Paul Epstein
Former NFL and NBA Executive, bestselling author of "The Power of Playing Offense", and Founder of Purpose Labs
Playing Offense as a Leader

Episode Summary
I had a fascinating conversation about “The Power of Playing Offense” with Paul Epstein, a former NFL, and NBA executive. Listen to this episode to understand how lessons from the world of professional sports apply equally to the front office and other aspects of organizations and business.

Bio
Paul Epstein is an expert in leadership and organizational culture with nearly fifteen years of experience as a professional sports executive for multiple NFL and NBA teams, a global sports agency, and the NFL league office—leading and coaching business teams, most recently with the San Francisco 49ers. It was there that Paul had a life-changing transformation—he found his ‘Why’—to inspire purpose in others so they can play offense in life. A calling he has followed ever since.

As Founder of Purpose Labs, Paul is on a mission to impact millions of lives by sharing his message of Playing Offense as an author, keynote speaker, business coach, and leadership trainer. He has installed the Playing Offense playbook with professional sports organizations, Fortune 500 leadership teams, Chief People Officers, MBAs, and professional athletes—all to live and lead with greater purpose, performance, and impact.

Paul received his MBA from the University of Michigan, following his undergraduate degree at USC. He resides in Pasadena, CA, with his wife, two Labradoodles, and their future leader, PJ.
