Paul Edelman is a psychologist who has worked with some of the world’s most successful hedge fund managers. Today we take a deep dive into how psychological techniques can be used to look for investment managers, how Paul applied what he learned from great mentors to filter for the investment management skill set, the importance and uncovering of conceptual and probabilistic thinkers, and why you shouldn’t use Myers Briggs. We get a bit into some very interesting weeds including some history of psychology and analytical concepts, but Paul has a great way of tying it all together to more deeply understand how people think about markets and interact with each other in high-pressure situations.

Please enjoy my fascinating conversation with Paul Edelman.
