Inward Relationship has the lowest success rate in the modern game.
Bowles, Eberflus, Flores
Uninspiring delegators.

Across recent HC cycles, the data shows that hiring from the top two boxes correlates with roughly 2.9x better odds of sustained success.
Any NFL owners out there, hit me up and I can help you avoid yet another mistake.
I'm looking at you Browns! ๐

Not a @browns hype video, instead itโs big love fest โ as small a way to say thank you to this team.
Sound on!
If you love it, pls share and like it.
Favorite moments in the video include @zadariussmith loving on @JoeFlacco, Kevin losing his mind at the end, and all the killer plays from our Dawgs.
We love this team, and your fans around the ๐ thank you for a magical season.

Private equity requires CEOs and management to be hands on.
But what does that really mean?
Among other things, it means burrowing into the details and root cause of an issue vs relying solely on chain of command.

Other hands-on examples from my recent interviews: a ceo who interviews all sales reps before offer, a ceo on the road with delivery drivers to solve for an efficiency challenge, a cfo who regularly goes on sales calls to understand customer/pricing dynamics
What are you doing?

Whatโs happening to ambition?
Itโs officially been dethroned by FLEXIBILITY as the dominant career driver. Even among execs.
People will still work hard, but on their terms
All levels, all generations
And itโs here to stay
