The HR Capitalist

SEPTEMBER 5, 2019

The coach of the Oakland Raiders, Jon Gruden, spent over 5 minutes in a recent episode evaluating backup quarterbacks, with a job in the NFL on the line. . There's a millions things that go into a decision on succession, who gets the promotion and other spoils of career advancement. I'm here today to talk about one of those things - being an alpha. All things being equal, the leaders who make decisions about who moves up in the organization want someone who can take charge and lead.

After teaching AP World History in Oakland, CA, where she served on the frontlines in the fight to protect an inclusive AP World curriculum, she changed roles to entrepreneur and founder in 2018. The spread of the coronavirus has severely impacted so many industries and businesses, and founders across the startup world, are moving quickly to adapt to this new reality. The general advice coming from venture capitalists has been to stay lean and don’t expect that fundraising will happen.

Capitalist Note - If you follow sports, you may have heard that the Oakland Raiders (soon to be the Las Vegas Raiders) are set to hire Jon Gruden , current ABC/ESPN commentator, past head coach in the NFL and yes, a white guy. It's said at this writing to be a done deal, but the Raiders have to interview other candidates as required by the NFL's Rooney Rule. I'm re-running this post to explore the merits of forcing managers to interview minority candidates in searches.

That's a quote from the movie Moneyball, in which Brad Pitt plays Billy Beane, an executive for the professional baseball Oakland A's, who has to figure out how to stay competitive when virtual ATMs like the Yankees and Red Sox steal his best players via offers he can't afford to match. You just lost another one. People are looking to you, because. well, you're the HR leader and you're responsible for turnover, right? Of course, you know that there are a lot of reasons that people leave.

The Pro-Bowl wide receiver became a locker room problem for the Pittsburgh Steelers and was traded to the Oakland Raiders in the off-season. However, Brown never played a game for Oakland and, through a series of bizarre events, essentially forced his release from the team and joined the New England Patriots for the 2019 season. If you're a football fan, you're probably very familiar with the Antonio Brown situation.

In Moneyball,  which is based on the 2003 book of the same name by Michael Lewis , Pitt plays Billy Beane, general manager of the Oakland Athletics. Who could resist a movie with Brad Pitt? Pitt or no Pitt, I normally stay away from sports movies. But  Moneyball is no ordinary sports movie. It’s a lesson in hiring to which all small- and large-business owners should pay attention. Baseball’s Mistake in Identifying Top Talent. The basic premise behind Moneyball.

Al Davis, the funky longtime owner of the NFL's Oakland Raiders, died this weekend. May the world remember you in your 1970s and 80's glory and not what happend in Oakland since 2000. Things Al Davis will always be remembered for: --Building a franchise culture that embodied renegades and misfits, and still winning in the early days (but not lately). Drafting Jamarcus Russell out of LSU, giving him $30M large and never having him produce.

It is most commonly used to refer to the strategy used by the front office of the Oakland Athletics. That made Scheinman a lot like the Oakland A''s when it came to talent he could attract on his own. Moneyball - A term describing baseball operations in which a team endeavors to analyze the market for baseball players and buy what is undervalued and sell what is overvalued. Unlike a common misconception, it is not about OBP, but whatever is undervalued at that time.

I'm not asking for the Oakland A's version of Major League, but don't get serious with this cast in place. Question to HR pros: Have you read the book Moneyball by Michael Lewis ? If not, stop and order it now. I know. KD talks too much about sports. HR pros, especially the women in our industry, don't connect with you when you talk sports, KD. Blah, blah, blah. Couple of things on that front.

After wrapping up an 8-8 season, the Oakland Raiders fired coach Hue Jackson after just one year of coaching. When it comes to coaching, a termination is much more than the loss of a job. It has the potential to tarnish one’s reputation and damage a coaching career for life. For the most part, coaches are measured on their wins and losses. They depend on the talent, health, and cooperation of their players to make wins happen, but when the team falls short, somebody is to blame.

San Francisco is WAY more expensive than Portland - even moving out of the actual city and into a nearby area (Oakland, Berkeley, Daly City, Marin) can be extremely expensive. Evil HR Lady Why am I evil? Well, Im not, but thats the perception of all of us in HR. Need to fire someone? Come to HR. Need to explain to someone why, even after working their rear end off all year, that their annual increase is 2.7%? Come to HR. Need to come up with new mountains of paperwork? Come to HR.
