In a recent episode of Charles' CEO Wisdom podcast, he sat down with Kirsten Toth, a former Team Canada inline hockey athlete and the CEO and founder of Eaconite Consulting. The conversation began with a nostalgic reflection on inline hockey, a sport both Charles and Kirsten have a deep connection with. Kirsten's journey from the rink to the corporate world is fascinating. She has been deeply involved in the startup ecosystem for nearly a decade and has witnessed the ebbs and flows of various industries, especially the blockchain space. Eaconite Consulting, her brainchild, is a staffing agency specializing in technical recruiting, predominantly in the blockchain sector. However, given the recent challenges in the blockchain industry, they've diversified into older industries like VFX, animation, and gaming. Kirsten emphasized the importance of adaptability, work ethic, and the ability to play in a team environment, drawing parallels between her athletic background and her current role as a CEO. The discussion also touched upon the evolving landscape of AI and its implications in the recruitment sector. Kirsten believes that while AI tools like Chat GPT offer significant advantages, the human connection and network remain irreplaceable in the recruitment process.
