Al Davis, the late owner of the Oakland Raiders, had a long history of shepherding trailblazers, from George Blanda and John Madden, to Tom Flores and Art Shell.Count Amy Trask in that category, too. Trask joined the Raiders as an intern in 1983 after cold calling the teams telephone switchboard and offering to work for free. The gutsy move eventually led to a full-time gig and started Trask on a path that culminated in her becoming the Raiders CEO in 1997.Trask earned the nickname The Princess of Darkness in part due to her commitment to the Raiders. And as we discussed some of the stories she shares in her new book, You Negotiate Like a Girl: Reflections on a Career in the National Football League, it became clear that much of her loyalty to the organization stems from the dynamics of working for Davis.Respecting ones convictions, even under difficult circumstancesTrask cites Davis display of a strong moral compass in the 1960s when he took a stand against segregation.She indicates that this respect for ones convictions even extended to times when she and Davis would disagree. Second chances: When they should be given ...She also has an affinity for the way Davis would give people second chances.Yet Trask does not think that getting a second chance should be an automatic benefit.... And when they should notOne of the instances where Trask does not believe a second chance was warranted was in Michael Vicks return to the league. This issue directly impacted her because, as Trask details in her book, Davis called and asked her opinion as to whether they should sign Vick to a contract. Her opposition to this was rock solid and based on a detailed look at Vicks indictment.Trask says that Davis reaction to her opposition was something she will always remember.If you dont want people to think about your gender, dont think about your genderTrask offers an interesting perspective on how to deal with potential gender resistance in the workplace.Yet she makes sure to point out that this is not a one-size-fits-all approach.Inclusive hiring practicesWhen asked if nonsports businesses should aim to use the Rooney Rule and the Al Davis approach to minority hiring practices as a blueprint to help increase diversity in their organizations, Trask makes it clear that businesses should look past the benefits of compliance and instead see the value of a more inclusive hiring model.Her future in the leagueTrask left the Raiders organization in 2013. When asked if she wants to get back into the NFL, Trask says opportunities have been offered, but not accepted.A new adventureTrask is now in her fourth season as an NFL analyst for CBS Sports Network. But she says during the transition to the media side of football, she received some much needed help from a former New York Jets/Baltimore Ravens linebacker who made the phrase Cant wait a recurring social media meme.
