Usually what happens at a company all-hands, stays at a company all-hands. But sometimes there's great stuff that seems too good to keep under wraps.

Take Mitch Spolan, for example. We have a phrase around here that describes someone who's loyal to the core -- they "bleed purple." That's Mitch in a nutshell. He's a 10-year Yahoo! veteran who's seen it all -- the good, the bad, the ugly, and the awesome. And he's embodied the definition of pride throughout. And in this presentation, Mitch gave abut 13,000 people a bevy of reasons to share that pride.

You have to forget for a moment that he's a sales guy (he was just promoted to head of our North American field sales organization) because what you're about to watch isn't some guy just trying to cut a deal. This video helps you understand what it means to bleed purple.

And you'll also learn a thing or two about measuring social impact by a factor of Obamas.
