In this episode of the Hard Knock University Podcast, Mark Caples is joined by Chris Day and Seth Caples to break down the leadership lessons hidden inside Avengers: Infinity War. What can project managers and leaders learn from the Mad Titan himself, Thanos? Surprisingly—a lot.
✅ Ruthless decision making ✅ Visionary leadership vs. autocratic control ✅ Delegation, resource management, and sacrifice ✅ The costs of executing big visions without feedback ✅ Comparing Thanos' leadership with Tony Stark, Captain America & Thor ✅ What Infinity War teaches us about team cohesion and crisis management
As always, we mix leadership lessons with real-world #HardKnockLessons, project management insights, and a few laughs along the way. Plus, we touch on everything from robot dogs to bad Netflix writing to running projects when everything seems to fall apart.
🎯 Whether you're a Marvel fan, a project manager, or just trying to lead through the chaos — this episode delivers.
