About this episode
Robert Glazer discusses the concept of an A Player in organizations and clarifies its often misunderstood definition.
In a special bonus of the Elevate Podcast, host Robert Glazer and producer Mick Sloan analyze the concept of an A Player at an organization, another name for a top performer. Robert explains why this label is often misunderstood, and why the true definition of an A Player is temporary, not permanent.
