According to Pew Research Center, nearly 75% of Black Americans identify as Christian.It's well known that many of the first African American Christians were first exposed to Christianity in the midst of enslavement. This exposure could have been used as a tactic for control by enslavers or as a genuine attempt to lead individuals to salvation by missionaries. But, whether conversion happened out of fear or joy, the African religious practices that the enslaved people would have practiced back home, all but disappeared during American enslavement.But, when emancipation occurred in the 1860's, the newfound freedoms of the formerly enslaved included not only an autonomy of body and identity, but an autonomy, at least in theory, of what they believed, and how they worshipped. For many, this materialized in a continued commitment to Christianity. But for many others, there was now the freedom to begin engaging with their traditional African beliefs, which often looked very different than Christianity. And even formerly enslaved Christians may have begun practicing a form of Christianity that, while still committed to the gospel, had visible distinctions and different emphases from the white men who first evangelized to them. But, while African Americans technically had the right to religious freedom, practitioners of African religion still faced persecution, especially during the era of Jim Crow, where legally free black Americans were still oppressed by their white governments for nearly a century. Even today stigma around Voodoo and similar practices has made African religion a taboo in many communities.Harvard Professor Ahmad Greene-Hayes recently wrote a book called “Underworld Work,” which explores the nuances of African American religious practice in the era between emancipation and the Civil Rights Movement. I spoke with Greene-Hayes about the complexities of Black religion during Jim Crow and the ways many Americans misunderstand African Spiritualism.

#1033 - Vom Würfeln zur Wissenschaft: Weniger als 10% Fehleinstellungen mit dem richtigen Recruiting-Prozess

