There's going to be a lot of discussion about how work works in the future… but for now, we need to learn how to manage the position we're in the best that we can.

Rishon Blumberg is an entrepreneur and the co-founder of Brick Wall Management, an entertainment management company. As they hired freelancers to build websites and apps within the industry, they kept bumping up against the same problem: good, reliable talent is hard to find.

In the first part of this interview series, we're going to explore finding “10x” talent: what it means, how to hire it, and, most importantly, how to retain it.

It's what he studied, graduating from the Wharton School of Business with a degree in entrepreneurial management in 1994.
