In 2003, the NFL introduced a landmark diversity policy requiring American football teams to interview ethnic minority candidates for positions as head coaches or general managers. Known as the “Rooney Rule”, the policy was the result of organised pressure from black coaches and former players, led by former NFL champion, John Wooten. Initially seen as a success, the Rooney Rule has been influential not just in sport, but in the corporate world. John Wooten talks to Farhana Haider.

Join host Leroy Barber and Producer Andru Morgan as they hit Facebook Live to talk the NFL's Rooney Rule. This discussion was stimulated when Dallas sports anchor Dale Hansen called out the NFL for quickly filling the majority of its head coaching positions with under qualified white candidates. This raised a lot of questions for Leroy and the SITUP Podcast crew that they explore on this episode. Adopted in 2003, the Rooney Rule is an NFL policy requiring every team with a head coaching vacancy to interview at least one or more diverse candidates. In 2009, the Rooney Rule was expanded to include general manager jobs and equivalent front office positions. The Rooney Rule is named after the late former Pittsburgh Steelers owner and chairman of the league's diversity committee, Dan Rooney. As of December of 2018 the enhancements to strengthen the Rooney Rule include: 1. Clubs must interview at least one diverse candidate from the Career Development Advisory Panel list or a diverse candidate not currently employed by the club; 2. Clubs must continue best practice recommendation of considering multiple diverse candidates; 3. Clubs must maintain complete records and furnish to the league upon Commissioner's request; and 4. If final decision-maker is involved in the beginning, he/she must be involved through the conclusion of the process.
