Wick Simmons, former CEO of NASDAQ and Chairman of The Tennis Hall of Fame, Newport, Joins The Podcast Hardwick Simmons has been in the financial world for over 45 years. He's played tennis since the age of 8 and the first job he held was rolling courts at his beloved club in Marion, MA. He still plays tennis there at the club and remains active in finance and the business world. Just how did this Wall Street financier combine his work life with his love of tennis and help to bring the ATP to fruition and the WTA major growth? Find out as he joins the BTB Podcast. Wick Simmons, former CEO of NASDAQ and Prudential and Chairman of the Board at the International Tennis Hall of Fame, Newport, RI Wick, as he's better known in the industry, has run or been a part of executive searches for international firms including Prudential, NASDAQ, Shearson Lehman Brothers and American Express where he served as CEO or President, as well as Lionsgate Films and Groton School. But with tennis his first sport and love, he's also one of the leading search consultants in the tennis world and was in charge of the search for Newport's International Tennis Hall of Fame, where he also served as Chairman of the Board. Wick hired Todd Martin and both he and Todd have never looked back. Wick was there at the birth of the ATP Tour with friend and business associate Butch Buchholz. Wick later brought full sponsorship to the "fifth major" while he served as CEO of NASDAQ. Wick was also instrumental in the growth of the WTA, as personal friend Larry Scott asked for advice and support in 2003 when he ascended to CEO at the WTA. Together they added major sponsorship through the relationship with Sony Ericsson. A CEO's Secrets To Finding The Right Candidate In Tennis and Finance In terms of running a search in the tennis world, "it all starts with the quality of the pool of candidates, which is the hardest part," says Wick. "I think the key to any search is to find someone who culturally matches up with what you're representing. That fit is extremely important to start. That first year and a half or two years is what's critical, and if you've made the right fit, it doesn't always work perfectly, but nonetheless both sides find a way to make it work." Reflecting back on his tenure at the International Tennis Hall of Fame, Wick says there was an ulterior motive in hiring Todd Martin in 2014. "The Hall Of Fame really rests on the laurels of the members who are in it. At that time, what we didn't have was the support needed from the current handful of players. What the Hall needed was someone who could reach out to the younger, more current players. Wick has found a similar issue not only at the Hall of Fame, where he stepped down and said he wouldn't remain on the board after several years, but at clubs and major firms at which he has worked across the nation, either as a board member or consultant. "It's so often that clubs or organizations stick with leadership far longer than they should." He discusses how programming can get old, and that boards must look at themselves and re-evaluate the needs of the club and review often the administrative leadership. Hints For Today's Job Seekers "Find something you're really interested in and pay your dues at the start and see what doors open for you." Wick looks back at his career, proud of his work and the legacy he has left at some of Wall Street's major firms. Commenting on the past year, Wick believes Wall Street firms will return to a new normality with office hours back on the cards. Working from home all the time, he believes, creates issues and many have found it more difficult than we are realizing at this time. Harking back to JFK's "Ask not what your country can do for you - ask what you can do for your country," Simmons points to the major difference between when he began his career in the workplace and today's millennials, looking to be hired.

For the past 50 years, the name "Stan Smith" has been seen on nearly every street in the world. Written on nearly 40 million pairs of the iconic Adidas-made sneakers. But perhaps more notable than the shoe is the man himself. Along with Arthur Ashe, Stan Smith is considered the essence of class who ushered in the open era, formed the ATP, and effectively created the tennis world that we know today. He came up under the tutelage of Pancho Segura. Then played for USC. And in 1971 he won the US Open. The following year he won Wimbledon. And the year after that, in an act of solidarity with other players, he boycotted the All England Club. He beat Laver, Nastasi, Connors, Newcomb and Ashe. And Jack Kramer put him in his book as one of the top 21 players of all time. Currently, he leads the tennis academy he cofounded, The Smith Stearns Academy, and is The President of The International Tennis Hall of Fame.

We almost saw a perfect game! Truth be told, it's a little disappointing that we didn't. What's the game moment/achievement you've never witnessed live but you'd most like to? And why would anyone be upset about the Andrew Cashner trade? Midway through Hour 1, Baltimore's own Pam Shriver (ESPN analyst/Tennis Hall of Famer) joined us to discuss the epic Djokovic/Federer final, how it impact's Roger's legacy, Serena's struggles, the Coco Gauff phenomenon and why she thinks Maryland's own Frances Tiafoe can be a major champion. At the top of Hour 2, we discussed NFL owners' silly 18 game proposal then former Independence CC (Kansas) coach Jason Brown joined us to discuss the upcoming Season 4 of "Last Chance U," his new book "Hate Me Now Love Me Later," the idea of "toxic football culture" and charges levied against him. And we wrapped the show by chatting with Boston Cannons rookie midfielder Zach Goodrich (Towson University/Kent Island) about being named to the MLL All-Star Game July 27 in Annapolis.

