About John Rodriguez
Business Intelligence Director specializing in strategic analytics, data & software evaluation and management, reporting, operational efficiency, and sports sponsorship best practices. Currently I am a Director in the Business Intelligence Department of the Cleveland Cavaliers. I work on a daily basis with the Corporate Partnerships team, assisting Senior Leadership, Development, Partnership Marketing, and Activation departments. I also collaborate cross functionally with the Accounting/Finance, Legal, Digital, and Marketing areas of the business. I help direct a team of two BI analysts within the Retail & Digital & Marketing areas as well.Sponsorship business intelligence at the Cavaliers includes optimizing the inputs, outputs, and evaluation of the business on a daily basis. This includes use of Salesforce CRM, KORE Software Sponsorship Module, Microsoft 365, SQL, Tableau, SeatGeek and other data tools. I enjoy immersing myself in the ins and outs of the business to better understand how processes, analysis, software, or other tools can help improve the operations and decision making of the business. My main areas of focus over time have included managing of Inventory assets, billing and revenue records, customer data, and leveraging 3rd party software such as Nielsen, YouGov, and ZoomInfo. Currently, I now daily think about how to improve our partnerships product, strategizing and focusing on long term initiatives.In my 6+ years, our sponsorship analytics team has been consistently recognized for best practices in the NBA, amongst peers such as KORE Software, and have consulted with over 20+ professional sports teams on sponsorship. Outside of my role with the Cavaliers, I am an avid runner and lifelong learner who is a book and podcast enthusiast on the topics of technology, finance, and investing. I have served on a non-profit board and was involved with my local Cornell alumni club for 3+ years. I also contribute to the Colossus podcast network as a Pioneer and write local coffee reviews (@cle_coffee_tour). I have been endlessly curious and fascinated in the idea of leadership. I recently completed the Cleveland Leadership Center program Bridge Builders. In the last year, I also started a new podcast, Leaders, where I study the best leaders this world has ever seen and their leadership styles. I have now produced 45 episodes with no end in sight.My own personal website is found at johnprodriguez.com including all of my work to date.
