We don’t chase novelty tools. We focus on the thinking and structure that makes any tool useful: clear role briefs, behaviours over labels, constraints and trade-offs, repeatable shortlisting, and decision review that actually improves the process. Each episode gives you something you can use: - Role Definition Templates (behaviour-based, not position labels) - Question sets that lead to better shortlists - Meeting Structures that stop recruitment becoming a persuasion contest - Simple Ways to Stress-Test Decisions (“what would make this wrong?”) - How AI Fits Safely: drafting, checking, standardising outputs — never replacing judgement If you work in recruitment, scouting, analysis, coaching, or you’re aiming to, this show is for you. Clarity First. Tools Second.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-i-in-football-6622013"},"episode":{"title":"Ep40: Behaviours Over Labels: Writing Role Definitions AI Can Follow","slug":"ep40-behaviours-over-labels-writing-role-definitions-ai-can-follow","published_at":"2025-12-26T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-i-in-football-6622013/ep40-behaviours-over-labels-writing-role-definitions-ai-can-follow","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/a-i-in-football-6622013","url":"https://atc.captivate.fm/episode/ep40-","audio_url":"https://episodes.captivate.fm/episode/96e6bd8a-98be-47b9-b6ca-5b8c2abb3bb9.mp3","summary":"Join the Free Kickstart Challenge Summary In this episode of the Football Insights Academy podcast, hosts Tom Butterfield and David Bromley discuss various themes surrounding football recruitment, particularly focusing on the importance of role definitions and behaviours over labels.
