What does it actually mean to be a high performer?

Aaron Salko grew up washing dishes at seven, then afterwards played D1 baseball at Seton Hall. His background in psychology, biology, and sales forced him to study why some people perform and why others don't.

He and his business partner turned ten years of sales strategy sessions into a book, then a framework, and then a platform.... The result?

The Ninth Stratum: a five-category, 45-skill operating system for human performance.

In our episode we covered:

→ The five categories of high performance, and the one everyone skips

→ How toxic performers aren't broken, but just deficient in specific skills

→ What alcohol is actually doing to your recovery

→ The "threshold" technique Aaron uses to transition between roles and why it works

Aaron, thank ...
