A dominant force in fashion, Edelman has made an indelible impact on some of the most renowned footwear brands over the past 45 years, launching the footwear division for Ralph Lauren and Esprit, holding an executive role at Candie's, and co-founding Kenneth Cole. His eponymous fashion lifestyle brands – Sam & Libby, Sam Edelman, and Circus NY by Sam Edelman – reflect Edelman's unique ability to understand customers' dynamic lifestyles.

作爲時尚界的主導力量,愛德曼在過去的45年中對一些最知名的鞋類品牌產生了不可磨滅的影響,爲拉爾夫·勞倫和Esprit成立了鞋類部門,在Candie's擔任行政職務,並共同創立了肯尼思·科爾。他的同名時尚生活品牌——Sam & Libby、Sam Edelman和山姆·愛德曼的Circus NY——反映了愛德曼理解客戶動態生活方式的獨特能力。

Edelman told the graduates, "It is OK to be afraid. You are going to be afraid as you go out into the world. If you are not afraid, the job is not challenging enough. If you are not afraid, you won't go anywhere; you won't learn. Fear is OK, just work through it. You'll get really good at what you are doing and you'll be amazed that you were nervous and scared in the beginning. You'll learn, and soon answers will become second nature."

愛德曼告訴畢業生:“害怕是可以的。當你走出這個世界時,你會感到害怕。如果你不害怕,這份工作還不夠具有挑戰性。如果你不害怕,你就不會去任何地方;你不會學習。恐懼是可以的,只要努力解決即可。你會非常擅長自己正在做的事情,你會驚訝地發現自己一開始很緊張和害怕。你會學習,很快答案就會變成第二本能。”

Stressing the importance of having mentors, Edelman advised the graduates that, "You can have a dream and you can have an idea, but you cannot know what to do with it or how to develop it without mentors."

愛德曼強調了擁有導師的重要性,並建議畢業生:“你可以有夢想,也可以有想法,但是沒有導師你就不知道該怎麼做,或者如何發展夢想。”

He related a lesson learned from one mentor during his career. "I learned that fashion without marketing is not fashion. There has to be a story. The graphic arts are sometimes as important as the making of a garment. Talking to your consumers and understanding your consumers is everything."

他講述了他在職業生涯中從一位導師那裏吸取的教訓。“我了解到,沒有營銷的時尚就不是時尚。必須有故事。平面藝術有時與服裝製作一樣重要。與消費者交談並了解您的消費者就是一切。”

Edelman closed his remarks by encouraging graduates to take a chance. He recounted how he and his wife Libby, after many years of tremendous success, decided to put everything on the line to start Sam & Libby. "We took a complete and total chance and knew that if we failed life would be very different. In the end, Sam & Libby became a crazy American success story. After today, you will take a lot of chances, and I hope they will lead you to success. I know where success comes from. It doesn't come from making money. It comes from family, love, health, feeling good about your decisions and finding something that makes you really, really happy."

愛德曼最後鼓勵畢業生抓住機會。他講述了自己和妻子利比在多年的巨大成功之後是如何決定不遺餘力地創辦Sam & Libby的。“我們抓住了一次完全的機會,知道如果我們失敗了,生活將大不相同。最終,Sam & Libby 成爲了一個瘋狂的美國成功故事。今天之後,你會抓住很多機會,我希望它們能帶領你走向成功。我知道成功來自哪裏。它不是來自賺錢。它來自家庭、愛情、健康、對自己的決定感覺良好,以及找到能讓你真正快樂的東西。”

In his address to the Class of 2024, LIM College President Ron Marshall quoted career advice given by former U.S. President Barack Obama. "I agree with President Obama when he said that it is important to be someone who 'gets stuff done' if you want a successful career. As a CEO, I always noticed the people who got things done, especially those who stretched out of their comfort zones to take on things they may not have felt ready to handle. These are the people who other successful people want to work with."

在他對2024屆全班的講話中 LIM 學院院長羅恩·馬歇爾 引用了美國前總統巴拉克·奧巴馬的職業建議。“我同意奧巴馬總統的觀點,他說,如果你想擁有一個成功的職業生涯,成爲一個'把事情做完'的人很重要。作爲首席執行官,我經常注意到那些把事情做好的人,尤其是那些伸出自己的舒適區去做自己可能還沒準備好處理的事情的人。這些是其他成功人士想要與之合作的人。”

Marshall also advised the graduates that in addition to the hard skills and functional capabilities they learned at LIM, it is equally important to perfect soft skills, saying, "You are eminently qualified for the jobs that await you based on your LIM education. Yet, you also need a set of soft skills that allow you to get results. You can spend your entire career perfecting these skills, which include a state of mind; an attitude that you carry within yourself and project to others. Most important, never, ever give up. Sometimes the solution is to just work harder."

馬歇爾還告訴畢業生,除了他們在LIM學到的硬技能和功能能力外,完善軟技能同樣重要,他說:“根據你的LIM教育,你非常有資格勝任等待你的工作。但是,你還需要一套軟技能來取得成果。你可以花整個職業生涯來完善這些技能,包括一種心態;一種你內在的態度以及向他人投射的態度。最重要的是,永遠不要放棄。有時解決方案就是更加努力地工作。”
