About this listen

In this episode, Brian, Chad, and Jasper unpack the parallels between the NFL Draft and modern hiring practices, revealing how talent acquisition in both sports and business often misses the mark. Using examples like Shadeur Sanders and Eli Manning, they highlight the intense scrutiny athletes face, the impact of background on perception, and the unpredictability of talent evaluation. The conversation critiques traditional interviews as theatrical and outdated, urging a shift toward more authentic, empathetic, and insightful hiring methods. From the importance of organizational culture and emotional intelligence to the pitfalls of resume-based assessments, the episode challenges listeners to rethink how we build teams—on the field and in the workplace. With a focus on leadership, cultural fit, and the human element, the hosts make a compelling case for evolving how we assess, recruit, and lead talent in today's world.
