SHOW NOTES

Tune in to hear:

- What gap did Dr. Chase see in the market? How has investment talent been traditionally vetted and how does this compare to how it optimally should be?

- What specific personality assessments do they use and how do they settle on these?

- How do Drs. Chase and Pogge utilize Rorschachs to vet different personality styles?

- Taking results from a test like The Big 5 at face value might not tell you enough about someone’s personality. How can we further break these down into their constituent parts?

- When looking for asset managers - what are some personality attributes that might qualify as a red flag?

- How do you adjust for potential lies and deceit occurring in personality testing?

- How might the personalities of a closing pitcher and a hedge fund manager look similar or dissimilar?

- How do you strike a balance between finding a good fit for your team’s culture and not making “cookie cutter” hires?

- How might a more scientific vetting process open the door to more diversity and inclusion in the industry?
