Ben Leber & Ted Johnson
June 18th, 2020 - 8am CST
About the Speakers
We are taking the field for a Think & Link centered around the current state of sports. We have Ben Leber, former Viking player and current KFAN announcer along with Ted Johnson, former head of strategy and marketing for our beloved Timberwolves. Ben Leber is an indirect client of Capsule through his and our work on the Ben Leber St. Jude Golf Celebration. Ted was a central figure in moving the Timberwolves organization from a basketball team to a sports and entertainment experience. So, we may have to talk golf, alongside football and of course basketball (but no bowling, thank goodness) in our discussion.
About Think & Link
We will again be discussing the topics of the week sparked by questions from my co-host Kelly Leighton and myself, Aaron Keller. We invented Think & Link during the last recession and have gratefully kept it going as a monthly event for a decade. As we all face these strange times, our team looks to do what we can do to help connect our friends and nourish their intellectual curiosity.
Think & Link; Pants Optional, is our way of giving something to our community as we seek new opportunities, friendships and professions. And, we’re a curious crew here at Capsule, so we’re always looking to learn from our significant network of thinkers and doers.
