Field Notes on Building Hard Things

Occasional writing on hiring, org design and the talent markets behind climate and hard technology.

What is in an issue

The Field Note
The main piece. Something we have learned from a live engagement, written properly rather than summarised.
Talent Signal
A specific movement in a specific market. Which roles have become harder, where people are moving from, what that implies for hiring plans.
The Builder
One person building something difficult, and what they have learned about assembling the team around them.
The Tool
A framework, template or scorecard you can use the same week. Usually pulled straight out of an engagement.

Have a critical hire ahead?

Let’s talk about the role, the market and what great could look like. The first conversation is diagnostic, not a pitch.
