#rhrinternational — Public Fediverse posts

I'm hiring an Analytics Engineer (GCP) to join my team at RHR International.
What you'd actually be doing: building and owning our analytics foundation in a Google Cloud GCP-first environment — BigQuery, Data/Looker Studio, Python, SQL, GitHub, Docker. Real production work, version-controlled and documented, not throwaway queries.
RHR is a leadership consulting firm that's been around for 80+ years. We're cloud-first, SaaS-only, no on-prem. Small IT team, which means your work matters immediately.
What I'm looking for beyond the technical skills: curiosity, self-direction, and the ability to explain what you built and why to people who don't write code. Bonus points if you've fixed something nobody asked you to fix.
Hybrid in Chicago preferred, remote considered.
Apply here: https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/4399748962/
If you know someone who fits, I'd appreciate the tag or share.

Today I'm attending C-Vision International's CIO & CISO Think Tank here in Chicago, and the agenda is not messing around.

Agentic AI risks. Shadow AI governance. Vulnerability management in a world where AI has collapsed the exploitation window to near zero. And yes, a session on why soft skills are still the real differentiator for leaders in this space.

Good rooms make you think differently. This is one of those rooms.

In the world of private equity, the leadership team is the most significant factor in a portfolio company's success. Many firms still rely on gut instinct or a familiar Rolodex when appointing executives. However, the most successful investors are shifting toward a rigorous, data-backed approach to talent. They recognize that an executive who thrived in a stable corporate environment might fail in the high-velocity, high-leverage world of a PE-backed exit strategy.

Building the right team requires looking beyond the resume and analyzing how a leader’s specific competencies align with the value creation plan. You cannot expect a turnaround specialist to manage a period of aggressive organic growth effectively. The goal is to move past individual brilliance and focus on how the executive team functions as a unit under pressure.

🧠 Effective PE firms align executive assessments with the specific goals of the investment thesis.
⚡ Speed to value is the primary driver for leadership decisions.
🎓 Success depends on the team's ability to execute a high-stakes pivot within a short window.
🔍 Behavioral data is becoming as important as financial performance when evaluating a CEO.
