On this episode, we speak to former CIA operative Marc Polymeropoulos on how to recruit a spy. Marc retired from the Senior Intelligence Service ranks in 2019 after serving for 26 years in the Intelligence Community in operational field and leadership assignments. He is an expert in counterterrorism, covert action, and human intelligence collection. Marc is one of the IC's most highly decorated field officers and has honed a unique leadership style based on decision making under pressure, inclusivity, camaraderie, and competition. His book "Clarity in Crisis: Leadership Lessons from the CIA" was published in June 2021 by Harper Collins.  Marc is a sought after speaker, and travels the world providing leadership guidance to both public and private sector clients. He also is an intelligence and foreign policy contributor for MSNBC and appears frequently on “Morning Joe,” and also is a non resident senior fellow at the Atlantic Council.  Most recently, Marc served as the technical advisor for the movie “Equalizer 3” starring Denzel Washington.
