    Top 4 Takeaways:

    1. Believe in yourself. There are enough naysayers in the world you don’t have to add your voice to the list.
    2. Know your own worth. Every time you say yes to something you say no to something else so be choiceful about when you compromise if you have to compromise at all.
    3. No one else knows what they are doing either. Find your voice and project confidence. Knowing everything is not a prerequisite to finding success. Put the work in, do your research, and advocate for your ideas.
    4. To be successful you’ve got to have tenacity, ambition, action, creativity, and trust. If you reach your goal too soon you probably didn’t set the goal high enough.

    6. 121. Ticket Sales Success with Brooke Ellenberger, VP of tickets at the Tennessee Titans

      Brooke Ellenberger is the Vice President of ticketing at the Tennessee Titans. She’s a sales leader, hiring manager, and career coach inside her role at the Titans. She’s worked for the Saints, Astros, and Titans which has allowed her to build her sales skill across two of the big four.

      Top 4 Takeaways:

      1. To level-up, it is essential to find your outlet for stress relief!
      2. When hiring employees, ask consistent questions that support the company culture. Start out with questions like, “What’s your biggest pet peeve?” and “What do your friends make fun of you for?” to break the ice and learn more about the individual on a personal level.
      3. When managing employees, create clear outcomes but leave room for them to create their own success. Explain A & Z and let them come up with how to get from A to Z.
      4. The three keys to success in ticket sales are confidence, persistence, and charisma.

      6. 120. It’s Not Personal. Go For It. Katie Woods, Tournament Director, NBC World Series

        Katie Woods, Tournament Director - NBC World Series | Marketing Director - Wichita Sports Commission

        Minor League Baseball (MiLB) Named league’s Woman Executive of the Year in 2019 (California League), 2015 & 2013 (Northwest League)

        Creative & passionate sports executive with more than a decade of leadership experience in Minor League Baseball. Specializing in business operations, fan experience, digital marketing, corporate partnerships, communications, and project management for successful franchises across the country.

        Top 4 Takeaways:

        1. It’s important for leaders (both men and women) to elevate  their staff and put them in positions to grow and be successful. Katie’s GM in Everett gave her opportunities to network and grow - Winter Meetings, Promo Seminar, community connections, sales trainings etc., and also advocated for her when she was pregnant with her first daughter at a team without an existing maternity leave policy. Use this as an example of how to advocate for staff when you are in a leadership position.
        2. Be prepared for a challenge. Decisions about life and career, and being prepared for things to always be changing, even when you're settled into what you think is your 'dream job'.
        3. It's not personal. Step back and see the other person's perspective is a  valuable skill, versus taking a lack of response/a negative response/a lack of support as a personal slight.
        4. Networking and asking for help and expertise. Some of the  best connections and friends in the industry have been from essentially cold calling them because they are doing something great. Have the desire to want to learn from them. Be curious.
        5. Quote: ​​“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!” Hunter S Thompson

        6. 119: Get Uncomfortable and Grow with Courtney Rice, VP of REVELxp

          Courtney Rice, Vice President at REVELxp

          REVELxp says that the EXPERIENCE around game day has fractured. How can fans rediscover their PASSION for in-person attendance at games and events? Who will make every EVERY MOMENT more momentous? REVELxp is ready to reignite, reimagine and redefine game day.

          Top 4 Takeaways:

          1. Push yourself to get uncomfortable and do the things you don’t want to do. It’s outside your comfort zone where growth happens!
          2. When it comes to sales in today’s marketplace, get creative, get curious, and practice resilience. Ask yourself, how are you reaching them in the way they want to be reached?
          3. Opportunity must exist around you to be promoted. Where are there gaps that you can help fill? Build your presence through working in the gaps.
          4. Be able to take feedback and coaching. Worst case scenario is that 5% of feedback is true which means there is a takeaway for self-improvement from all feedback.
          5. QUOTE: “Be willing to get uncomfortable. With discomfort comes growth.” OR “Comfort zones are most often expanded through discomfort.” Peter McWilliams

          8. 116. Quiet Quitting and Acting your Wage with Emily and Paige

            Contrary to all we have learned and been taught, like this quote from Zig Ziglar, "Do more than you are being paid to do, and you'll eventually be paid more for what you do." Many workers are breaking the cycle.


            Stats:

            Quiet Quitters make up for 50% of the U.S. workforce
            The ratio of engaged to actively disengaged employees is now 1.8 to 1, the lowest in almost a decade.
