Scott O’neill spent eight years as the CEO of the Philadelphia 76’ers and the New Jersey Devils through his role as the CEO of Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment. This alone is incredible, the 76’ers and the Devils were only one of the many organizations Scott directed as the CEO over those eight years. Being the CEO of an organization as established as the 76’ers is a massive achievement in and of itself. Managing multiple teams at that caliber at the same time is truly another level. Scott has moved on from that chapter of his life, becoming an author of the incredible book “Be Where Your Feet Are: Seven Principles to Keep You Present, Grounded, and Thriving.” This amazing book dives into the vulnerable methods Scott has used to find balance being the CEO of the 76’ers and the Devils, a husband, a father, mentor, coach, and leader to thrive in his life. In this episode, we specifically dive into:

• How to have and build discipline
• The power of strategic sacrifices to achieve success
• How to create balance in your life
• The importance of being where your feet are
• How to use transitory periods in your day to do more
• The importance of creating space for quality time
• How do you build a successful team? 

Team, this man is truly one of the best. He is a huge inspiration to me and I hope you receive as much value from this episode as I have. Follow Scott at the following links. Cheers legends!
