Episode Synopsis
Send us a textJoining me on scalr sagecast this week is Peter Treloar, founder of TALY Australia, a platform rethinking how we use personality profiling in the workplace.Peter’s career started in market research and insights, including building and successfully exiting Telmy. Along the way, he realised a problem that’s plagued HR for years: organisations invest in personality assessments, but the results often sit unused in systems and filing cabinets. More of a tick-box exercise than information that can really help support/drive an individual's career. With TALY, he’s set out to change that - turning static profiling into real-time, AI-powered insights that help leaders make better people decisions when it matters most. From coaching managers before a tough feedback session to spotting potential friction points in a team, TALY is all about making behavioural data practical, contextual, and impactful.In this episode, we cover:Peter’s shift from market researcher to tech founder.Why traditional profiling misses the mark, and how TALY fixes it.The challenges of building as a non-technical founder.And why understanding people dynamics is more important than ever in distributed, hybrid workplaces.I always enjoy catching up with Peter as he brings curiosity, pragmatism, and a real focus on solving problems that matter - it's inspiring! If you’re in HR, leadership, or just want to get more out of the people data you already have, this one’s worth a listen.The scalr sagecast is proudly brought to you by scalr, a recruitment and talent advisory business headquartered in Melbourne, Australia.
