Hi! I’m Lars, and I’m glad you’re here. 👋

I’ve spent over 25 years in various recruiting, talent, people, and strategy roles. Over those years, I’ve established myself as a trusted industry leader and advocate for progressive people practices.

As Founder and CEO of Amplify Talent, I’ve been at the forefront of transforming people practices with progressive talent strategies for category-leading companies including Hootsuite, SpaceX, NPR, Plaid, Vimeo, Dashlane, Duo Security, and more.

As a writer, author, podcast host, teacher, former IESE School of Founders guest lecturer, LinkedIn Learning instructor, and global keynote speaker, I’ve honed a nuanced perspective on what it takes to build successful businesses in today’s world of work.
