Right-Fit Leader
The Right Fit Leader Podcast helps visionary entrepreneurs and executives answer one of the toughest growth questions: How do I find and keep the right leaders for my team?
Hosted by Alec Broadfoot, founder of VisionSpark, and the Hire with Confidence Team, the show explores the intersection of leadership, culture, and hiring. Each episode unpacks what makes a leader truly “right fit” — from core values alignment and complementary strengths to overcoming fear, bias, and the status quo in decision-making.
Through candid insights, expert conversations, and real-world stories, Alec challenges conventional thinking about leadership and equips business owners with the tools to design teams that scale. If you’re ready to level up your hiring and build a team that drives extraordinary growth, this podcast is for you.

Too many visionary leaders hire in the dark, hoping intuition will land the right candidate. The truth? Most hiring mistakes aren’t about the people you bring in they’re about the clarity, process, and buy-in you didn’t have before the interview.
In this episode of The Right Fit Leader Podcast, Alec Broadfoot and Josh Smith break down three of the most common hiring pitfalls:
Vague role definitions — starting the search without clarity on traits, values, and responsibilities.
No true hiring process — relying on gut feel and inconsistent methods instead of a proven blueprint.
Lack of team alignment — making a hire without stakeholder input or buy-in, setting the new leader up for failure.
At VisionSpark, we believe hiring isn’t guesswork — it’s strategy. Listen in to learn how to build clarity, consistency, and confidence into your hiring process so you can avoid costly mis-hires and bring in leaders who fit, align, and thrive.

Fear, trust, and perception drive more business decisions than spreadsheets ever will. In this special series, Alec Broadfoot and Casey Brown dive into the psychology behind pricing and leadership:
Why pricing isn’t math, it’s psychology — and how fear and perception shape buying decisions.
Why core values alignment is the gatekeeper in hiring, and how complementary strengths unlock team performance.
How negativity bias and the illusion of safety keep leaders stuck in the status quo.
Why the real risk isn’t raising the price or paying more for an A-player — it’s staying stuck in average results.
At VisionSpark, we believe hiring is just as much about psychology as pricing. Resumes may show data, but success comes from understanding people, values, and leadership potential. These conversations challenge leaders to rethink how they approach growth, risk, and the people they surround themselves with.