VertriebsFunk – Karriere, Recruiting und Vertrieb

Geschätzte Lesedauer: 11 Minuten Hand aufs Herz: Wenn du in deiner letzten Stellenanzeige „mindestens zehn Jahre Branchenerfahrung" gefordert hast, dann hast du auf eines der schlechtesten Kriterien gesetzt, die die Forschung kennt. Klingt hart? Ist aber so. Wenn du im Vertrieb Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen willst, die wirklich performen, musst du dich von ein paar lieb gewonnenen Annahmen verabschieden. Denn die Kriterien, auf die wir im Recruiting am häufigsten filtern, sind nach vier Jahrzehnten Forschung genau die mit der schwächsten Treffsicherheit. In diesem Beitrag zeige ich dir, wie du einen Recruiting-Prozess auf Basis echter Daten aufbaust – kein Bauchgefühl, keine Bro-Science, sondern das, was die Wissenschaft wirklich misst. Du erfährst, welche Auswahl-Werkzeuge funktionieren, warum der laute Verkäufer ein Mythos ist und wie du deine Fehlerquote von rund 40 % auf unter 10 % drückst. Warum die meisten beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen die falschen Kriterien nutzen Das teure Missverständnis Ich werde immer öfter gefragt: „Chris, schau dir mal unseren Recruiting-Prozess an, wir stellen ständig die Falschen ein." Und fast immer sehe ich dasselbe Muster – es werden die falschen Methoden genutzt. Berufserfahrung, Studienabschluss, ein nettes Gespräch nach Sympathie. Das fühlt sich sicher an, hat aber mit der Vorhersage von Vertriebserfolg wenig zu tun. Warum sich der Irrtum so hartnäckig hält Diese Kriterien wirken plausibel. Niemand wird gefeuert, weil er einen Kandidaten mit zehn Jahren Branchenerfahrung eingestellt hat. Genau deshalb hält sich der Irrtum so hartnäckig. Wer aber wirklich gute Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen will, muss aufhören, auf das zu filtern, was sich gut anfühlt – und anfangen, auf das zu setzen, was nachweislich funktioniert. Gutes Vertriebsrecruiting ist keine exakte Wissenschaft, aber es gibt sehr viel belegtes Wissen, das die meisten schlicht übergehen. Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen: Was eine Korrelation wirklich aussagt Zwei Beispiele zum Einordnen Damit du die folgenden Zahlen einordnen kannst, ein kurzer Methoden-Check. Wir sprechen von Korrelationen. Eine Korrelation liegt zwischen 0 und 1: Null heißt kein Zusammenhang, eins heißt perfekte Vorhersage. In der Personalauswahl kommst du praktisch nie über 0,60 – und das nur, wenn du die richtigen Methoden klug kombinierst. Die Korrelation zwischen regelmäßiger Aspirin-Einnahme und einem geringeren Herzinfarktrisiko liegt bei rund 0,03 – und rettet trotzdem Millionen Leben. Rauchen und Lungenkrebs hängen mit etwa 0,40 zusammen. Das ist die größte einzelne Risikoursache, die wir kennen. Eine 0,40 klingt also mickrig, ist in Wahrheit aber ein sehr starker Effekt. Die Faustregel-Skala für die Treffsicherheit Praktisch heißt das: Bei einem Wert von 0,40 hast du in einem Team von 20 Leuten statt drei oder vier Fehlbesetzungen nur noch ein oder zwei. Über drei Jahre gerechnet sind das Hunderttausende Euro Unterschied. Als grobe Orientierung gilt: unter 0,10 ist statistisch wertlos, 0,10 bis 0,20 ist schwach, 0,20 bis 0,35 ist praktisch relevant, 0,35 bis 0,50 ist sehr gut für ein einzelnes Werkzeug – und alles über 0,50 erreichst du nur durch Kombination. Vertriebsrecruiting: Welche Auswahl-Werkzeuge funktionieren Seit über 40 Jahren untersucht die Forschung, wie gut einzelne Auswahl-Werkzeuge Berufserfolg vorhersagen. Wenn du dir die Werte ansiehst, ergibt sich eine klare Rangfolge – und sie widerspricht ziemlich genau dem, was im Mittelstand üblich ist. Wer datenbasiert Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen will, sollte diese Reihenfolge kennen. Strukturierte Interviews schlagen das Bauchgefühl Strukturierte Interviews – also Gespräche, bei denen du vorher genau festlegst, welche Fragen du stellst und welche Antworten gut oder schlecht sind – kommen auf einen Wert von 0,42. Unstrukturierte Interviews, das, was du typischerweise siehst, liegen nur bei 0,19. Allein die Struktur verdoppelt also die Treffsicherheit deines Interviews. Das muss man sich auf der Zunge zergehen lassen – und kaum jemand macht es. Arbeitsproben liegen bei 0,33, kognitive Leistung bei rund 0,31, Wissens-Tests bei 0,40. Berufsjahre und Abschlüsse sind fast wertlos Und jetzt der unbequeme Teil: Berufsjahre haben einen Wert von 0,09, Ausbildungsjahre von 0,10 – also quasi nutzlos für die Vorhersage von Vertriebserfolg. Handschrift-Gutachten kommen auf 0,02, das ist reines Voodoo. Wenn deine Ausschreibung Berufsjahre fordert und dein Interview unstrukturiert verläuft, setzt du auf zwei Kriterien zwischen 0,09 und 0,19. Das ist statistisch fast Würfeln. Werkzeuge kombinieren: Von 40 % auf unter 10 % Fehleinstellungen Jetzt kommt der spannendste Hebel. Wenn du die richtigen Werkzeuge kombinierst, kannst du die Treffsicherheit nochmal verdoppeln. Wichtig: Du zählst die Werte nicht einfach zusammen. Ein strukturiertes Interview (0,42) plus eine Arbeitsprobe (0,33) ergibt nicht 0,75. Denn jedes Werkzeug erfasst einen anderen Teil der Leistung. Warum sich gute Kombinationen ergänzen Zwei Verfahren, die Verschiedenes messen, ergänzen sich – zwei, die das Gleiche messen, bringen nichts. Ein kognitiver Test plus ein strukturiertes Interview treibt die Treffsicherheit auf etwa 0,63. Für den Vertrieb ist die stärkste Kombination: strukturiertes Interview plus Arbeitsprobe plus geprüfte Past Performance. Damit landest du bei 0,60 bis 0,65. Nimmst du für die Finalisten noch einen Persönlichkeitstest dazu, kommst du fast auf 0,68. Über 0,70 schaffst du selbst mit sechs Werkzeugen kaum – das ist die theoretische Decke. Was das für deine Fehlerquote bedeutet Übersetzt in die Praxis heißt das: Im klassischen Verfahren liegt deine „Luftpumpen-Quote", also das Risiko einer Fehleinstellung, bei rund 42 %. Fast jeder Zweite daneben. Mit der Maximalkombination sinkt sie auf 8 bis 10 %. Du kommst also von einer Fehlerquote von 40 % auf unter 10 %. Darüber muss man eigentlich nicht mehr reden. Kein Prozess liefert 100 % Sicherheit – aber wer die richtigen Werkzeuge kombiniert, ärgert sich nicht über die übrigen 10 %, sondern vermeidet die teuren 30 % dazwischen. Die Überraschung: Der laute Verkäufer ist ein Mythos Ambivertierte gewinnen Speziell für den Vertrieb gibt es einen Befund, der viele überrascht. Es hält sich die Annahme: je extrovertierter, desto besser der Verkäufer. Falsch. Studien zeigen, dass die besonders Extrovertierten nicht besonders gut verkaufen – aber die ganz Introvertierten eben auch nicht. Am erfolgreichsten sind die in der Mitte: die Ambivertierten, die je nach Situation zwischen offensiv und ruhig wählen können. Was wirklich zählt: Achievement Drive Der klassische Dampfplauderer ist also nicht dein Top-Performer. Im Interview gewinnt er trotzdem oft, weil er redegewandt ist – und genau hier liegen viele falsch. Der stärkste Faktor ist nicht Lautstärke, sondern Achievement Drive: das Leistungsstreben, der Wille zu gewinnen. Und das ist oft leise. Past Sales Performance allein hat übrigens einen Wert von rund 0,50 – der stärkste einzelne Faktor überhaupt. Wer das ernst nimmt, wird beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen nie wieder