Show Notes

What does it take to build a high-performing organization that lives its values—not just plasters them on a poster?

Brian Riley, VP of Global Talent Acquisition and HR Shared Services at Riot Games, shares how the gaming company refreshes, embeds, and operationalizes its values across the entire hiring lifecycle. From behavioral interview kits to identifying internal “bar raisers”, this is how elite companies build cultural alignment at scale.

Brian also shares:

  • Why Riot’s current hiring focus is “talent density”
  • How he preps for meetings with high-level executives
  • Why the best leaders leverage both empathy and hard data
