Your Monday dose of humor...

#mondayfunny #linkedin #taketheleap

We kicked off 2026, and everywhere I look, staffing leaders are finally having a reckoning with their tech stacks. Our tools are supposed to make work easier, but somehow, many agencies are juggling a dozen platforms that rarely play nicely together. Fragmentation isn't just an inconvenience—it's costing teams real productivity, real margin, and real sanity.

This is the year to get ruthless about what stays and what goes. Every disconnected login, every manual export, every "workaround" is a red flag. Start by mapping out every system in your workflow. What's bringing clarity and true impact? What's just adding noise and work for your people?

More agencies are recognizing that less—done right—is so much more. Audit your stack, streamline your processes, and reclaim your team's time for the work that counts.

If you looked at every tool in your stack today, which one would you actually fight to keep?

🚨Learn with Leap ALERT🚨

Overwhelmed by the AI buzz?🌊You're not alone—tools like LLM's are everywhere, but figuring out how to go beyond basic prompts can feel daunting. If you're just dipping your toes into AI, this might be a bit advanced to start with. But if you've mastered prompting and are itching to level up—creating real efficiencies while unleashing your creativity—then combining AI, automation, and MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the perfect next step. It's the mix that turns ideas into powerful, custom systems without the usual tech headaches. 🚀

Let's break it down simply, step by step:

1. Start with AI (Your Creative Brain) 🧠: You've probably used ChatGPT or similar for drafting emails, job descriptions, or candidate summaries. That's your foundation—plain-English prompts drive the whole thing.

2. Add Automation (The Efficiency Engine) ⚙️: Platforms like n8n let you connect apps and automate repetitive flows (e.g., pulling data from LinkedIn → enriching → pushing to your ATS). Great in theory, but manually building them takes forever with node-dragging and debugging.

3. Bridge with MCP (The Magic Connector) 🌉: This is the game-changer. MCP lets advanced AI directly understand and edit automation tools like n8n. You just describe the workflow—"Build a flow that scans LinkedIn for sales reps in Texas, scores them on experience, and adds top matches to insert ATS of choice"—and the AI creates the entire setup: nodes, connections, logic. Clean, accurate, fast.

The result? Your creative ideas become fully automated systems in minutes, not days. Here's how it plays out in recruiting:

Candidate Sourcing on Autopilot 🤝 : Prompt the AI to build a flow that searches LinkedIn, enriches contacts, filters by skills, and loads qualified profiles into your CRM.
Smarter Screening & Outreach✉️: Automate resume parsing from emails, skill-matching against job reqs, scoring, and generating personalized outreach drafts.
Interview Scheduling Magic🗓️: Collect availability, cross-check calendars, propose times, book via Calendly, and notify the team—all hands-free.

This combo isn't beginner territory—it's for when you're ready to build custom tools that give your team a real edge. Low-risk to experiment with, and the time saved on grunt work lets you focus on relationships, strategy, and landing top talent. 💪

STORYTIME  - gather round' the campfire 🔥🔥 📚📚

As a leader have you ever known EXACTLY how you wanted to see your business or run  your day and just never quuuiiiite been able to make it a reality? 

Always using a combination of reports, or a dashboard and ancillary reports you created? 

Well let me help you understand the power of MCP (Model Context Protocol), n8n (automation made easy), and a tool like Replit or Abacus (enter your webapp tool of choice here). 

Here is what was on my wishlist:

💰Integrated Hubspot dash with pipeline, activities, and tasks
📞Integrated Grain dash with conversation summaries and NEXT STEPS 
📩Integrated Outlook for quick what's the daily plan
💟Integrated Gratitude Journal with AI suggestions/weekly summaries/where is my gratitude focused - is it in the right place? 
🙏🏼Daily scripture to stay focused on my faith as well as an entry for daily prayers and a weekly summary of where my prayer is focused
💪🏼Weekly wins - its important to have accomplishments front and center as there are plenty of weeks where you feel like there are none as a business owner. 
 💰Profitability & Finances
👩🏻Personal goals for the year and tracker
🐸Our business goals for the year and tracker
🤖AI news/industry news feed
💻Social media management, content ideas, and reminders

When I tell you I tried a million different journals, entrepreneur downloads, One Note, Evernote, Notion - you name it, I tried it. So when in doubt, build it yourself and with today's tool ANYONE can do it. 

So as we start our fresh new year on this fine Monday - January 5, 2026 - I have the Executive Dashboard of my dreams (I can even upload photos in gratitude and prayer). The power of these tools is limitless...

Is it just me, or does it sometimes feel like everyone's talking about adopting AI, but nobody's sharing what actually works—and what just creates more chaos? There's a big gap between agencies adding AI to their tech stack and actually seeing any real impact from it.

Here's what I've gathered from seeing these tools in action: most agencies are now using AI somewhere, but effectiveness is lagging way behind adoption. We're layering automation onto messy workflows, hoping for a miracle—but meaningful results come from intentional, focused changes, not just plugging in the latest shiny tool.

The key isn't sweeping transformation overnight. Start with targeted, practical applications that your team will truly use—a tool that double-checks job descriptions for bias, or a bot that handles repetitive outreach steps. When tech meets a real pain point (and fits seamlessly), that's where AI starts making a difference you can see and measure.

When's the last time you stepped back to ask, "Is this tool solving a real problem, or just checking an innovation box?"

If you had to pick one part of your recruiting process that still feels stuck in 2022, what would you want AI to actually fix?

#AIAdoption #StaffingTech #NoMoreCheckTheBox #TakeTheLeap #TechnologyTuesday

We spend so much time trying to patch up leaks in our workflow—chasing down late timesheets, fixing invoice errors, and updating records.

But here's the reality: most operational headaches in staffing don't start with the loudest pain point. They start at the source, often with disconnected systems or missing data early in the process.

In 2026, integration complexity is still one of the top challenges agencies face. When your tech doesn't work together, your team loses hours each week on manual workarounds, chasing info across platforms, and cleaning up avoidable messes. It's not just inefficient—it drags down your margins and creates frustration for everyone involved.

So, what's the play?

Start by auditing where your biggest recurring fires start—not where you first spot the smoke.

💙 Are data silos making people duplicate work?
❤️ Is onboarding relying on emails instead of automated workflows?
🧡 Is your ATS acting more like digital storage than a process engine?

Action step: Map out a single core process and flag every manual handoff and disconnected tool. Then ask: what would it look like if your systems actually talked to each other at every step?

Nobody wins awards for "clean handoffs" or "boringly reliable data"—but those are the shifts that build sustainable, scalable operations.

Where is your team still bridging gaps that your tech could be closing for you?