auf den lautesten Bewerber hereinfallen. Die Asymmetrie der Trainierbarkeit: selektiere DNA, trainiere Skill Was schnell lernbar ist – und was nicht Hier kommt der vielleicht wichtigste Denkfehler, den du vermeiden musst. Ja, im Prinzip kann man alles lernen. Aber der Trainingsertrag ist sehr verschieden. Skills und Wissen – eine SPIN-Selling-Methode, MEDDIC, ein CRM, dein Produktwissen – hat ein cleverer Verkäufer in Wochen bis Monaten drauf. Das ist mir bei der Auswahl deshalb ziemlich egal. Die rationale Strategie beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen Persönlichkeit dagegen verschiebt sich nur über Jahre. Achievement Drive, Frustrationstoleranz, intellektuelle Neugier – das bringst du jemandem im Onboarding nicht bei. Daraus folgt die einzig rationale Strategie, wenn du Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen willst: Selektiere auf das Stabile, trainiere das Veränderbare. Wer das Leistungsstreben nicht mitbringt, lernt es bei dir nicht mehr. Wer das Branchenvokabular nicht kennt, lernt es in drei Monaten. Die zwei häufigsten Fehler beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen Fehler 1: Der Fachexperte ohne Vertriebs-Ader Beide klassischen Fehler haben dieselbe Wurzel: Risiko meiden statt sauber prüfen. Der erste Fehler ist der Fachexperte ohne Vertriebs-Ader – der Servicetechniker oder Anwendungsingenieur, der zum Verkäufer gemacht wird. Fachlich top zu sein erhöht die Chance, vertrieblich zu performen, schlicht nicht. Nach 20 Jahren in der fachlichen Beratung ist der Komfort in dieser Rolle kein Trainingsthema mehr. Fehler 2: Der Abschluss-Crack ohne Produkt-Interesse Der zweite Fehler ist das Spiegelbild: der abschlussstarke Sales-Crack ohne echtes Interesse am Produkt. Im Gespräch fragt er nur nach Provision, Gebiet und Tools – nie nach der Lösung. Im komplexen, beratungsintensiven Vertrieb wird der nie glaubwürdig als Experte auftreten. Der Branchenkenner fühlt sich sicher, weil seine Etikette stimmt. Der laute Verkäufer fühlt sich sicher, weil er Gespräche gewinnt. Beide sagen wenig über echte Leistung aus. Der Adjacent Industry Hire: die Lösung für den Bewerbermangel Adjazenz schlägt Branchenetikett Was tust du stattdessen? Du holst dir jemanden, der die Grundeigenschaften eines guten Verkäufers schon mitbringt – aus einer verwandten Branche. Das nennt sich Adjacent Industry Hire und ist sogar wissenschaftlich untersucht. Beispiele: ein SaaS-Vertriebler ins ERP-Geschäft, ein Industrieautomatisierer in die Robotik, jemand aus der Spezialchemie in den Bereich Coatings. Worauf es wirklich ankommt Entscheidend ist nicht die Branche selbst, sondern die Nähe von vier Dingen: Buyer-Persona, Sales-Cycle-Länge, Komplexität des Verkaufs und Entscheidungsstruktur. Wer mit ähnlichen Ansprechpartnern, in einem ähnlichen Zyklus und einer vergleichbaren Komplexität gearbeitet hat, bringt 100 % des Skills mit und braucht nur drei Monate für die Domain Fluency. „Zehn Jahre Branchenerfahrung" ist eben kein Eignungskriterium – es ist die Risiko-Versicherung des Recruiters, auf Kosten der Vertriebsleistung. Wann Fachwissen doch vor Sales-DNA geht Der Lackmustest für deine Rolle Damit ich ehrlich bleibe: Es gibt Fälle, in denen das Fachwissen wirklich vorgeht. Das gilt in hochregulierten, hochtechnischen Feldern – Pharma, Medical Devices, Halbleiter, Spezialchemie, Aerospace oder hochregulierte Cybersecurity. Der Lackmustest ist einfach: Hältst du das Erstgespräch ohne tiefes Fachwissen fünf Minuten durch, oder bist du sofort raus? Drei Lösungen für hochtechnische Rollen Nimm die OP-Technik: Wer nicht mitreden kann, wenn der Chirurg zur Sache kommt, bekommt keinen zweiten Termin. In solchen Fällen hast du drei Optionen: den seltenen Hybrid (teuer und schwer zu finden), den klassischen technischen Verkäufer mit Sales-Basis oder ein Tandem aus Verkäufer und Sales Engineer. Die Frage ist nie pauschal Fach oder Skill, sondern: Wie hoch ist die fachliche Hürde ins Erstgespräch dieser konkreten Rolle? So bildest du das richtige Anforderungsprofil Bevor du den ersten Lebenslauf liest, musst du wissen, wonach du suchst. Und zwar nicht aus dem Profil des – vielleicht mittelmäßigen – Vorgängers und nicht aus einer kopierten Stellenanzeige. Die saubere Methode heißt Anforderungsanalyse: Du leitest die Kriterien aus der Leistung deiner echten Top-Performer ab. In fünf Schritten zum richtigen Anforderungsprofil In fünf Schritten zu einem Anforderungsprofil, das wirklich auf Vertriebserfolg setzt – statt den nächsten Klon des Vorgängers zu suchen. Top-Performer analysieren Geh nicht von der Rolle aus, sondern von den Menschen, die heute oben performen. Was haben sie in Werdegang, Arbeitsstil und Persönlichkeit gemeinsam? Interviewe sie zu ihren besten Deals. Die Rolle entlang vier Achsen abklopfen Sales-Cycle-Länge, Komplexität (Einzelentscheider vs. Buying Center), Akquise- vs. Bestandsanteil und Beratungstiefe. Daraus ergibt sich deine Buyer-Persona. Strategisch vorausschauen Wo geht die Rolle in zwei bis drei Jahren hin? Welche Skills werden vom Nice-to-Have zur Pflicht? Definiere nicht die Rolle von gestern. Must-Have von Nice-to-Have trennen Maximal drei bis fünf Must-Haves – und zwar alles, was kaum trainierbar ist: Achievement Drive, Frustrationstoleranz, Neugier, Past Performance. Produktwissen und CRM sind Nice-to-Have. In messbare CV-Signale übersetzen Aus „Achievement Drive" wird „belegte Quoten-Übererfüllung in zwei der letzten drei Jahre". Lege pro Signal einen klaren Schwellenwert fest. Anforderungsprofil ist nicht gleich Stellenbeschreibung Mehr als fünf Anforderungen brauchst du nicht – Studien zeigen, dass Bewerber ohnehin nur rund fünf Kriterien wirklich wahrnehmen. Das Anforderungsprofil ist nicht die Stellenbeschreibung. Die Stellenbeschreibung ist Werbung. Das Anforderungsprofil sagt, was jemand können muss, um in der Rolle erfolgreich zu sein. Zwei verschiedene Dokumente. Was im Lebenslauf wirklich zählt Wenn du Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen willst, ist der Lebenslauf kein Vorhersage-Werkzeug. Er ist ein Filter, der die Falschen aussortiert. Lies ihn rückwärts – fang bei der letzten Leistungs-Zahl an. Im CV zählen Zahlen, nicht Adjektive. Harte Signale: worauf du achtest Harte Signale sind: konkrete Quoten-Erreichung in Prozent („120 % der Quote in 2023"), ein Ranking im Team („Top 3 von 40"), bezifferte Deal-Größen und Cycle-Komplexität sowie Beförderungen innerhalb des Unternehmens. Red Flags: was dich stoppen sollte Red Flags sind: „verantwortlich für" statt „erreicht", Worthülsen wie „strategischer Vertriebsansatz" ohne Zahlen und Job-Hopping unter 18 Monaten pro Station ohne erkennbaren Grund. Die unbequeme Wahrheit: In den meisten deutschen Lebensläufen stehen die entscheidenden Zahlen gar nicht. Deshalb filterst du beim CV nur grob vor – und holst die fehlenden Fakten im Telefon-Pre-Screening. Verkäufer ohne Zahlen im CV haben entweder keine, schlechte – oder sie wissen nicht, dass Zahlen das Einzige sind, was im Vertriebs-CV zählt. Vertriebsrecruiting-Prozess: vom CV bis zum Onboarding Kriterien allein nützen nichts ohne Prozess. Wer 80 Lebensläufe planlos liest, sortiert am Ende den Falschen mit dem schönsten Foto rein. Du brauchst einen Trichter: erst Hard-Filter gegen die harten