Newport Rhode Island is known as the sailing capital of the world but it is also home to gorgeous mansions, fun restaurants, and beautiful beaches -- making it a perfect family getaway destination. Today we talk with Helena Bee from That Newport Show to get her inside tips on what to do, where to stay and where to eat in and around Newport, Rhode Island. ON THE PODCAST :034 Tamara talks about her road trip through New York's Adirondacks and Finger Lakes 10:30 About Helena Bee from That Newport Show 15:00 Best time to visit Newport 19:30 Best beaches in Rhode Island 21:35 Top attractions in Newport 30:02 Off-the-beaten path around Newport 32:32 Where to stay in Newport 35:35 Favorite restaurants 37:51 Where to take a family photo 38:45 Helena's favorite travel gear 41:47 Tip of the week: take the Providence-Newport ferry 44:09 Taking a break next week but stay tuned for Priceline tips!   ABOUT HELENA AND BUCK FROM THAT NEWPORT SHOW Buck and Helena from That Newport Show are a couple of old punks who survived what they call “the toddler years” (plus a few extra). As they slowly regain their sanity, they are once again venturing out into the world to get their party on. They may be a bit slower these days, but they are also a lot wiser. And honestly, a lot more fun.   Buck Harris   Buck’s new to the Rhody game, but not even close to new when it comes to having a good time. He’s charming, smart, and handsome. If you’ve got a party going on, Buck’s the guy who will make it fun. But don’t let his good looks and charm fool you. He is wicked smaaht, too. When he isn’t tooling around Newport with his honey, Buck has a serious job as Vice President for an economic development group that finances and supports small businesses in Rhode Island. Buck has two beautiful, horse-addicted daughters of his own. With the benefit of hindsight and a little encouragement from Helena, he is completely redefining what it means to be a grown-up. (Hint: It’s way more fun than it used to be.)   Helena Bee   Born and raised just north of NYC, Helena is a fireball of Italian pride mixed with a good dose of Yankee practicality. Now a full-time Rhode Island resident, Helena’s adventures have mostly been on horseback. Yeah, she’s one of those people. In fact, she co-founded the #1 equestrian network in the world, the Horse Radio Network. As a veteran podcaster, she also hosts HRN’s super popular Stable Scoop Radio Show. When not behind the mic recording shows, Helena tends to her two horses, a 13-year-old whipper snapper of a kid, and everything that farm life demands. NEWPORT TIPS & FAVORITES Newport makes a great long weekend getaway if you are in driving or train distance If coming from further away, plan to stay a week Summer is the main tourist season in Newport, but it is also beautiful in May, June and September In the winter you can see the mansions decorated for Christmas and enjoy skating at the Newport Skating Center Best beaches: First Beach has plenty of amenities for families Second Beach in Middletown Goosewing Beach in Little Compton -- secret beach run by a nature conservancy Top things to do: Sailing charter on the Narragansett Bay Sweet Berry Farm Newport Vineyards Newport Polo Newport Mansions -- The Breakers has a great family tour Tennis Hall of Fame Off-the-beaten path: Jamestown, RI -- Beavertail State Park Bristol, RI - 4th of July Parade Where to stay in Newport with kids: Newport Marriott -- nautical themed, kid-friendly, great location on the water Hotel Viking -- historic hotel right in the downtown area with a great spa Atlantic Beach Hotel -- right across from Second Beach with suites Where to eat in Newport: Clarke Cooke House The Red Parrot The Black Pearl Midtown Oyster Bar BEST PLACE TO TAKE FAMILY PHOTO  Helena recommends taking a photo on the Cliff Walk, where you can see the Mansions and the Atlantic Ocean. Tamara also recommends the lawn at Castle Hill Inn. FAVORITE TRAVEL GEAR Helena always bring a pair of flip flops in Newport, in case you have to walk a bit in high heels on the cobblestones. She also like clogs from Swedish Hasbeens. Also, when coming to Newport always bring a sweater or light jacket, a hat and sunglasses because the weather changes and it can get really breezy. TIP OF THE WEEK If you take the train from New York or Boston to Providence, you can now take a ferry from Providence to Newport -- making it is a car-less vacation and avoiding all the traffic.
