How often do you think about your rejections? I’m sure it’s more often than we’d like. But how often do you showcase your rejections? That definitely happens less often. Maybe it’s time we started considering new ways to approach our pitfalls. Our next award-winning, NFL coaching speaker Daron Roberts, is ready to tackle this. Strap in. In the summer of 2006, Daron was sitting on a conveyor belt that ran through Harvard Law School and made frequent drop-offs at Wall Street law firms when he decided to embark on a coaching career. That gamble led to a seven-year stint as an NFL and college football coach.
Currently, Daron helps propel athletes beyond their sport as the founding director of the Center for Sports Leadership & Innovation at the University of Texas. He is an award-winning lecturer that teaches courses on innovation, risk, and leadership. Daron holds a B.A. from UT, and M.P.P. and J.D. from Harvard. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