Signale (maximal 90 Sekunden pro CV), dann eine strukturierte Bewertung mit mindestens drei Signalen für die Einladung. Das Telefon-Pre-Screening: der unterschätzte ROI-Hebel Das Telefon-Pre-Screening ist der am stärksten unterschätzte Schritt im ganzen Prozess. In 15 bis 20 Minuten holst du die Zahlen, die im Lebenslauf fehlen: Quoten-Historie prüfen, Wechselgrund, Gehaltsrahmen, eine Frage zum echten Verhalten. Zwanzig Minuten am Telefon ersparen dir zwei Stunden falsch geführte Vor-Ort-Interviews. Und vergiss das Active Sourcing nicht – die richtig guten Verkäufer bewerben sich selten, sie werden gefunden. Ein gesundes Verhältnis sind 50 % Bewerbungseingang und 50 % Active Sourcing. Drei diagnostische Interviewfragen Im eigentlichen Interview haben sich drei Fragen bewährt. Erstens: „Wie würdest du dich in 30 Tagen in unsere Produktwelt einarbeiten?" – das misst Selbststeuerung und Lernstrategie. Zweitens: „Erzähl mir vom letzten Deal, den du selbst akquiriert hast – nicht ausgebaut, nicht betreut." – das trennt den echten Hunter vom Beziehungspfleger. Drittens: „Wie würdest du unser Produkt nach einer Stunde Vorbereitung verkaufen?" – das misst, wie schnell jemand von Produktmerkmal zu Kundennutzen übersetzt, die zentrale Vertriebsfähigkeit. Wichtig: Diese Fragen sind nur valide mit einer vorab festgelegten Bewertungsrubrik. Und geh nie allein ins Interview – idealerweise stellt HR die Fragen, die Führungskraft beobachtet. Die Rolle von HR: vom Briefträger zum methodischen Treiber Was HR wirklich leisten muss Hier sterben die meisten guten Prozesse. HR leitet CVs weiter, dann Funkstille – und der Vertriebsleiter entscheidet wieder aus dem Bauch. Eine starke Personalabteilung ist nicht der Verwalter im Hintergrund, sondern der methodische Treiber des Prozesses. Von HR kommen die Interview-Leitfäden, die Bewertungs-Skalen, die Arbeitsproben und die Test-Werkzeuge – das ganze Handwerk. Geschwindigkeit ist Qualität HR sorgt dafür, dass der Prozess eingehalten wird, dass die Kriterien gemeinsam festgelegt werden und dass die Führungskraft sauber durch den Prozess geführt wird. Dazu gehört auch Geschwindigkeit: Die besten Kandidaten sind laut LinkedIn nur rund zehn Tage aktiv verfügbar, nach 30 Tagen haben sich über 50 % anders entschieden. Geschwindigkeit ist im Recruiting nicht das Gegenteil von Sorgfalt – sie ist deren Ergebnis. Recruiting endet nicht mit dem Vertrag: Onboarding als zweiter Filter Die diagnostische Verlängerung Auch wer sauber Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen will, produziert mit dem besten Prozess noch rund 10 % Fehleinstellungen – das lässt sich rechnerisch nicht vermeiden. Genau diese 10 % fängst du im Onboarding ab. Denn 70 bis 80 % der späteren Fehlbesetzungen zeigen ihre Muster schon in den ersten drei Monaten. Klare Entscheidungspunkte nach 30, 60, 90 Tagen Verstehe das Onboarding deshalb nicht in erster Linie als Wissens-Vermittlung, sondern als Verlängerung des Recruitings mit anderen Mitteln: feste Check-ins, klare Frühwarn-Zeichen, klare Entscheidungspunkte nach 30, 60 und 90 Tagen. Wer nach 60 Tagen vor sich hin meckert und nicht vorankommt, wird nach 120 Tagen meistens nicht besser – sondern schlechter. Nutze die Probezeit konsequent als das, was sie ist: deine zweite Chance. Quick Takeaways Branchenjahre und Abschlüsse sind fast wertlos (Wert 0,09–0,10) – sie sind die teuersten falschen Kriterien. Strukturierte Interviews verdoppeln die Treffsicherheit gegenüber unstrukturierten Gesprächen (0,42 vs. 0,19). Die Kombination der richtigen Werkzeuge senkt die Fehlerquote von ~40 % auf unter 10 %. Achievement Drive schlägt Extraversion – der laute Dampfplauderer ist ein Mythos, die Ambivertierten gewinnen. Selektiere auf das Stabile, trainiere das Veränderbare: Persönlichkeit bleibt über Jahre, Skills holst du in Monaten auf. Der Adjacent Industry Hire löst den Bewerbermangel – Nähe von Buyer-Persona, Cycle, Komplexität und Entscheidungsstruktur zählt, nicht das Branchenetikett. Telefon-Pre-Screening und HR als Treiber sind die unterschätztesten Hebel im ganzen Prozess. Fazit: Schluss mit dem Würfeln beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen Die drei Kernsätze Fassen wir zusammen. Strukturierte Interviews, Arbeitsproben und kognitive Tests sagen Vertriebserfolg drei- bis fünfmal besser voraus als Berufsjahre und unstrukturierte Bewertungen. Achievement Striving und Gewissenhaftigkeit sind die stabilsten Persönlichkeitsmerkmale – allgemeine Extraversion ist es nicht. Und weil Persönlichkeit über Jahre stabil bleibt, Skills aber in Monaten aufholbar sind, setzt du auf das Erste und trainierst das Zweite. Dein nächster Schritt Wer im Vertriebsrecruiting weiter auf Branchenjahre filtert, setzt auf das schlechteste verfügbare Kriterium. Wer auf Sales-Disposition baut und Wissen aufbaut, formt ein Team, das mit dem Markt mitwächst. Das ist eigentlich gar nicht schwer – du musst es nur konsequent machen. Wenn du Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen willst, ohne dich auf dein Bauchgefühl zu verlassen, fang heute mit einem Punkt an: Führe das strukturierte Telefon-Pre-Screening ein. Damit halbierst du deine Time-to-Hire und verdoppelst die Qualität deiner Pipeline. Du willst tiefer einsteigen? Schreib mir einfach eine E-Mail an recruiting@vertriebsfunk.de – dann bekommst du von mir die komplette Zusammenfassung dieser Folge und den Bewertungsbogen, den ich in meinen Vertriebsprojekten als Blaupause nutze. Beides schicke ich dir kostenlos zu. Gib alles, dein Christopher Funk. Welche Kriterien sollte ich beim Vertriebsmitarbeiter einstellen wirklich beachten? Setze auf das, was kaum trainierbar ist: Achievement Drive, Frustrationstoleranz, Neugier und geprüfte Past Sales Performance. Branchenjahre und Studienabschluss haben dagegen eine sehr geringe Vorhersagekraft auf Vertriebserfolg. Wie senke ich meine Fehlerquote im Vertriebsrecruiting? Indem du mehrere valide Werkzeuge kombinierst: strukturiertes Interview plus Arbeitsprobe plus geprüfte Past Performance. Das hebt die Treffsicherheit auf 0,60 bis 0,65 und drückt die Quote der Fehleinstellungen von rund 40 % auf unter 10 %. Ist Branchenerfahrung beim Verkäufer einstellen wichtig? Meistens nicht. Branchenerfahrung ist oft nur die Risiko-Versicherung des Recruiters. Wichtiger ist die Nähe von Buyer-Persona, Sales-Cycle, Komplexität und Entscheidungsstruktur. Ausnahmen sind hochregulierte Märkte wie Pharma, Medical Devices oder Aerospace. Worauf achte ich im Lebenslauf eines Vertrieblers? Auf Zahlen statt Adjektive: konkrete Quoten-Erreichung in Prozent, Ranking im Team, bezifferte Deal-Größen und Beförderungen. Red Flags sind „verantwortlich für" statt „erreicht", Worthülsen ohne Zahlen und Job-Hopping unter 18 Monaten. Welche Rolle spielt HR beim Aufbau eines guten Recruiting-Prozesses? HR ist der methodische Treiber, nicht der Briefträger. Die Personalabteilung baut den Prozess, liefert Interview-Leitfäden und Bewertungs-Skalen, sorgt für Geschwindigkeit und führt die Führungskraft sauber durch das Verfahren. Wie sieht es bei dir aus: Filterst du noch nach Branchenjahren – oder setzt du schon auf Sales-DNA? Schreib mir deine Erfahrungen in die Kommentare und teile den Beitrag mit dem Vertriebsleiter, der das gerade dringend lesen sollte.

