First, Ts2803, thank you for using the talk page and {{request edit}}, and for presenting your requests in such a clear way; that is a big help. I've taken the liberty of numbering the items to make it easier to refer to them. There's a lot of stuff here, and I can't look at all of it right away (though someone else may do so), but I'll add the first and last items on your list, 1 and 12, at once.
Some of the sources you propose may not meet our rather strict requirements for reliability, which you can read about here; the teamusa source, in particular, which looks and reads like a press handout and is from a source apparently connected with Schiller, is unlikely to be acceptable. Is there a chance you could find better sources - reports in national newspapers or in mainstream magazines (Forbes, Business Week), for example?
Some of what you ask to have added is already in the article, such as it is - numbers 6 and 7, and parts of 9 and 10, are already covered. Justlettersandnumbers ([[User

Thank you justlettersandnumbers thank you for the guidance and edits. as you advised I have provided reliable sources, including from magazines you mentioned, Forbes, Buisness Week, etc. Sports Business Daily, also a source, is the leading trade publication. Please see below


1. U.S. Air Force Brigadier General

3. Please add that Schiller is currently Vice Chair of Diversified Search Odgers Berndtson
