Signaling — The New Currency of Executive Readiness I Loren Greiff

Forget the idea that your résumé is doing the talking. It isn’t. And in 2025, the market isn’t hiring the most qualified — it’s hiring the most inevitable. Everyone is polished. Everyone is credible. Everyone is strategic. But only a fraction are legible — and that’s who gets fast-tracked.   Cost of invisibility: Six to twelve months of lost compensation, stalled opportunities, and being quietly passed over by decision-makers who can’t feel your momentum. This solo episode exposes the new hiring reality: readiness isn’t declared — it’s signaled. Your posts, your comments, your learning velocity, your digital trail… they’re all breadcrumbs executives are using to assess whether you’re moving with the market or fossilizing in place. In this episode: Why inevitability — not experience — is the new competitive advantage The specific signals decision-makers decode before ever reading your résumé How AI platforms like SeekOut, Eightfold, and EasyHire amplify (or expose) your influence and career velocity The difference between hot signals (momentum, learning, collaboration) and cold signals (silence, outdated optics, dormant profiles) Why motion — not volume — is now the primary indicator of executive readiness How to build a signaling system that makes your relevance unmistakable The hidden places recruiters back-channel to validate your reputation and leadership DNA Timestamps (0:00) – Intro (1:12) – Why signaling has overtaken résumés (2:53) – Experience is assumed — inevitability is what gets hired (4:10) – How decision-makers evaluate your digital breadcrumbs (5:49) – Hot signals: publishing ideas, learning in public, collaboration (7:02) – Cold signals: outdated headshots, dormant profiles, silence (8:45) – Momentum as the new credibility (9:58) – Your next opportunity isn’t searching for your résumé — it’s searching for your signal Mic-Drop: Your next opportunity isn’t looking for your past. It’s looking for your motion.   Loved the episode? Join Loren’s 30-Day Blast — the program executives use to gain traction, clarity, and confidence in 30 days.