In 1956, Italy's most opulent ocean liner went down off Nantucket after a head-on collision in the fog, taking 46 lives and earning a place among the worst maritime disasters in history. But the dying didn't stop there — in the seven decades since, the wreck dubbed the "Mt. Everest of Wreck Diving" has claimed roughly 18 more souls, swallowing the divers drawn to its depths and feeding whispers that something down there is cursed.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources and full transcript): https://weirddarkness.com/andreadoriaFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Movies like Shaun of the Dead, Night of the Living Dead, World War Z, and TV shows like The Walking Dead, have made the subject of zombies a fairly popular topic over recent years. And while we all know these undead creatures are purely make-believe, the idea of the zombie has been around for thousands of years… and in the Voodoo culture, they've found a way to make zombies a real, horrifying thing. (The Disturbing Truth Behind Voodoo Zombies) *** In July of 1956, the SS Andrea Doria collided with another ship and quickly sank to the bottom of the ocean. Today it is a tourist destination for brave divers who not only want to see something hauntingly beautiful, but who also dare to investigate a wreck that has been deemed by many to be cursed – and for good reason. (The Cursed Remains of the SS Andrea Doria) *** Paranormal author and researcher G. Michael Vasey tells of a personal incident that took place recently where he saw what could be described as a “peripheral person”. (Peripheral People) *** Sir Clive Sinclair might have been a man ahead of his time. The late inventor created all manner of strange and wonderful gadgets – most of which you've likely never heard of. But that doesn't mean you can say they were failures. (The Inventor of Weird Contraptions) *** If the legends are to believed, you'll want to avoid driving down Nan Tucks Lane in East Sussex - unless you don't mind coming into contact with a vengeful ghost. (The Witch of Nan Tucks Lane) *** Where in the bible do we see the story of fallen angels sleeping with women to produce a breed of giants? Most would point to the book of Genesis – but in the unincluded book of Enoch, it tells a more-detailed account, worthy of a horror movie. (The Story of Giants and Fallen Angels) *** Some people collect baseball cards, others coins, and others Pokemon. There's no telling what someone might find enough of an interest in to begin collecting. And collecting books is one of the most common – but when your collecting becomes a compulsion and you can't stop yourself, it can get out of hand.

