Whether on the the battlefield or in business, victory -- consistent, repeated victory -- is achieved by teams of talented people.


But what is "talent"? How do you define it? How do you identify it? How do you even begin to know how to look for it?

In this episode, you'll hear my conversation with Mike Sarraille and George Randle, the co-authors of the upcoming book "The Talent War: How Special Operations and Great Organizations Win on Talent".

We'll hit on topics like

  • Why PEOPLE and not PRODUCT are a company's greatest strategic advantage
  • The 9 Foundational Character Attributes of Talent
  • How to develop a talent mindset
  • Where to find the world's greatest leadership incubator
  • and a whole lot more
