Top Talent Management Group, LLC Launches LIVE DRAFT™—An Executive Combine + Draft Model for Evidence-Based Executive Leader Evaluation
The Californer/10337679

ROSEVILLE, Calif. - Californer -- ROSEVILLE, Calif. — Top Talent Management Group, LLC (TTMG) today announced its official launch and the introduction of LIVE (Labor Industries Vertical Employment) DRAFT™, a new executive evaluation and ranking methodology that applies a true Combine + Draft-style model to enterprise leadership selection.

Modeled after how professional sports identify elite talent (Combine → Draft), LIVE DRAFT™ brings structured, evidence-based scoring to executive evaluation. Rather than relying on résumé-driven screening and subjective interview performance, executives are evaluated and ranked against peers within the same job classification and labor industry.

"LIVE DRAFT™ is not an interview process. This is executive competition," said Ashsha Hickey-Hughes, VP of Marketing at Top Talent Management Group, LLC. "We built LIVE DRAFT™ to move leadership selection toward evidence-only scoring—so organizations can make stronger, clearer, and more defensible decisions."
