Edward Snider is CEO of Comcast-Spectacor, a company that owns the Philadelphia Flyers and Philadelphia 76ers basketball team, the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia where the teams play, and several other sports-related businesses. For his many accomplishments in his hockey career, Snider was elected to the US Hockey Hall of Fame this month.
My Kaizen interview with Snider covers much of his entrepreneurial career and tells a great story of success. In the interview, Snider also talks about the Ed Snider Youth Hockey Foundation, which uses “hockey to help educate underserved young people on how to succeed on the game of life. Training Camp volunteers through after school tutoring sessions and special career day events.”
