We’re kicking off Season 4 of The Huddle in a BIG way. This first episode was filmed in front of an in-person audience at the National Retail Federation’s NRF 2023 conference – known as “Retail’s Big Show.” I’m proud to chair the NRF’s Board of Directors, and I was thrilled to introduce the audience to a big-time guest: Dr. James Cash. I’ve known Dr. Cash for many years, and I am so inspired by his story.
In this episode, Dr. Cash talks about what drove him to break through so many hurdles and do things no one else had ever done – from becoming the first Black basketball player in the Southwest Conference to the first tenured Black faculty member at Harvard Business School. His mom taught him a mantra that he's always lived by: “If the elevator is broken, take the stairs.” I hope you’ll watch this episode and see the incredible power displayed in Dr. Cash’s perseverance
