October 21, 2025

The latest episode of The Elevator Pitch features a deep dive between Hugh Williams and Kareem Edwards on what operational excellence really looks like. Edwards explains why he pushed to serve the South Loop community that welcomed him in 2009, how he hires from nearby neighborhoods and universities, and how he leads through uncertain moments with clear protocols and care for his team.

From coaching leaders on Mondays to jumping on fries when needed, he treats consistency and service as competitive advantages. The conversation lands on values that guide his decisions integrity, grit, and community and on what comes next expanding in Chicago while making every soccer game. It is leadership, grounded and local, built one shift at a time.
