Hey there - we just published a new essay.

Nikola Jokic (a.k.a. “The Joker”) is possibly one of the greatest professional basketball players of all time. And nobody saw him coming. Why?

Sports teams spend many millions of dollars and thousands of hours attempting to identify good talent. And yet even they make poor picks all the time and don’t see stars coming (like Jokic, or Tom Brady). That’s a little wild.

We wrote about this, which we think is one explanation for why most companies are bad at hiring.

Until next week,

- Carter and Jordan
