  6th Annual Conference

  Increasing evidence shows that playing sports can transfer into your professional

  career, helping you become a better and more influential leader.

  Playing sports is often considered a male thing, but the expectation that sports can

  help your career holds for women, as well as men. In a 2014 report of women

  executives by Ernst & Young (EY), Women Athletes Business Network and espnW,

  74% indicated a background in sport can help accelerate a woman’s career. 

  In another report, they found an overwhelming correlation between athletic and

  business success -- 94% of women in the C-suite played sports and 80% of female 

  Fortune executives played competitive sports.

  Against the backdrop of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, this year’s conference will

  address the character traits and attributes that are common among great athletes

  and business leaders.  The speakers will highlight leadership qualities that are

  both effective on and off the field, and share skills learned in athletics that

  have a direct workplace crossover.
