In this episode we discuss The DP World Tour's innovations, experiments and initiatives such as:
• Golf Sixes: A two day, six hole tournament format with two player teams representing twelve countries. #GolfSixes @golfsixes http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/season=2017/tournamentid=2017036/news/newsid=326672.html
• The strategies which The DP World Tour as an organization and Keith as a leader are implementing to engage and inspire staff members in order to build an entrepreneurial culture.
• The Rolex Series, which Keith considers to be "One of the most initiatives in The European/DP World Tour's 45-year history". Not only do these eight tournaments have a minimum $7mil USD prize purse to attract the world's top players, but they will be innovating by providing "significantly enhanced, high-end content", "significantly increased production budgets for both broadcast and digital content creation and distribution", along with "enhanced on-site interactive engagement and experiences for both players and fans". Simply put, " All resources for each Rolex Series tournament will be magnified". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpjWYwS_fvc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-2d5zc-uSbY and http://www.europeantour.com/europeantour/rolexseries/index.html
