2. My name is Channing Spears, and I grew up in Dallas, Texas and
currently live in New York City.
Growing up, I fell in love with competitive cheerleading which
ultimately showed me that if you work hard for the things you want,
your hard work will pay off. Cheerleading has many aspects, but
what sets you apart in the industry is your attention to detail. Every
team I competed against was doing pretty much the same thing we
were, but who paid closer attention to the details? Other valuable
skills I’ve carried with me is how to be a leader and how to work as a
team, because life is hardly ever a one man show. Being able to
connect with others and motivate them to work together to
accomplish something you couldn’t do alone is incredibly
empowering. In my final years of cheerleading, me and my team
were invited to the world’s competition held at ESPN Wide Worlds of
Sports Complex in Orlando, Florida. We ended up winning 3 rings
out of the 4 times we competed. These memories drive me every
day to achieve the goals I’ve set for myself. I am passionate about
encouraging myself and others to be our most authentic selves and
to aggressively chase after the thing you want. I take pride in my
student mentality because there is always more to be learned no
matter what stage in life we are.

Methodology:
Forbes valued more than 200 global brands by looking at three years of earnings and allocating a percentage of those earnings based on the role brands play in each industry (e.g., high for luxury goods and beverages, low for airlines and oil companies). We applied the average price-to-earnings multiple over the past three years to these earnings to arrive at the final brand value.
