Kevin White, Inside the Gates | Episode No. 529

Inside the Gates is an independent private golf advisory firm and industry intelligence platform founded by Kevin White. It focuses on the business side of private clubs, particularly governance, ownership, acquisitions, membership economics, and strategic decision-making.

On this episode of The Wednesday Match Play Podcast, powered by Heritage Creations USA, Kevin gives us an overview of Inside the Gates and shares where the idea came from. He reflects on his time at T-Mobile, Microsoft, and Dropbox, as well as his experience serving on the boards of several private clubs and what it's like to sit at the boardroom table.

He discusses the KPIs GMs should be reporting, dives into the Club Health Index, and shares his thoughts on acquisitions and mergers. Kevin also emphasizes the importance of treating your members like ambassadors for the club.

This was an enlightening conversation and an honor to have Kevin on the show. Let's tee off!
