Most leaders will make 50+ hiring decisions in their career. Get half of them wrong—which studies show is average—and you'll spend years managing the consequences: the underperformer you can't quite fire, the team that quietly resents them, and the search you have to run all over again.The ability to assess talent with precision is the highest-leverage skill in business. And almost nobody has been trained to do it.That's why we founded <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://talgo.io">Talgo</a>—and over the past decade have trained thousands of executives, investors, and hiring leaders at Sequoia, THL, Palantir, and 150+ other top firms. Now we've distilled that methodology into this immersive three-session workshop. You will leave a fundamentally different judge of talent.You'll emerge with:<ul><li>A repeatable system for identifying top talent in any role</li><li>The ability to cut through polished candidates and get to the truth</li><li>Hiring accuracy that compounds across every role you fill for the rest of your career</li></ul>Plus 6 months of access to Talgo On Demand—annotated interview demos and coaching breakdowns used by top firms.This isn't HR fluff. It's how you stop making expensive hiring mistakes and start building the team you actually need to win.

Measure Right. Hire Once.

1. Define Success and Fit with Clarity and Precision

2. Interview and Reference Like a Pro (And Get Real Data)

3. Run a Tight, Efficient Process

4. Make Smarter, Bias-Resistant Hiring Calls

5. Differentially Attract—and Close—High Performers

Cohort 1

Cohort 2

You're a PM with a backlog of small tools that would save your team hours — a spec generator, a research summarizer, a feedback triager. None of them get built. Engineering is heads-down on the roadmap, your idea sits in the backlog for quarters, and you make do with a messy spreadsheet and copy-paste.This lab fixes that. In 2.5 hours you'll go from a real idea to a working tool, live at a public URL you own — built with Claude Code under the hood, no programming required. You'll pick a tool with a clear job, design it so non-technical teammates actually use it, and ship and deploy it before the session ends.You leave with the thing itself — and a repeatable pattern to build the next two or three on your own, without filing a ticket or waiting on a sprint.For product people tired of saying "I could build that" and never doing it.

You'll go from depending on eng for every small tool to shipping your own,  turning backlog ideas into live apps your team actually uses

Pick a micro-app worth building

Design it so your team can actually use it

Build and deploy to a live URL you own

Make it hold up in real use

Clone the pattern for your next tools

Know where Claude Code fits

Product managers with a backlog of small tool ideas: spec generators, summarizers, trackers; and no engineering cycles to spare.

Operators, chiefs of staff, and associate PMs who own a process but wait on eng for the small tools that would speed it up.

Founders and solo builders who keep saying "I could build that" and want to ship a real, owned tool without writing code.
