I promise I'll post about my actual job (we have a new video to share about Mainframe mod and GenAI!) but as summer winds to a close I wanted to share a charity opportunity related to Golf: https://lnkd.in/g2i6mqfG Ultimately this is about helping kids lead healthier lives and is related to the amazing work that Jack and Barbara Nicklaus have done across the world to help kids heal and thrive with their Play Yellow initiative. My Wife Ashley and her colleague Kelli are going to play 72 holes of golf in one day and they are going to make it rain birdies. If you have a bit of a gambling mindset, you can make a donation based on the number of birdies they're going to make. You can also make an up-front donation. Note that this is focused on Colorado - ask your local pro if something is happening near you! Why is this on LinkedIn? Two reasons - first - this is really the only social media I do. I do so little I don't know if this actually counts as social media. Second - having married a professional golfer I've learned a lot about golf that has surprised me. Watching Ashley and her friends and colleagues navigate a male-dominated world (5% of PGA professionals are women. 5%!) is in many ways a clearer lens to the same challenges we see in technology. The backlash we've seen in some pockets of the world against fostering inclusion - one person's opinion here - ignores the reality that a diversity of thought and opinion makes teams better. Here's a golf example - when you're taking a golf lesson, you are incredibly vulnerable and it can be intimidating - no single approach works for everyone. Finding a coach that resonates with you (and this can be especially hard for women coming to the game, or children wanting to learn) is critical to your experience. There is not a long line to draw between this phenomenon and what we see in technology as leaders, mentors and peers. Also, golf is fundamentally a game of integrity - I've seen remarkable examples of leadership and integrity on the course (look up "Sahith Theegala penalty" for an unbelievable example recently) and again it reminds me of all the things we try to do as leaders and professionals in business. I've always liked the phrase "integrity is what happens when no one is looking" and if golf can help me and others to model that, there's more to the game than I thought. Let me close by saying - for those in the Northern Hemisphere - enjoy the last gasps of summer, whatever brings you outside to do so!

I'm thrilled to share the mission of our non-profit organization dedicated to leveling the playing field. Our initiative revolves around: > Collecting gently used soccer equipment. > Channeling it to those who may not have the means to access these essential tools. Fútbol (or soccer as it's known in many parts of the world), is more than just a game. It's a bridge that connects communities, fosters teamwork, and nurtures dreams. Unfortunately, many budding talents in underprivileged areas lack the resources. That's where we step in. By donating equipment, we're not merely giving away soccer gear. • We're gifting opportunities — and hope. • We're gifting a pathway for children to channel their energies positively. • We're gifting every jersey, ball, and pair of cleats with the hope that they ignite a spark that has the potential to change a life. I urge everyone in my network to support our cause. > Whether you have gear to donate... > Wish to volunteer... > Or can simply spread the word... Your contribution can make a tangible difference. Let's kick-start dreams, one soccer ball at a time. ⚽ DM me "Sport of Dreams" to learn more.

Stories aren’t just a way to connect—they’re hardwired into our brains, making them one of the most powerful tools in fundraising. I’m excited to dive into this topic in an upcoming IDPE masterclass, where we'll explore why narratives resonate so deeply with donors and how you can use them to transform your approach. We’ll uncover the neuroscience behind storytelling, how it triggers emotional responses, builds empathy, and drives action. Whether you're looking to refine your current strategy or start from scratch, this session will give you practical insights to elevate your fundraising efforts. Can’t wait to see you there and unpack the science of powerful storytelling! The Institute of Development Professionals in Education (IDPE) #Fundraising #Storytelling #Neuroscience #DonorEngagement #Masterclass #FundraisingStrategy

As back to school season is in full effect, many parents are busy preparing themselves and their children for the new school year. Educators are also busy preparing for the upcoming school year and some school districts will be fortunate enough to receive financial resources that help them equip its classrooms for new & returning students while others may struggle to make do with outdated resources for their classrooms. It comes as no surprise that Oklahoma ranks poorly amongst other states in the country in education ranking 44th overall in 2024. The Every Student Succeeds Act was signed in 2015 to address advancing equity to disadvantaged & high-need students, however, many school districts continue to miss out on opportunities to better serve its students due to political sentiments that fail to prioritize the next generation of leaders and thinkers. This year I decided to join some of my friends at Generation Why to help gather & distribute school supplies to some of the Oklahoma City Public Schools who were not as fortunate to receive state or federal funding to help provide its students the necessary resources they need for the upcoming school year. Last year #GNWY managed to raise over $12k to help students at F.D. Moon Middle School for the 2023-2024 school year. This year their goal is to raise $10k for more #OKCPS schools and also host another #FillTheBus drive to accept any donations from local businesses & organizations to help steer this mission. If you or your organization is interested in participating, feel free to reach out to my dear friend Jordan at #GNWY to help them acheive their goal for the upcoming school year. Any donations can be distributed to #GNWY before or on August 4th at their #FillTheBus event or online via their website. See details below.

Today, I need your help. As many of you know, I chair the board of directors of BeWell in School, a local nonprofit that empowers schools with self-regulation through movement, mindfulness, and breathing. Our work revolutionizes school wellness and happiness while decreasing disciplinary interventions and improving scholastic outcomes. It is literally life-changing work. This year our board made a major pivot. We saw our school partners struggling with funding due to policy changes post-COVID. Rather than adding expense to the already constrained budgets of underfunded public schools, we committed to covering as many of their BeWell programming costs as we could jointly afford. Our partners still invest heavily through paying teacher salaries, but our team now works to cover other costs by partnering with philanthropic individuals and groups who want to see our schools improve. We have an aggressive goal to raise $100,000 by the end of 2024. Today, I'm asking for your help in meeting this goal. If you want to support an organization that helps students and teachers in a time of great need, then please click the link below and donate what you feel comfortable giving. https://lnkd.in/e4zr7a5A My company, Expedition Group, has committed to a $5,000 investment in this cause, and I'm hoping to find others who want to match that commitment. Who else will rise to the occasion and support this cause with me?
