Nicos Marcou takes us on a humorous journey from the inception of resumes to the present day where he addresses the elephant in the room and questions why in such a transformative age, do we solely rely on such a limiting tool as a resume for candidate sourcing. He outlines alternatives and challenges the corporate world to take on a more creative approach that creates a more welcoming corporate culture. Nicos is a Talent Leader with over 15 years of international experience in talent development and organizational design. Nicos speaks, writes, and consults on leadership, change, and innovation. His work focuses on what leaders need to do, to manage and inspire teams in such a complex and ever-changing world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
