Welcome to Confessions of a Vistage Chair, a podcast by Talent Harbor, where we have real, behind-the-scenes conversations with Vistage Chairs. They share honest stories and practical insights on leadership growth, peer advisory groups, and what actually happens in Vistage meetings.
In this episode, Dick Singer gets honest about how most companies are hiring fast and firing slow when it should be the exact opposite, why behavior beats skill every single time in the hiring process, and what it actually means to be a Vistage Chair who puts members first. We also get into business acquisitions, due diligence, and what a six-year drought in Lake Tahoe taught him about making decisions with your gut instead of your head.
