He can’t jump very high. He’s not very fast. In fact, he fails the ‘eyeball’ test in nearly every basketball category. And yet, Shane Battier has proved to be invaluable to every team he has ever suited up for. In this impassioned and inspiring presentation, Battier shares with audiences the ways in which he believes sacrifice, ownership, embracing failure, championship professionalism, and a Hunger Games mentality contribute to the powerful and significant intersection of art and commerce. A genuine team player, he knows that champions are often made when no one is looking and encourages audience members to always do what it takes for the team to succeed—whether their efforts receive recognition or not. Stats don’t always tell the story of value, and Battier is living proof.
Book Vineeta to bring a unique blend of creativity, analytics, and real-world problem-solving, drawing from her rich experiences at Uber Eats, Spotify, and IBM. Her journey as a first-generation daughter of Indian immigrants and her commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion will inspire and challenge your team to think differently. Booking her as a speaker will provide actionable insights into product and operations strategy and foster a culture of empathy and innovation in your business.
