What Does It Take to Be the Best? Winning from the Portfolio to Podium

-

Champions are built on habits, relentless preparation, systems-level thinking, and the ability to perform under pressure. Those same habits are the foundation for building enduring careers and enterprises long after athletic competitions end. This conversation brings together athletes who have translated their disciplines of elite sport into new arenas of business, diplomacy, and leadership. They will share candid reflections on identity and reinvention during and after competition and how the lessons of performance translate far beyond the pool or the field. Together, they'll explore what it means to find your voice, define your own version of success, and keep growing beyond the top step of the podium.
