I met @jgirzadas at the Masters and knew this conversation was worth sharing.

He's CEO of @DeloitteUS and still thinks about a moment on a baseball mound when his coach walked out to give him advice.

At mile 120 of a 207-mile race, Mike Perry was sick, exhausted, and had 80 miles left. Then a peloton swept past, and everything changed.

She had no leverage. No show. No track record.

When @FoodNetwork came calling, @GDeLaurentiis said: real kitchen. Real family. Real friends. Or no deal.

Dutch Bros CEO Christine Barone was co-captain of her Harvard water polo team in a sport she'd never played before joining. Not the best player. The best teammate. That philosophy now runs a nearly $2B company. Listen now! https://t.co/ltfeff1ATO

I always knew Jack Nicklaus and I had much in common…then today he showed the world what I’ve taught him over the years after working on “The Best Seat in the House” book together. 😂
