The Calibration Call
The calibration call is the core method within The Learning Playbook. Find someone exceptional at the thing you need to learn, and ask: "Who's the best at this that you've ever worked with or seen?" Then get the introduction. Your goal is to learn what great looks like before you try to hire for it or do it yourself.

- The MOC
Most founders underinvest in defining a role before they hire for it — probably by a factor of four or five. The MOC framework^1^ fixes that. Define the mission, the outcomes you need in the first 12–18 months, and the competencies required to deliver them. Then use that document for everything that follows: interviewing, onboarding, evaluating, and, if necessary, firing.
