How do leaders inspire their HR and recruiting professionals—or drive them into frustration and disengagement? In this episode, Niels Brabandt, Founder of NB Networks and internationally recognised leadership expert, explores the decisive role leadership plays in motivating (or demotivating) the very teams that shape an organisation’s future workforce.

Drawing on real-world examples from Europe’s largest HR and recruiting fair, Brabandt reveals why HR and recruiting are not back-office functions but the sales engine of the “employer brand.” He analyses why flawed KPIs, excessive operational burdens, and poor executive communication undermine motivation, and he outlines the leadership behaviours that build trust, foster engagement, and turn HR into a strategic driver of organisational success.

For decision makers who want to win the global talent race, this episode delivers clear and actionable leadership insights. Niels Brabandt shows why leadership behaviour is the number one factor behind retention, performance, and long-term business success.
