Episode Synopsis
How I Fired My Boss Robyn Grable, the CEO of Talents ASCEND, is James' guest for this episode. Robyn developed a skills-based hiring process that is proactive, intentional and inclusive for veterans, and the disability and justice-involved communities. She is also the Founder of The ASCEND Collective: Veterans ASCEND, Ability ASCEND, Mission 2 ASCEND, the nonprofit arm of her company. Robyn is a proud Navy veteran, and worked in the corporate sector before founding her company. James and Robyn discuss the challenges she faced after leaving the Navy. In her first 12 years in the civilian sector, she worked for 10 different companies. Robyn realized her employers didn't understand the skills she brought to them, and thus didn't challenge her to use them. And, she learned about the hiring process - and decided it was time to change it for the better. Hosted by: James Jones | Release Date: November 1, 2023 | Duration: 31:08
