RADNOR, Pennsylvania — Admired Leadership® and PGA TOUR player and Ryder Cup Captain Steve Stricker announced a three-year sponsorship agreement in which the golfer will be the PGA brand ambassador for Admired Leadership and its recently launched online leadership course. It will be the first sponsorship agreement in the company’s history.
Admired Leadership is a premier executive advisory firm that has offered leadership advisory and consulting services to corporate clients for more than 30 years. Stricker is the first brand sponsor in the history of the firm.
“In addition to winning championships, I am driven to be the best leader, husband, father and friend I can be,” said Stricker. “Admired Leadership, through its online course, has shown me how to improve myself and become the leader I want to be in all aspects of my life. I couldn’t be more excited to be sponsored by a premier executive advisory and consulting firm like Admired Leadership. I am grateful for the confidence the firm has placed in me to represent the Admired Leadership brand.”
Stricker will serve as the U.S. Ryder Cup Captain for the 2021 Match at Whistling Straits in his home state of Wisconsin after an illustrious career. With 12 PGA TOUR wins and five PGA TOUR Champions wins, Stricker spent over 250 weeks in the top 10 of the official World Golf Rankings, reaching a No. 2 ranking in 2009.
He continues to be a competitive force, playing on both the PGA TOUR and PGA TOUR Champions.
“We wanted to find a player who exemplified quality in all aspects of his life,” said Scott Baker, Chief Marketing Director for Admired Leadership. “Placing the Admired Leadership logo on an athlete’s uniform is no small matter and we wanted to create a partnership with an athlete as extraordinary as the leaders we study and attempt to emulate. We believe Steve will be a spectacular spokesperson for our firm and the digital course we are now introducing to a larger audience.”
