À propos de ce contenu audio

Built by People Leaders is a podcast for HR, People, and L&D leaders navigating the pace, complexity, and uncertainty of growth-stage organizations — from scale-ups to fast-moving, ambitious companies across industries.

Hosted by Daria Rudnik — Team Architect, Executive Leadership Coach, and former Chief People Officer — the show explores how people leaders can navigate growth, complexity, and constant change while building cultures, capabilities, and leadership that truly drive business forward.

In each episode, Daria sits down with experienced in-house HR and People leaders who are building the people side of scale — from designing leadership development that keeps up with change, to earning trust at the executive table, to turning people strategy into business impact.

Daria brings a global perspective shaped by her work with clients across six continents, her time at Deloitte, and her leadership through global financial crises, wars, and the COVID-19 pandemic. She is the author of CLICKING: A Team Building Strategy for Overloaded Leaders and co-author of The AI Revolution: Thriving Within Civilization’s Next Big Disruption.

If you’re building and leading the People function inside a fast-moving company, this podcast gives you a seat at the table — where impact begins from within.
