Episode notes
Talent Is Your Highest-Return Capital
- Talent delivers the highest returns on capital for entrepreneurs, often 10x–100x.
- Treat hiring as collecting people, not filling roles; get the right humans in early.
Turn Repeated Decisions Into Frameworks
- Create reusable frameworks to avoid re-deriving decisions and speed management.
- Document patterns you repeat so your team can apply them consistently.
Diagnose Why Work Isn't Done
- Diagnose underperformance by asking: did they not know, not know how, not want to, or were blocked?
- Fix communication, training, timing, or remove blockers before blaming motivation.
