What this episode covers
This episode is the conclusion of my Conversation with former Michigan Athletic Director and Ford Motor Company CEO Jim Hackett. In this episode, the business of running a business and the challenges of moving that business in to the 21st century takes a back seat. What is front and center in this episode is the job of the modern day athletic director. It's a tough job given the direction of NIL, and the transfer portal. But, what might be tougher is identifying and hiring a head football coach who can navigate these rough and tumultuous waters and win with integrity. That's exactly what Hackett had to do when he took the job as Athletic Director at Michigan. The story of his journey to hire Jim Harbaugh is quite an adventure. You get to hear it all today in my Conversation with...Jim Hackett