Voodoo wasn't supposed to be making this kind of money. For years their entire portfolio sat at sub-$100K/day games — Mob Control, Cap Heroes, the usual hyper-casual treadmill. Then something switched in early 2026 and now they're suddenly running at $1M/day in IAP across the portfolio. The flag-bearer for the new era is Marble Sort.We dig into Marble Sort by Voodoo — a sort-category puzzler that scaled from launch in February to $200K/day in IAP plus $52K/day in ad revenue by March. The conversation covers the sorter-category explosion (Pixel Flow's Scopely acquisition for close to $1B set the precedent), the 800-1,100 creatives running on AppLovin and what they tell us about Voodoo's creative production discipline, the level-design and APS-curve methodology that Tripledot-style studios actually use, why this game could be just a mini-game inside Royal Match (and why that matters), and the bigger story underneath: Voodoo just launched a mid-core PvP studio led by ex-Kameli Games French founders, signaling a serious IPO push in the next 1-2 years.If you want to understand the Voodoo renaissance — or just figure out why Jakub keeps insisting "the sort category is the new hot shit" — this is the episode.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00 Cold open — Voodoo is suddenly doing $1M/day in IAP02:24 The sorter category is the new hot shit (and why)05:36 The Voodoo portfolio renaissance — Castle Clashers + Marble Sort08:56 Walking the game — sorting mechanics, level curve, no live-ops yet13:40 The level design metrics — APS curve, booster win ratio17:38 32% ad revenue + $52K/day = roughly $250K/day total19:59 800-1,100 creatives in 30 days — AI + gameplay + AppLovin altered videos28:33 Voodoo's new mid-core PvP studio + the IPO setup--------------------------------------PVX Partners offers non-dilutive funding for game developers.Go to: https://pvxpartners.com/They can help you access the most effective form of growth capital once you have the metrics to back it.- Scale fast- Keep your shares- Drawdown only as needed- Have PvX take downside risk alongside you+ Work with a team entirely made up of ex-gaming operators and investors---------------------------------------For an ever-growing number of game developers, this means that now is the perfect time to invest in monetizing direct-to-consumer at scale.Our sponsor FastSpring:Has delivered D2C at scale for over 20 yearsThey power top mobile publishers around the worldLaunch a new webstore, replace an existing D2C vendor, or add a redundant D2C vendor at fastspring.gg.---------------------------------------This is no BS gaming podcast 2.5 gamers session.

