Shane Battier Speaker Profile: At A Glance
Over his distinguished 13-year NBA career and his heralded collegiate career at Duke University, Shane Battier of the Miami Heat has established himself as a scholar athlete, All-American, leader, champion and philanthropist. Dubbed the “No-Stats All-Star”, Battier is regarded as one of the most complete players in the NBA for his leadership, lockdown defense and intellectual approach to the game. Battier is also known for his exemplary character and his commitment to community service.
Shane Battier is an exceptional retired NBA player who won two world championships and is an integral part of the sports analytics and leadership field. To live such a decorated career, he did incredible things with the Miami Heat, which were an essential part in winning the 2012 and 2013 NBA Championships. Often called the "No-Stats All-Star," a term coined by Michael Lewis because of his defensive wizardry and heady play on the court, Battier's impact cannot be measured through simple statistics.
Off the court, post-playing, Battier has gone on to make an impact. At the Miami Heat, he has been the Vice President for Analytics and Basketball Development, giving the team an informed sense of data and analytics that will best optimize performance and player development. His acumen in using data in making strategy decisions makes him one of the most sought-after business speakers on leadership and analytics down to the dynamics of a team.
Apart from professional success, Battier is one of the most philanthropically committed people. He is a co-founder, with his wife, Heidi, of the Take Charge Foundation, interested in making resources and opportunities for education available to the less fortunate. This spirit of giving back has helped solidify his image as a sports leader and community icon.
