  • The First Question Any Social Enterprise Should Be Asking
    JERR’S JOURNAL July 17, 2014 The first question any social enterprise should be asking . I once spent three days working with The Shreveport-Bossier Rescue Mission, a safe haven for indigent men who needed a place to stay and nourishing food for up to seven days. The CEO asked me to meet with his entire Board and staff, help them understand social enterprise, and then facilitate a closing discussion about the shelter’s strategic direction. The first question I asked during the discussion came right from Peter Drucker’s playbook. In his seminal work The Practice of Management , he wrote that because the question “is so rarely asked – at least in a clear and sharp form -- and (is) so rarely given adequate study and thought, (it) is perhaps the most important single cause of business failure.” The question? “What business are you in?” Shouldn’t be that hard to answer, should it? Well . * * * * * Does anybody here remember Jack McKinney? During the summer of 1979, the Los Angeles Lakers hired an obscure, 44-year-old assistant coach from Portland to coach a team that featured Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, the five-time NBA MVP, and a rookie point guard named Magic Johnson. Now, I grew up worshipping the (then) Minneapolis Lakers, even played in an abbreviated grade school game against one of our hated enemies during halftime of a Lakers game at the Minneapolis Auditorium. Those were the George Mikan, Jim Pollard, Vern Mikkelsen Lakers -- the original Big Three -- who won five NBA titles in six seasons from 1949 through 1954.

Order a reprint of this article now SPORTS APRIL 21, 2009 Why the Lakers Own Los Angeles How Magic Johnson, Courtside Seats, Studio Lots, Free Tacos and 'The White Shadow' Built a Sports Empire By HANNAH KARP Say what you will about the Dodgers or the USC football team, but when it comes to sports, Los Angeles is a one-team town. And that team is undeniably the Lakers. Tickets for the team, which cost an average of $93.25, are the most expensive in the NBA, and the season-ticket renewal rate hovers close to 98%. This season, according to the Nielsen Co., some 267,000 Los Angeles households tuned in to the average Lakers game, 67% more than the Dodgers on KCAL in 2008 and nearly three times the local audience for college football. As the playoffs heat up, celebrities ranging from Denzel Washington to Leonardo DiCaprio will fill the courtside seats at the Staples Center, and Lakers merchandise will continue to outsell that of any other NBA team. According to one Los Angeles insurance company, at least 350 pets in the city have been named after Lakers star Kobe Bryant. The unquestioned primacy of the Lakers in Los Angeles seems rooted in a chain of events that began in 1979, when Earvin "Magic" Johnson arrived and Jerry Buss bought the team.