[EP144 · BONUS] Papa Doc y el secuestro del vudú: Cuando un dictador fingió ser la muerte

Mitos y más

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 1, 2026 8:07


Un dictador se disfrazó del dios de la muerte para gobernar un país entero, y funcionó durante casi treinta años. Su nombre era François "Papa Doc" Duvalier: médico, etnólogo y conocedor del vudú haitiano mejor que nadie. No actuaba por superstición. Actuaba por precisión psicológica.En este episodio de Mitos y Más viajamos al corazón del Fèt Gede, el festival de los espíritus de la muerte en Haití, para entender qué fue exactamente lo que Duvalier intentó secuestrar. Cada 1 de noviembre, miles de haitianos vestidos de negro y morado inundan el Gran Cementerio Nacional de Puerto Príncipe. Los tambores suenan a un ritmo frenético, los espíritus de la familia Gede —liderados por Barón Samedi y Maman Brigitte— poseen a los devotos, y lo que parece caótico e irreverente es en realidad una de las teologías más sofisticadas y resilientes del mundo: la afirmación de que la fuerza vital de la humanidad es más fuerte que la muerte biológica.Duvalier lo entendió perfectamente. Y decidió robarlo.Comenzó a vestir siempre de negro con frac y sombrero de copa. Forzó su voz naturalmente suave para que sonara nasal, exactamente igual que la voz de los espíritus Gede cuando poseen a un creyente. Creó una milicia paramilitar —los infames Tonton Macoutes, nombrados en honor al "hombre del saco" del folclore haitiano— a la que dio machetes, gafas de sol oscuras y licencia absoluta para matar, torturar y extorsionar con total impunidad. El mensaje era devastador: Duvalier no era solo un presidente corrupto. Era Barón Samedi. Y sus Tonton Macoutes eran los emisarios de la muerte.Durante casi treinta años, bajo el mandato de Papa Doc y luego de su hijo Baby Doc, la dictadura asesinó a más de 30.000 haitianos y obligó a cientos de miles a huir al exilio. Y lo hicieron secuestrando la religión de su propio pueblo.Pero la historia del vudú, como vimos en la Revolución Haitiana, es siempre una historia de supervivencia. En 1986, una rebelión popular derrocó a Baby Doc. Y en los años siguientes, el pueblo haitiano comenzó el lento y doloroso proceso de recuperar a sus dioses. Los haitianos sabían que Barón Samedi no era François Duvalier. Duvalier era un impostor que había robado la ropa del dios para asustar a los niños. El verdadero Barón nunca torturaría a los pobres para proteger a un político corrupto.Hoy, después del devastador terremoto de 2010, la epidemia de cólera y la actual crisis de violencia de pandillas, el Fèt Gede se ha convertido en un acto de desafío existencial. Cuando los haitianos se visten de negro y morado, beben ron con chiles y bailan sobre las tumbas de sus seres queridos, están diciendo algo muy claro: "Hemos sobrevivido a la esclavitud. Hemos sobrevivido a las deudas extorsivas de Francia. Hemos sobrevivido a los Tonton Macoutes. Y hemos sobrevivido a los terremotos. La muerte nos rodea todos los días. Pero nosotros seguimos aquí. Y seguimos bailando."François Duvalier murió en 1971. Su régimen cayó en 1986. Barón Samedi sigue gobernando el cementerio.En este episodio:Qué ocurre realmente en el Gran Cementerio de Puerto Príncipe el 1 de noviembre y por qué las danzas de los Gede son teología, no irreverencia.Cómo François Duvalier, médico y etnólogo, diseñó su imagen pública para encarnar a Barón Samedi ante su propio pueblo.La historia real de los Tonton Macoutes: quiénes eran, cómo los reclutaba y por qué su nombre viene de un cuento de miedo haitiano.Cómo la dictadura Duvalier envenenó la imagen del vudú a nivel internacional y qué hizo el pueblo haitiano para recuperar a sus dioses.Por qué el Fèt Gede de hoy es mucho más que una fiesta religiosa: es un manifiesto de resistencia cultural contra siglos de colonialismo, dictadura y desastre.Fuentes principales de este episodio:Alfred Métraux — Voodoo in Haiti Maya Deren — Divine Horsemen Leslie Desmangles — The Faces of the Gods Al Burt & Bernard Diederich — Papa Doc: Haiti and Its Dictator Elizabeth Abbott — Haiti: The Duvaliers and Their Legacy Laënnec Hurbon — El Bárbaro ImaginarioTodas las fuentes y bibliografía completa disponibles en mitosymas.com

Returning guest Don Campbell joins us as we meet Charles Lee Ray in episode 156, tackling Tom Holland's 1988 classic Child's Play as the second entry in the "It's Voodoo Baby" triple feature. We break down all eight of Chucky's major reveals, from the voodoo soul transfer that opens the film to the battery scene confrontation between Karen Barclay and the Good Guy doll, to the fiery finale in the apartment. Along the way we explore Don Mancini's original "Blood Buddy" script, the Cabbage Patch doll craze that inspired the film, the raised soundstage set and practical puppet work that brought Chucky to life, and why Catherine Hicks' performance makes Child's Play as much a story about a struggling single mother as it is a slasher. The episode closes with our favorite reveals ranking, real monsters, and a round of "would you survive Chucky?"  Next up: Wes Craven's The Serpent and the Rainbow closes out the triple feature.

Much to Tattoo's dismay, Mr. Roarke accepts $51 from two children who desperately want to see their parents back together. Under the guise of inspecting the children's survival weekend, the mother and father -- and their respective fiances -- end up stuck in a rustic cabin. Meanwhile, Roarke aids an amnesiac to discover whether or not she is the heiress to a rubber plantation. He also employs the help of the voodoo adherents who lived on the estate. But is there more to this fantasy than meets the eye? Justin makes his first visit to Fantasy Island and immediately learns to love Ricardo Montalban's Mr. Roarke. Erik reveals the "Parent Trap" segment's other name. The pair discuss the reasons why this is one of the lowest rated episodes of the series on IMDb. The presence of Hervé Villechaize as Tattoo leads to a discussion of lesser Bond movies. The true nature of Roarke is also debated. The "Voodoo" segment, meanwhile, gets raked across the coals for obvious old-timey racism. But a surprise special guest proves good in their role. Erik admits to enjoying both film versions of The Parent Trap and a bear in one of the segments calls the spirit of a certain filmmaker to pronounce his judgement on the proceedings.

