Synopsis: Lead Change
(USA)
07:35 mins
Featuring Dale Johnson
Directed, Filmed, and Edited: by Michael Crocker

How do we inspire? How do we open doors? How do we lead change?
Playing Polo, building a relationship with its amazing community, and sharing my journey with my friend and teammate Sunny has been nothing short than a blessing. It has tested all of my abilities but undoubtedly it has been one of the most impactful journeys in my life.
On a trip to Buenos Aires just over three years ago, 32-year-old Dale Johnson casually spotted a pair of polo boots on display in a store. “Those shoes are badass, I gotta get into that,” he thought, and months later he joined a clinic. Now, at age 35, Dale is a nationally competitive polo player who, along with his horse, Sunny, is taking the sport by storm.
If you’re wondering the kind of person who can become a powerhouse polo player seemingly on a whim (on top of his day job), that person is Dale. “I’m not trying to be virtuous, maybe I’m just a nerd,” he says of his highly disciplined habits — habits that include waking up at dawn, drinking tons of black coffee, working out, doing daily affirmations, reading books by Roman stoics, and going to bed by 10 p.m.
