South Carolina won, with a perfect 37-0 record and new fans of women’s basketball continue repeating the tired refrain that “Caitlyn single-handedly revolutionized women’s basketball.” This discourse seems to suggest that commercials, interviews, magazine covers, sponsorships and promos invest in themselves. CC is an exceptional offensive talent, but the overinvestment in her brand is what made women’s basketball more watchable. Clark literally cannot do that herself. Just because you never watched women’s basketball before does not mean there was no prior electrifying talent worth the same investment Clark is now receiving. The fact that so many people are spending more time playing defense for Caitlyn (something she doesn’t do very well), and less time celebrating South Carolina’s 37-0 victory, shows me how and why CC has the fandom she does: we are more invested in racial narratives (about Black girls as “ghetto,” “mean,” etc. and white girls as “classy”) than we are in the beauty of the sport itself. To be clear: talking about race does not take away from Caitlyn’s greatness. It just exposes the lie that greatness never existed before her.

I love listening to Dan Campbell, every time I find another clip on the net somewhere - there is always some small gold nugget of truth, of wisdom, and passion in it. The problem in business today, is there are oh so few leaders who will put it all out there, put everything on the line, and risk it all. Not being reckless - but taking calculated risk outside of our comfort zones! My observation over many decades - there are too many employees, too many managers, and too many executives who just want to play the game and survive to the next 'game'. Just hang on to the job, hang on to the title, hang on to the office and the perks. Always jockeying for position or planning the next moves to the next promotion - instead of working to create legendary legacies for their colleagues, their companies, their clients and customers. May we model the spirit and ethic of Dan Campbell, and regardless of our position or station in life - may we play like LIONS! #leadership
How can you not LOVE Dan Campbell? This is from 2 years ago and his plan for the Detroit Lions has them on the brink of the Super Bowl. He cares about his guys soooo much, they bought into his vision and made it their identity.

How does this passionate speech matter in terms of what we do every day at PRI Global... We work tirelessly every single day to prepare our staff so we meet the needs of every single one of our clients. It's an absolute necessity to set a foundation and an expectation. There's a great quote, "Luck Is What Happens When Preparation Meets Opportunity". PRI Global is where the foundation of excellence EXCEEDS expectations. What resonates for me with Dan Campbell is his thought process. If you work in talent or the talent solutions space, you have to love it. You have to wake up thinking about how you can be better, this second, this minute, this hour, this day for your teammates and your clients alike. We live this every single day at PRI GLOBAL.

An interesting article on life in the NIL era. In addition to the University of Colorado's large contingent of media staff, Deion Sanders, Jr. has a separate social media empire, and runs the YouTube channels of several Buffaloes' players. Coach Prime bankrolls Deion Jr.'s venture, and given his both personal and financial investment in the players, I doubt Coach Prime plans to leave Colorado anytime soon. (This article doesn't discuss another member of the social media team, Darius Sanders, who isn't related to the other Sanderses) https://lnkd.in/gv-d_4Rp

This is what true leadership looks like. As leaders we should all be this fired up everyday to come in and make an impact on our teams. If you care this much about your team, you will be amazed by what they can accomplish.

The best leaders lead with love. They are kind and care for their teams, and will always look to put them in the best situations to succeed. They don't lead through fear, and they certainly don't take a "my way or the highway" approach. They will listen, and share why what they are doing is best for the team’s growth – even if it is a tough or unpopular decision. The way Dan Campbell speaks to his team here, you can tell that he is a coach who LOVES his team. It should be no surprise that he's gotten his team to buy into what he's building. #leadership #love #trust

Powerful speaker. If you get a chance, read his book..
My pregame speech in Cleveland focused more on the future than any talk I've given to our organization. After launching our first ever Banana Ball Youth Tournament in Cleveland with 900 kids, I knew going into our fourth MLB Stadium, we had a much bigger responsibility to these kids than ever before. Before the game, I wanted to leave the right message to our entire organization about the obligation we had with the next generation of Banana Ball players in the audience. What were they going to see from us? How were we going to make them feel? What fans first moments would we create for them? I believe 100% that these kids could be the future of Banana Ball. What they experienced from us would help shape their views on not only what the Bananas were all about but what Fans First was all about. We owed it to them to show the fun and joy we bring to the game but also the dedication that we bring to the fans. And not just the fans in general, but our focus on one fan at a time, and one kid at a time. As we always say, "Every game is someone's first game," but this night felt even more important because of what it could mean for the future. At the end of the night our goal was to leave Cleveland proud of the experience we provided. I'm proud to say we did that and then some and I'm so grateful for our team for always believing in who we are, what we stand for and delivering on that promise.

Tyler Perry's decision to leave Hollywood? Creative control: By leaving Hollywood, Perry gained complete creative control over his projects, allowing him to tell stories that reflected the experiences and perspectives of Black people without interference from industry gatekeepers. Inclusivity: Perry wanted to create a space where Black talent could thrive and feel represented. He saw an opportunity to build a community where Black writers, directors, and actors could work together and support each other. Atlanta's film-friendly environment: Atlanta offers a more business-friendly environment, with lower production costs, tax incentives, and a growing pool of talented local crew members. This allowed Perry to produce high-quality content without breaking the bank. Access to diverse storytelling: Atlanta's diverse population and rich cultural heritage provided Perry with access to unique stories and perspectives that might be harder to find in Los Angeles. As for why other Black entrepreneur executives in the film industry haven't followed suit, there are several reasons: Lack of access to resources: Starting a studio or production company requires significant resources, including funding, equipment,and infrastructure. Many Black entrepreneurs may not have access to these resources
