In this episode, Tyson discusses the qualities he looks for in team members, whom they affectionately refer to as "peeps” (more so “PEEEEps”) Tyson breaks down the meaning behind each letter of the word which is connected to different attributes.

4 | Edge

The third “E” is edge. Individuals with edge are able to look at problems from all angles. They also know when to stop assessing and make a decision.
