Scott MacGregor: Gratitude Attracts ‘Amazing People’

Scott MacGregor is the founder &amp; CEO of SomethingNew LLC, one of the fastest-growing talent strategy companies in the country. SomethingNew is a record seven-time recipient of the American Business Award for Innovation and winner of Best of Staffing. Growing up, he had dreams of becoming a professional athlete, but a career-ending injury in college forced him to pivot and refocus his energy into business. He was the youngest National Account Manager in the history of Pitney Bowes, a Fortune 500 Company, and at the age of 29, he took a bold leap into the startup world. After 10 years of putting the plan together for SomethingNew, Scott launched the company that redefines talent acquisition and recruiting.  In 2020, he asked himself, “How can I give back more? How can I help more people?” The answer to that came in the form of a private membership community called Talent Champions Council. The idea behind the community was to teach leadership principles, spread his ‘People Over Everything’ mantra, and help industry leaders uplevel their businesses. In just two short years, the platform has amounted to over 500 members in 29 countries, and hosted 140 live,  interactive events.  When Scott came up with the idea for SomethingNew, he was dedicated to building a company that gave back. He was able to combine his passion for learning about people’s unique stories and philanthropy by publishing the Standing O! books. Each book features prominent CEOs, professional athletes, bestselling authors, Olympians, military leaders, and more who share chapters of gratitude for life lessons learned, and 100% of the proceeds go to charity. The books have supported amazing organizations such as, Elevate New York, Look for the Good Project, Special Operations Warrior Foundation, Blankets of Hope, and Warrior Rising. Listen to today’s episode to learn more about Scott’s entrepreneurial journey, the charities that he’s passionate about, and his interpretation of what it means to be bigger than yourself.  Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, TuneIn, Simplecast, or on your favorite podcast platform.  Topics Covered:Why philanthropy is the cornerstone of all his business venturesScott’s passion for bringing together international leaders to share their knowledge and skills around building talentThe work ethic, discipline, and resiliency required to succeed in both athletics and business Epic Standing O! stories, from Olympians, CEOs, Navy Seals, and professional athletesHow Scott evaluates communication skills, empathy, and resourcefulness during the hiring processTransformative conversations that have taken place at Talent Champions Council events How Scott grows by constantly staying curious and building genuine relationships  About our guest: SomethingNew WebsiteTalent Champions Council WebsiteStanding O!

12. People Over Everything with Scott MacGregor

In this episode, Marcus Edwardes speaks with Scott MacGregor, Founder and CEO of SomethingNew LLC and Talent Champions Council. He is the four-time author of the Standing O! series of books, and a record seven-time winner of the American Business Award for Innovation.Listen in as Scott explains why the best recruiters seek to find alignment between client and candidate and why he sees those in talent acquisition as consultants rather than as salespeople. He also shares why he tends to shun metrics and quotas and focuses instead on allowing recruiters to set their own goals.Scott then discusses why talent strategy is the number one thing that any leader needs to focus on. He lays out the common misconceptions around creating a great company culture, cautioning businesses to avoid relying solely on what he calls “cultural Febreze”.He reiterates that putting metrics front and center of any strategy is not going to lead to optimal results in the long run. Instead, the quality of the people—employees, clients, and candidates—needs the most attention if any company wants to thrive.What You’ll Learn in This Episode:●      [01:26] Why Scott named his agency “SomethingNew”●      [03:47] The mindset that recruiters need to succeed in today’s industry●      [09:42] Helping recruiters achieve their goals●      [13:03] How the pandemic has forced companies to change their approach to evaluating employees●      [17:27] Why culture is often misunderstood and how to create a great one●      [22:34] Creating advocates instead of adversaries●      [29:12] Three questions to ask if profitability is an issue●      [31:40] Having a strong brand as an insurance policy●      [34:59] Focusing on the end result rather than KPIs●      [38:26] Why SomethingNew does everything differently●      [44:47] About the Talent Champions CouncilKey quotes:●      “We seek one thing and one thing alone: alignment. It’s not rocket science: We’re looking for alignment between what our client wants and what our candidate wants.”●      “I don’t care how many emails they send out. I don’t care how many phone calls they make. I don’t care how many candidates they interview. I care about the candidate experience and the client experience being exceptional.”●      “The number one predictor of success or failure for any company is the teams they build. Talent strategy always was and always will be the number one thing that any leader should be focused on.”●      “Every day, you have an opportunity to either create advocates or adversaries.”●      “The end result is twofold: Are candidates having a phenomenal candidate experience, and is our customer having a phenomenal customer experience? If the answer is ‘yes’, we’ve won.”
