“Doing the right thing is inconvenient.” That was a powerful quote from this week’s guest Bob Beaudine. Prioritizing your family over your career or business is one of the hardest things to do for high achievers. It is possible to do it successfully but it doesn’t come easy. You have to make hard choices that are not convenient.
Bob had one of the top executive search firms for professional sports. In fact, he basically created the niche when no one was doing it. As a result, he’s placed in some of the positions in professional sports like Bud Selig, former commissioner of MLB, as well as head coaches, and presidents of NFL, NBA, and NHL teams.
You can probably understand why Sports Illustrated nominated him as “The most influential man in sports you’ve never heard of.” His work helped transform leagues and teams with the people he placed in them.
Listen to this week’s episode as Bob shares how he was able to balance marriage, family, and the busy life he led in professional sports.
