Learning leadership and diversity through sports both on and off the basketball court

The basketball court is more than just a place to play the game – it serves as an experiential classroom for leadership and diversity. The skills that players develop on the court can have a positive impact not only on themselves, but also on their communities. By fostering inclusion, embracing diversity, and breaking down barriers, leaders in basketball can contribute to creating a more equitable and understanding society.

In a discussion moderated by James Cash, the James E. Robinson Professor of Business Administration, Emeritus, Harvard affiliates and leaders both on and off the court come together to explore how sports can be a powerful tool for social change. They discuss how the impact of sports goes beyond the court, and how individuals can further amplify this impact to create a more inclusive and accepting society.

It is important for all comments to be on-topic and civil in tone, with no name calling or personal attacks. Any promotional language or URLs will be removed immediately. Comments may be edited for clarity and length. Join the discussion and learn how you can be a part of using sports to drive social change and create a more inclusive community.
