When someone enters my company's El Paso, Texas, headquarters, they're certain to see a bright-red pair of Nike Air Jordan 11 shoes. I have them displayed in my office. And if they look closely, they'll notice the shoes are signed. "Is that Michael Jordan's signature?" they'll ask.
The answer is no. Those shoes are signed by somebody even more inspirational to me, even though he doesn't have a pair of shoes with his name. The signature is from Brad Smith, the president ofMicrosoft.
