Today, I have secured an exclusive interview with Brandt Tilis, Vice President of Football Operations for the Kansas City Chiefs. This is a rare opportunity as Brandt doesn't often step into the limelight. A big shoutout to the kind soul who made this introduction possible. 

Brandt takes us inside the Chiefs' season, shedding light on his unique role managing the salary cap and negotiating player contracts. 

Key Takeaways from Brandt:
1. Authenticity: Brandt emphasizes being true to himself with no facades.

2. Diverse Viewpoints: "Our GM Brett Veach does an amazing job getting a diverse viewpoint before making a final decision."

3. How I Spend My Days: Brandt provides insight into the relentless nature of his role, constantly building relationships, gathering intel, and executing deals.

4. Honesty: "When there's 1 truth, it's a lot easier to just keep up with that one truth." Brandt underlines the importance of focusing on a single truth, simplifying decision-making and facilitating continuous improvement within the organization.

This episode offers an exclusive look into the inner workings of one of the NFL's elite franchises through the eyes of Brandt Tilis. Stay tuned for the full conversation, where we explore the front office perspective and gain valuable insights. Stick around after the exit music for something silly and serious : )
