Part 3 continues the conversation with Tim Sackett—staffing executive, prolific blogger, author, and co-founder of the HR Tech 100 Fund.
In this episode, Sackett offers a candid look at his evolution from writing thousands of blog posts to co-authoring books and launching an HR-focused investment fund. The discussion covers:
- What happens when 100 HR professionals each invest \$10,000 into a venture fund built on shared industry experience—and a healthy dose of optimism
- Why years of consistent blogging didn’t garner the same attention as publishing a single book
- How Talent Fix Vol. 2 pushes boundaries more than expected, with chapter titles such as “Hiring Pretty People”* and “The White Guy’s Guide to Diversity”
- And what to expect from his next project—tentatively (and provocatively) titled Scale Your Suck
If you’ve ever asked Tim for free advice and heard, “Buy the book,” this is the episode that explains why.
