Episode-linked context, not an unsupported claim of authorship.

Trust peer back-channels over provided references, and probe harder than feels comfortable.

Hire for the specific mandate at this specific stage, not the most impressive resume available.

Get granular on the outcome, spike, and 90-day plan before opening a product-leader search.

Build career capital by making visible, others-verifiable impact — not by collecting logos.

Start from the best companies for a skill, but never assume a great logo means a great individual.

Vet a recruiter by testing whether they can play back your brief and name candidates on the spot.

Build relationships with great people long before you have a role open, with no agenda.
