The Walk Podcast: Recent Episodes
Eric Levin at Model Match
The Walk Podcast is an idea that came from years of conversations with individuals and organizations about strategic growth and expansion. What you quickly learn in those talks is that growth is a science that involves things like identifying and matching core competencies. But it’s also an art, because the good stuff—the things that really lead to breakthroughs and success—happens in the margins.
These are the things you learn when you go for a walk with someone.
Eric Levin is the co-founder of Model Match, a talent management software solution, and he’s spent his career working with individuals and organizations as a consultant, recruiter, and partner in strategic growth.
He’s had the unique opportunity to hear a lifetime’s worth of stories around success and failure. In each episode we’ll take a walk with one of the industry’s most influential people to find out what they learned along the way.
