Buffy Filippell TeamWork Online Founder & Sports Employment Pioneer Celebrated By Andy Dolich

Buffy Filippell TeamWork Online Founder & Sports Employment Pioneer Celebrated By Andy Dolich If you have ever wondered who started sports employment online, you need to meet Buffy Filippell. Buffy Filippell created TeamWork Online, a first-of-its-kind, web-based talent recruiting system focused on connecting candidates and employers in sports and live events. In 2016, TeamWork Online celebrated the remarkable achievement of 100,000th successful candidate and employers’ matches. She was the first female agent at IMG, and, was one of the first recruiters to focus on sports while at the worldwide search firm Korn/Ferry. These firsts have created a legacy that reaches across nearly every professional sport, multiple collegiate programs and the leading live event producers in the world. But I had the pleasure of getting Buffy Filippell's help very early on and way before 2016. She was always available on AOL (those were the days) and was more than sensitive to the problems faced by this person of color. Always encouraging. Always positive. If it can be said that relationships are the best currency, then Buffy Filippell is the best example of why that is true. She's managed to gain the praises of many sports executives, one of them my friend, legendary sports executive Andy Dolich, who Mr. Dolich was COO of the San Francisco 49ers. Dolich played a major role in the team’s improvements at Candlestick Park and the planning of a new state-of-the-art stadium in the Silicon Valley. Prior to joining the 49ers, Dolich served as President of Business Operations for the Memphis Grizzlies and played a major role in planning and building the FedExForum. Mr. Dolich led the marketing and business resurgence of the Oakland Athletics in the 1980’s and early 90’s. In three of his fourteen years with the A’s, he served as the Executive Vice President of the team. And Mr. Dolich also served as President of the Golden State Warriors in the mid-1990’s. It is my pleasure to welcome Buffy to Zennie62Media and Zennie62 YouTube Live for this exciting event led by Andy, and moderated by me.
