Mark Zuckerberg says you should only hire someone if you'd be happy to work for them in an alternate universe. But John and Rich push back: could that mindset quietly lead to building a team of “lookalikes”? In this episode, they unpack the risks of hiring for comfort over complement, how values alignment trumps personality match, and why culture-fit hiring often misses the mark.
Whether you're scaling a team or making your next leadership hire, this episode will challenge the way you think about recruitment, trust, and what makes a team truly effective.
