Money Ball's Endgame

KP Unpacked is the #1 podcast in AEC—and for good reason. In this episode, KP Reddy and Jeff Echols start with baseball and end up somewhere way more urgent: the death of innovation-as-edge. From Moneyball to AI, from power drills to predictive hiring, they unpack what happens after everyone catches up—and what firms should do next to keep their advantage.KP drops insights on fast feedback loops, tech resistance in AEC, and why real innovation today comes from judgment, not just data. They also explore how AI is rewriting the rules in venture, recruiting, sports betting, and founder evaluation. If your firm is still calling BIM “innovation,” this one’s for you.“The thing about building an edge is… you rarely get to keep it.”🔗 Resources & Mentions in This Episode📘 Book: Creating the Intangible Enterprise by KP Reddy — Available on Amazon and Audible📽️ Movie Reference: Moneyball (2011) – starring Brad Pitt, based on the book by Michael Lewis🧠 KP’s LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kpreddy – follow to predict next week’s podcast topic🎤 AEC Summit Archives: YouTube Channel – features past Summit presentations, including from unicorns like Anduril, OneTrust, and Greenlight🧰 Tools Mentioned:ChatGPT / AI (for resume filtering, betting models, etc.)PipeDrive CRMCrowdStrike, Microsoft CloudSam.AI (voice-based CRM mentioned indirectly)