It's New Orleans: Out to Lunch

I want to start out today by running through a few notable New Orleans landmarks:The new terminal at Louis Armstrong Airport. The U.S Custom House.The gold/copper skin on the Superdome.The Civic Theater.The W New Orleans French Quarter Hotel.The Xavier University Dormitories. There are a whole lot more on this list too. If you’re wondering what the link is between all of them, it’s the construction company that built them, or in some cases re-built them. It’s a 50 year old family firm, called Gibbs Construction. Gibbs Construction was founded in 1976, by Larry Gibbs. 43 years later, In 2019, Larry’s daughter, Lauren, took over as owner and CEO of the company. Now, here’s a list of other New Orleans buildings. See if you can tell me what these have in common:The LaLaurie Mansion on Royal Street.The Hermann-Grima House.Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop.The Andrew Jackson Hotel.The Old Ursuline Convent. If you’re a New Orleanian, you’re probably saying, with as much nonchalance and more confidence than you have in today’s weather forecast, “Oh yeah, they’re all haunted.” Along with the French Quarter, fabulous food, and live music, the supernatural vibe that is a natural part of New Orleans is an element of the city people come here to experience. Most tourists – and locals by the way – learn about our haunted history courtesy of the oldest and largest ghost tour business in New Orleans - a company called, Haunted History Tours. Haunted History was co-founded in 1994 by partners Sidney and Kalila Smith. Today, Kalila is the sole owner of the company. Kalila is a leading authority on the subject of supernatural New Orleans. She’s the author of multiple books, including New Orleans Ghosts, Voodoo & Vampires, and Tales From The French Quarter. Her many TV appearances include CNN, Fox News, The Today Show, The Travel Channel and Discovery. She was a contributor to Sony's PlayStation II game Ghosthunter, and produced a PBS documentary on Southern hauntings. Visible & Invisible A lot of businesses have a lot in common. But some don’t. About the only way anybody could run a complex, multi-million dollar construction company is by having years of experience in the industry, which in Lauren's case she got to some degree by growing up in it. On the other hand, what’s made Kalila's business successful is the very opposite of continuity – it’s the ability to do something nobody had done before she came along and created it. Lauren and Kalila are wonderful examples of the multi-dimensional tapestry of our unique New Orleans economy, and vastly different but equally important contributors to it. Out to Lunch was recorded live over lunch at Columns in Uptown New Orleans.

Crypticon Seattle 2026: Tiki Terror and Tropical Horror Panel

Feel the sweat and the tropical breezes; it’s time to discuss Tiki Terrors and its tropical horror cousins. Transport yourself to an island in the South Pacific or the Caribbean. The exoticism and the removal from “civilization” provide the grounds for some evocative scares. These movies have been with us since the Golden Age. Think King Kong and The Island of Lost Souls. Embrace the mystery and heat, and learn from some veteran Crypticon panelists as they talk all things Tiki Terror. Friend of the Scariest Things, Brian Callahan, hosted a panel at Crypticon Seattle to guide us through a fateful trip to discover what lurks at the edge of the known world. Beware of cultural misappropriation and cultural stereotypes. Cultural sensitivity falls by the wayside here. The edge of the known universe gets short shrift when it comes to cultural respect. Context matters. Tiki and tropical-themed horror movies had their heyday in the ’50s and ’60s when Polynesia still felt very remote, and honestly, it was a different time. At the same time, the film industries of places like the Philippines can export some of their culture through B-movies. For the purposes of this discussion, the criteria for what movies got discussed were reasonably broad. It extended from Polynesia to some of the Voodoo themes on the Atlantic side. If it takes place on a remote island, it would be fair game for discussion. I came away from this session with a roster of films to check out, and that is the beauty of these panel talks. Brian was amazing on the trigger; there was a whole roster of films that were at his fingertips, and he was able to feather in movies, even ones that came from the audience. It was a very niche topic, but attendees came for the deep-cut discussion and were rewarded. This panel was the last panel from the Friday session, and a number of us prepared by wearing Aloha shirts for the event. These are veteran panelists, and it shows. I could listen to Tony Kay talk horror all day! He is one of the best panelists at Crypticon’s disposal. If you don’t come out of this recording with some new movies to check out, you probably are already an expert! Tony Kay, Brian Callahan, and Brien Gorham decked out in Aloha shirts and talking Tiki Horror at Crypticon Seattle 2026 Tiki Terror and Tropical Horrors: Crypticon Seattle Panel Recording Brian Callahan – HostTony Kay- PanelistBrien Gorham – Panelist Here is the panel recording from Crypticon Seattle.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com Have you ever been sidelined by an injury and wondered if there was a way to bypass the "Netflix and chill" recovery method to heal 30% faster?   I put together a compilation to show how to bulletproof your body. I talk with Michael Roviello about baths and fat. He explains how therapy helps mitochondria. Gary Brecka discusses how oxygen prevents disease and warns against the pathway of injuries. I explain how restriction training triggers hormones. I demonstrate using bands for compression to flush waste and I also detail using a ball to release spasms. These methods help you recover from surgery or pain without relying on ibuprofen. Key Takeaways Ice baths trigger a nervous system shift that reduces inflammation and can induce a meditative state through theta brainwaves. Brown fat acts as a thermogenesis process that converts visceral fat into heat when the body is exposed to cold environments. Mitochondrial function is the core of optimal health, and it can be improved through red light therapy and cold shock proteins. Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training can speed up recovery by 30% by inducing a hormonal cascade of HGH and IGF-1. The presence of oxygen is the absence of disease, as hypoxia is at the root of nearly every major health issue. Voodoo bands provide mechanical compression to flush out waste products and reestablish full range of motion in joints.
