For our next feature in the JKJ Women Who Inspire Series, we are thrilled to spotlight an individual making waves in the sports industry— Magdalene Zerbe, Sr. Content Producer and Strategist at the Philadelphia 76ers. Maggie graduated from Muhlenberg College, earning her Bachelor of Arts in Communication & Media Studies while playing for the women’s basketball team. After college, she started her career at NFL Films, where she worked as a producer intern and then a production assistant, producing content for HBO’s Hard Knocks and Showtime’s Inside the NFL. Today, her role at the 76ers has allowed her to leverage her love for Philadelphia and its rich, diverse community, creating content that resonates deeply with fans and tells stories where we live, work, and play. “Since working for the 76ers, I have found that some of the most impactful work we do is off the court and in the community. The most successful projects have really been about the people behind the team and the individuals who support our organization and the community. From a content perspective, it’s our goal to find ways to tap into the emotion behind the city’s deep love for its sports teams. We have an incredible platform here and the chance to impact far beyond the final score. Finding those stories and doing them justice are the most important wins for me.” In addition to Maggie’s work creating content for the 76ers on gameday and beyond, her desire to work with WNBA players and Philadelphia natives, like Natasha Cloud and Kahleah Copper, to launch projects, such as the 76ers exclusive merchandise line, 76 Originals, exhibits her commitment to amplifying the voices of female athletes. Projects like this demonstrate Maggie’s devotion to expanding narratives and providing a platform for underrepresented voices across Philadelphia.

We're thrilled to introduce the next feature in our JKJ Women Who Inspire series: Susan Williamson, Senior Vice President of Business Operations at The Philadelphia 76ers. Susan is an incredible role model who encourages stepping outside one's comfort zone and embracing authenticity! "Throughout my career, I’ve decorated my office with a few meaningful pieces to inspire and remind me of my leadership goals. One has been Forbes’ “The World’s 100 Most Power Women” list. These incredible women and their accomplishments have set the bar and anchored my aspirations, motivating me to challenge the status quo. I was the first woman selected to be the head manager for The University of Virginia’s Men’s Basketball Team, pioneering new territory. Post-graduation, I chose, at the time, the unconventional path of ticket sales to start my career in sports marketing with the New York Knicks. From there, it’s been 20+ years of constant learning, embracing the unexpected and striving for excellence. Like another piece of art on my wall now reminds me daily: Be Bold, Brave & Brilliant." Throughout her impressive career in sports, Susan has continuously pushed boundaries. Whether it was going back to school full-time for her MBA or raising her hand for projects outside her expertise, her genuineness, resilience and comfort with ambiguity have defined her leadership style. In 2019, Susan was a recipient of Philadelphia Business Journal’s “Forty Under 40” honors; in 2020, she was selected from an international pool of senior industry executives to Leaders in Sports acclaimed “Leaders Under 40” list. One of the more fulfilling aspects of Susan's journey has been witnessing the success of those she's mentored and managed. She takes great pride in seeing them thrive in their careers and personal lives.
