Ralph Burns and Lauren Petrullo tackle the art of thinking big and hiring smart. From setting 10X goals that demand sharp decision-making to unexpected twists in virtual interviews (because you never know when someone’s hiding a cruise—or a pregnancy), they discuss building a dream team. Ralph and Lauren also talk about the importance of transparency, trust, and asking the right questions to avoid costly missteps. If you're looking to 10X your business—or just want to hire someone who’s not secretly a foot model—this episode is for you.
