There are only two things certain in life: death and taxes.
And the latter is decidedly easier to tackle.

On this week’s episode, we talk with Piotr Tomaszewski, a Design Manager at Taxfix, a German company that created a mobile application that allows its users to either answer a questionnaire to speed up filling forms or connects them with a tax advisor that does it all for you.

During the interview, Piotr goes into detail about career changes, leaps of faith he took and how managerial work evolved from what it used to be. He talks us through how many companies adopted the “me vs them” strategy, how recruiting often can be biased against certain candidates and how talent acquisition is much more than just finding the perfect fit for your organisation.

He also shares his insights on:
  • Differences between Culture Fit and Culture Add in hiring
  • The importance of intuition in everyday scenarios
  • Internal Agency model vs Embedded Model
  • How to engage and plan in advance with on-site vs remote employees
  • The Norman Door
...and much more!

Tune in to this week’s Tech Leaders’ Intel to learn about Designer’s role within a company, but also receive recommendations on books that will help you broaden your professional horizons.
