From “Dare to Prepare” to “The Power of Nice” and throughout his legendary career in sports representation and civic activism and education, our Baltimore Positive guest Ron Shapiro needs no introduction to our local audience.
Many sports fans know Shapiro through his work representing Cal Ripken and many other local athletes and media celebrities but his work in education and teaching leadership and the wisdom of relationships is where his impact has been felt all over the world.
This is the second of three episodes with Shapiro, one that found us discussing the concepts and applications of “The Power of Nice” and how to disagree without being disagreeable.
We’ll get into the Orioles’ pending changing and the future of Baltimore in our final segment (Episode 51) with Shapiro.
And make sure you catch our lengthy chats with Reverend Al Hathaway from Union Baptist Church, who discussed the history of Baltimore and poverty with us at Jennings Cafe in Catonsville.
