Episode 5: Digital Brand Manager The Black Ladder Podcast

Today’s guest is Steven Apampa. Steven is a Digital Brand Manager at Nike where he plays a role in providing consumers with the best digital experiences. He primarily manages Nike’s digital content on Foot Locker’s channels.

Prior to starting with Nike, Steven completed a Football Industries MBA before having a week to pack up and move to Amsterdam, as the Nike Headquarters are in Holland.

He loves football and his favourite colour is red so if you put 2 and 2 together, that would make his football team - Manchester United.

On this weeks episode; we talk about racism in football, doing what interests you, marketing yourself, keeping your passion alive in your career and Lebron James.

I also learn that I’ve been saying “Nike” wrong for years, so stay tuned to find out what the right way is…
