“Boom, Baby!” Can’t wait for my colleagues around the world to hear our @SASsoftware Company Kickoff Keynote from @Gillum66, Head Coach of @TheSavBananas! 🚀🍌

Coach K shared a handwritten practice plan. It told us about more than basketball nytimes.com/athletic/70759…

Another unforgettable week at the @attproam, helping host 150+ customers, partners, & friends! Huge thanks to the Monterey Bay Peninsula Foundation and @pbresorts1919 for delivering truly world-class hospitality to our @SASsoftware guests. ⛳️🌊🏌️‍♂️

@nxthompson Craig was a former All-American runner for @WakeTrack, too! Go @DemonDeacons!

I love this: former Wake Forest walk-on builds track in old warehouse, engineers it to be fast, and then Cole Hocker sets the American record there. letsrun.com/news/2026/02/f…

Primed for a big Friday!

Bestselling author, Mel Robbins, explains the simplest leadership principle: "Leaders bring the weather. Your energy is the weather at your company."

See you soon! 👇

@coinbase @SphereVegas This was a creative risk. It worked. Well done!

Singing > watching. So we got millions of people watching the Big Game to sing along with us. Oh, and we put it on the world's largest LED screen @SphereVegas.

DID YOU KNOW? "One Shining Moment" was originally written for the Super Bowl. First line was, "The ball is kicked." But the trophy ceremony ran long so they killed it. The composer David Barrett was crushed, but then CBS asked him to rework it for the NCAA Tournament. "The ball is tipped...." You never know when your setbacks will turn into setups for something great. Believe!

Love to see @DemonDeacons up to #8 after a great fall sports season. This award recognizes schools with the most success in collegiate athletics. #GoDeacs 🎩

We’ve got @Gillum66, Head Coach of Banana Ball, pulling up for SAS Company Kickoff next week! 🚀⚾️🍌

Best ever to play at Wake.

A simple rule for life that rarely fails: Optimize for enthusiasm. Make as many choices as you can that leave you feeling energetic and interested. Pay attention to when you have the urge to pursue or participate in something and do more of it.

I think about decisions in three ways: hats, haircuts, and tattoos. Most decisions are like hats. Try one and if you don’t like it, put it back and try another. The cost of a mistake is low, so move quickly and try a bunch of hats. Some decisions are like haircuts. You can fix a bad one, but it won’t be quick and you might feel foolish for a while. That said, don't be scared of a bad haircut. Trying something new is usually a risk worth taking. If it doesn't work out, by this time next year you will have moved on and so will everyone else. A few decisions are like tattoos. Once you make them, you have to live with them. Some mistakes are irreversible. Maybe you'll move on for a moment, but then you'll glance in the mirror and be reminded of that choice all over again. Even years later, the decision leaves a mark. When you're dealing with an irreversible choice, move slowly and think carefully.

A great day to be a Demon Deacon! 🎩⚽️

@kirsten Congrats and have fun in The Sphere!

Our big day is finally here! Can't wait to see the work of countless teams and partners come to fruition today at Sphere for #LenovoTechWorld!
