Welcome to Culture Over Quota — a new segment within The E1B2 Collective Podcast hosted by Anthony “AJ” Vaughan. In this series, AJ merges two worlds that rarely speak the same language: HR and Revenue. Drawing from his journey as a founder, CHRO, CRO, and builder of multiple HR tech ventures, AJ unpacks what it truly means to scale businesses without burning out people, teams, or purpose.
This isn’t another “hit your number” sales show — it’s a raw and forward-thinking exploration of how culture, leadership, and human psychology shape every quota you chase. AJ delves into the real tensions between founders and VCs, CHROs and CROs, sellers and buyers, and reveals how companies that prioritize people over profit actually win bigger, faster, and longer.
Expect candid stories, lived lessons, and deep dives into the future of HR tech, sales culture, and organizational design — all anchored in one belief:
If you build culture first, the quota takes care of itself.
