This week on Tapod we catch up with Andy Steeds—Head of Talent Acquisition at Capgemini Australia & NZ. It’s a great opportunity to revisit Capgemini’s fantastic win in the category of Excellence in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the 2025 ITAs. From managing pay gap to working within an environment of the global 'anti-movement', Capgemini navigates DE&I in a modest, understated but passionate fashion, ensuring it is at the forefront of strategy and purpose.

Buckle in for a special episode of Tapod, where we sit down with Cliff Jurkiewicz, VP Global Strategy & Futurist at Phenom. I have to say this was one of the most interesting conversations I have ever had. From early life as a touring rock star to piloting his own plane and dealing with family tragedy, Cliff has had quite the life. And it doesn’t stop there… The insights into ‘the death of industrial-age recruitment,' the divorce between HR & Talent and a perfect storm of technological and generational change are mind-blowing. Cliff will certainly be back with us, but in the meantime, enjoy this scintillating chat!
