If you're a CEO or VP at a startup, try to make a small habit change. Instead of saying "we need to find the best talent" start saying "we need to find the best talent FOR US" There IS no 'best' talent. Just like there is no best vacation spot. --- An AE that would be great at Gong would flop around like a fish on your team without the sales infrastructure. --- A VP of finance that would be great at Headspace would be an expensive catastrophe at your startup. They wouldn't last 13 months. Maybe not even 6. --- A data scientist that would be great at Affirm in SFBA would not jive with your 3 person team's vibe who are mostly located in Wisconsin. --- Getting super clear that there is a BEST FOR YOU allows you to get precise on messaging, what the job title is, writing the JD, where to recruit, and what day one on the job looks like. Best for you. Not best.

RevOps is probably one of the most valuable roles in a company. A great CEO can be very passionate, but they have to be able to make decisions based on data collected by #RevOps, not just based on their gut. You want to hire a good analyst early on, say around $5M, to really start to analyze your processes. By $5M, you're going to start to really use the data you’re collecting. Then as you grow to $10M, you’ll need maybe two analysts. When you get to $20M, you're going to need someone who has some management experience to build a strong RevOps organization. I couldn't survive without the incredible RevOps leadership of Jake Goldfield.

🦄 Unicorns do exist.... There's a growing trend within the D&A industry for hiring managers to state they're looking for a unicorn A unicorn being a mythical creature that doesn't exist This is often said with a nervous laugh as a way of saying "we're not sure whether what we're looking for exists" And it does.....It always does.... There is no D&A job on this earth that is unfillable The person will 100% exist There may not be many of them, possibly even only one of them in certain instances But they do exist What makes them a unicorn is the constraints and parameters you've got to work with If you've got the; 💰 Money  💥 Brand 🌍 Flex on location There isn't a role you can't fill If you don't have those things then you probably ought to tone down your expectations to align to your constraints #data #analytics

This may not be the best idea, but my intellectual curiosity won. To all the companies and executives that had layoffs recently I pose this question: Work still needs to get done. How are teams in your company handling the workload? Are you using AI as leverage? If so, how? If you need help with projects, but can't hire a F/T employee there are plenty of people who can help. I'm available for market/media research, consumer trends, upfront presentations and ideation, storytelling and campaign effectiveness projects. If you need help let's talk!!

𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫? 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐦𝐲 𝐇𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐰! (𝐌𝐚𝐱 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞) Remember Max Howell, the coder behind Homebrew? The package manager used by everyone? Turns out, even legends stumble. Like, Google interview stumble. Max couldn't invert a binary tree in their interview. Gasp! Seven lines of recursion! The horror! Google's loss, humanity's gain, right? Homebrew wouldn't exist, and craft beer nights would be infinitely duller. But here's the real kicker: is this how we judge talent? Is a single coding puzzle the ultimate filter for innovation? Let's talk about real-world impact. Max built something millions use daily, something that revolutionized software development. That's the metric, folks. So, to all the hiring managers out there, ditch the binary tree blinders. Look for passion, for creativity, for problem-solving beyond the whiteboard. You might just discover the next Max Howell hiding in plain sight. #homebrew #google #failforward #hiringfail #realworldskills #passionnotpuzzles P.S. I can invert a binary tree. But can you brew a killer IPA? 𝐌𝐚𝐱 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥'𝐬 𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭: 𝘩𝘵𝘵𝘱𝘴://𝘵𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳.𝘤𝘰𝘮/𝘮𝘹𝘤𝘭/𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘴/608682016205344768?𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘨=𝘦𝘯 Share your thoughts! Have you ever bombed a tech interview?
