Recruiting and Building a High Performing Team – Kyle Gorman


It has been in the news lately that America is experiencing the greatest job growth in the last 50+ years!  That is really great news, no doubt about it!


But, if you are in charge of hiring people to fill the needs of your organization, that could be a daunting task in this environment! You have needs that require a special skill type. You can’t afford to hire just anyone! You need to make sure the people you are interviewing are right for the job!  How do you do that?


My guest today is Kyle Gorman, CEO of Gorman Recruiting. His life passion is to help you build a high performing team that you will be able to depend on and will help your organization to grow and to thrive! 


Kyle is also the host of the “Employer Blueprint Podcast” and he is here today to help us understand his unique approach to ministry by helping others in their business. His approaches work ethic with a unique, distinct plan that has been proven to work: Be prayerful; Be team centric and to Be adaptive in what he is doing!  He is a husband, father to four children, 3 boys and 1 girl. 


Help me welcome to the program, Kyle Gorman. Kyle, thank you for taking the time to come on the program and share with us today!


The first question I always start with is this. Other than that brief bio I just shared, tell us in your own words, “Who is Kyle Gorman?”


How did you get started in this line of work?


You say this is also your ministry. How so?


As I shared in my opening statement, how can a business ensure they are hiring the right people for the jobs they are trying to fill? In this environment with more jobs than people, how can a company know they are recruiting or hiring the right people for the jobs they have available?


START PT 2 Do you work mainly with the business in recruiting potential employees and staff?


How do you find those people that the company needs?


There is a lot of backlash for standing up for Christian values in today’s society. How is that affecting the work place?


How can companies make their policies clear to potential applicants and not be labeled as discriminatory in their hiring practices?


What are some of the basic principles a hiring manager or boss needs to know to effectively lead a team in today’s employment culture?

About your host

Profile picture for Robert Thibodeau

Robert Thibodeau

I am a 12 year Army veteran as both enlisted and as a commissioned Cavalry Officer.
I am now a retired law enforcement supervisor...

I had my own business for seven years before I entered law enforcement.

As a cop, I was injured on the job on May 12, 2007 and after several surgeries over a couple of years, forced to retire in 2011.

As I was looking down the road to “what am I going to do next?” I started what is now known as a podcast (I had no clue at the time).

Within six months of starting (what I called) “My online radio program” I was offered an opportunity to be on nationwide AM radio. I learned A LOT in one year of doing that!

I then started the online Christian radio platform "Evangelism Radio" in the fall of 2010. It has had listeners in 160+ nations and all 50 states. We host 50+ Christian broadcasters on a weekly basis. We have been operating 24/7 for almost 14 years now. We have been rated #1 in the world by Shoutcast. com on several occasions in our genre. We recently transferred ownership of Evangelism Radio to another ministry so I could concentrate full time on podcasting, preaching and writing.

In 2018, I started the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast to conduct interviews with Christian influencers from all walks of life and to play their interviews on the radio station. (The KCR Podcast has its own time slot on Evangelism Radio)!
We now have over 1600 episodes and almost 1100 interviews (in just over 6 years).

Looking out at the future of online Christian media, I noticed there was no viable platforms that catered only to the Christian podcast market.

In 2023, we launched a networking platform called, "FaithCasters" which connects "Great Christian podcasters with Great Christian Guests!" This helps to promote the work you do through podcast interviews! Check it out at https://FaithCaster.org

We recently launched "FaithCaster Academy" which serves as a training hub for ALL of our trainings (podcast training / speaker training / interview training, etc.). Members receive access to ALL of our training programs for one low, monthly membership fee. Members also receive FREE access to ALL of the LIVE trainings I conduct (1 or 2 per month) - while non-members have to pay to access the live trainings.

Between my podcast training program, conducting podcast interviews, appearing on other podcasts as guests, speaking at conferences (in person and virtually) and the podcast networking platform, I guess you could say “I’m all in” when it comes to podcasting and online media!

My total focus is to do all we can to assist you to “Get The Word Out” about your mission, services, products, ministry, books, business, etc.
