2020-2021 Letter from the Chief Executive Officer Dear Leadership Jacksonville Alumni and Friends: The design of this yearbook cover was conceived in the early spring, when in-person programs, meetings and events were the norm. Today as I look at our design I am reminded of the many Zoom screens that continue to bring us together, but in a virtual format. During this time of physical distancing Leadership Jacksonville’s mission to educate, connect and inspire diverse leaders to build and strengthen their communities has continued but program delivery has been very creative. The board, planning teams and staff have looked at everything we do in a new light. How can we be true to our mission, produce quality programming, and operate within our current reality? Jill Langford Dame Chief Executive Officer Our alumni and friends have been incredible. The 52 photos on the cover represent alumni from our LJ 1987 flagship, youth, young professional and new leadership programs as well as honorary alumni. They represent those who have stepped up with creativity, volunteer and financial support – this year and every year. Our alumni have demonstrated their leadership at the very time that Leadership Jacksonville has needed it most. We will continue to need you as the impact of the pandemic continues. Leadership Jacksonville is flexible about how we do things but we remain true to why we do our work. Our community needs educated, connected and inspired leaders - thank you for making that possible.

    10 Side Businesses You Didn't Know WWE Wrestlers Owned WWE

    10 Side Businesses You Didn’t Know WWE Wrestlers Owned WWE Wrestlers make a lot of money each year, and some still do side jobs. Some use their strength and muscle to moonlight as bodyguards, like Sheamus and Brodus Clay, who has been a bodyguard for Snoop Dogg. And Paul Bearer was a funeral director in his spare time and went back to it full time after he retired until his death in 2012. And some of the previous jobs WWE Wrestlers have had are a little different as well; Steve Austin worked at a dock before he became a wrestler. Orlando Jordan worked for the U.S. Forest Service for the group that helps put out forest fires. The WWE’s Maven was a sixth- grade teacher before wrestling. Rico was a one of the American Gladiators before becoming a wrestler, for those who don’t know what the was, it was TV show on in the 90’s. That had strong men and woman go up against contestants; they had events that they had to complete to win prizes. Another profession that many WWE Wrestlers did before where a wrestler is a professional athlete. Kurt Angle competed at the 1996 Summer Olympics in freestyle wrestling and won a gold metal. Mark Henry also competed in that Olympics in weightlifting. Goldberg played for three years with the Atlanta Falcons. Junk Yard Dog and Lex Luger both played for the Green Bay Packers. Believe it or not but Macho Man Randy Savage played in the minor league Cincinnati Reds before he was telling the world “Oh Yeah.” Just like most famous people they had day jobs before they because professional wrestlers.
