Workshops & Webinars
It’s make or break for recruiters. It’s time your leaders knew talent acquisition’s impact on productivity and profitability. Let’s show them and make you robot-proof.
I help recruiters become robot-proof hiring partners, company leaders value!
Workshops that take talent acquisition from “cost centre” to strategic partners
The AI hype cycle of “we can automate hiring end-to-end” is finally toning down! But that doesn’t mean recruiters can be complacent.
Too many company leaders still perceive talent acquisition as a cost or admin centre. Too few grasp the value that you bring. Too many need to cut costs.
TA calls me in when they want to shift perception.
I help recruiters go from the “admin misperception” to impact-making, confident and valued hiring partners, through micro changes you can implement instantly!

Don’t take my word for it!
Katrina delivered an amazing, inspiring full-day workshop for my team at OLX Group. She kept a group of 40 recruiters and recruitment coordinators from all over the world engaged and fully focused for the entire duration of the session, and helped us build specific action plans to improve how we work with stakeholders, our communication and candidate experience. Katrina’s energy and wit are unparalleled. I never thought organising a workshop could be that entertaining! She is a real pleasure to work with, spreading energy and enthusiasm, while providing support and reflection when needed. It was a real pleasure and I’d be happy to work with her again!
In November 2023, Katrina conducted a series of two online workshops on Candidate Experience for PwC CEE. With energy that kept the audience engaged throughout, she shared both inspiration and practical tips—small elements that can make a significant difference in enhancing the candidate experience. Katrina’s expertise and dynamic presentation style made these sessions highly valuable for all 100+ attendees. 
Wow!! I expected something great and Katrina brought awesome! A true injection of energy and inspiration brought to my recruiter team and a boost to their morale. We all left buzzing with new ideas and approaches and that were transferable into any recruitment sector. I would highly recommend Katrina and know all my recruitment team would too. Thank you Katrina for ‘bringing it’ 🙂 
Katrina facilitated a fabulous two day workshop to help us improve our attraction strategy and recruitment process through the lens of candidate experience. Katrina brought energy, fun and humour as well as her willingness to challenge process and mindset, and her obvious depth and breadth of experience across talent acquisition. This workshop has been a catalyst to making significant changes to how we resource recruitment in the People team as well as some clear goals and recommendations for next steps that have been accepted by the Executive team at Camphill Village Trust.

What makes these workshops different?
Besides the energy I bring to them, which is evident in all the reviews and many images on this page, I create workshops with the principles of design-thinking. Which has been stolen borrowed from the world of product design.
Design thinking is a process for creative problem solving, and it has a human-centered core. If you know anything about me or have read The Robot-Proof Recruiter, you will know that I am a champion of human first (or candidate centric) recruitment. Beacsue it delivers the best results both now and in the future.
What's the ROI? 💰
Without knowing your exact recruitment challenges, it is hard to calculate.
But a few ways possibilities could be… (deliberately being pessimistic about the results you’ll achieve!)
- What is the cost to the business each day a role remains open? Your hiring manager should know this figure for their role. How much would the business save if your team reduced the time-to-hire by just one day for every role?
- What is the current cost of poor hiring manager partnerships? Divide up the recruiter’s salary to get their hourly. Then times that figure by the hours wasted to-ing and fro-ing, while they reject candidate after candidate, cancel interviews last minute, and generally do all of those things that irk us delay successful hiring. What if we reduced the time wasted by a measly 10%?
- Then there’s the cost of candidate ghosting, reliance on agencies, poor employer branding, [insert what popped up]… and these can all be reduced.
