dr. David Mashburn
