In this episode, Andrew Hasty takes us from the skies of World War II to the heart of modern leadership. 🎯

Using the story of B-17 bombers and survivorship bias, he shows why focusing only on the numbers can make us miss what really matters — grit, resilience, and those unmeasurable “intangibles” your best team players bring every day. 🎙️🔥

It’s data meets heart in the most unexpected way.

Key Takeaways:

  • Survivorship bias impacts leadership when we only evaluate those who "return" or succeed visibly.
  • Focusing only on KPIs limits our view of performance and potential.
  • “Missing bullets” are the unseen efforts and values that contribute to team success.
  • Recognition should extend beyond numbers to include resilience, grit, loyalty, and effort.
  • Promoting solely on quantitative performance may overlook future leaders.
