Lombardi is a former NFL general manager and three-time Super Bowl-winning executive, after thirty years working for the New England Patriots, San Francisco 49ers, the Oakland Raiders, and the Cleveland Browns. He writes a column for The Athletic and hosts his own podcast, “The GM Shuffle.” Lombardi is also the author of Gridiron Genius where he provides the blueprint that makes a successful organization click and win, and the mistakes unsuccessful organizations make that keep them on the losing side.
Vaynerchuk is the Co-CEO of VaynerSports and oversees the company’s entire operation. In 2009, prior to founding VaynerSports, he and his brother Gary started VaynerMedia, an advertising agency. While working on VaynerMedia, Vaynerchuk was an active angel investor, counting Uber and Venmo as successful startups in his portfolio. He is currently a proud board member of the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation.
The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania is the business school of the University of Pennsylvania, a private Ivy League university in Philadelphia. Established in 1881, the Wharton School is the world’s oldest collegiate school of business and today has more than 90,000 active alumni worldwide.
