OTA LEADERSHIP INDEX

Jett Howard

ARCHETYPE

The Navigator

Judgement in the fog, money, risk and the call others cannot make.

Jett Howard fits The Navigator because his course has been steered from within. Carving an identity apart from his father Juwan Howard's towering legacy, he weighed Tennessee against Michigan and family expectation against personal ambition with clear-eyed pragmatism, absorbing his father's blunt exit-meeting challenge and still choosing his own path. His habit of converting external doubt into internal fuel marks a leader who plots by his own bearings, not the surrounding noise.

IN THEIR WORDS, WHY NAVIGATOR

I just feel like sometimes you just get invited to let's say, like all American camp, they probably just gonna be in the back of their head, like you just here because your dad. So it just adds more fuel to you.

ON NAVIGATING LEGACY PRESSURE

I had to sit back and be like, man, we ain't got no Chris Webber or no J Rose. So I'm just I got to make the best out of it.

DEFINING HIS OWN PATH

He was just like, you know, tell me like what you want to do. I'm not about to sit here and tell you what you should do. You had to tell me what you want to do.
