Game Plan B : Negotiating the Journey from Injury to Managing Partner with Andres Lares
On this episode of Alumni Direct’s show, "ATHLETES TO ENTREPRENEURS: The Alumni Journey," Rob Finkelstein chats with Andres Lares about the often-overlooked challenges athletes face when stepping off the field and into the professional world.
Andres opens up about his own journey from a promising athlete to a successful career leading to executive business leadership, sharing the ups and downs and lessons he learned along the way. They talk about why it’s so important for athletes to have a plan B, the power of starting your network early, and how the discipline and teamwork you build in sports can set you up for success in the business world.
Top Takeaways:
It’s Never Too Early to Think Ahead: Start building your network and preparing for life after sports while you’re still in the game.
Teamwork Goes Beyond the Field: The skills you’ve gained from sports—discipline, teamwork, and resilience—are priceless in any career.
Genuine Relationships Matter: Networking isn’t about collecting contacts; it’s about building real, meaningful connections.
You’re More Than Your Sport: Your identity is so much more than what you do on the field.
Why Listen:
If you’ve ever wondered how to take the skills you’ve mastered in one part of your life and apply them to something entirely new, this episode is for you. It’s a conversation about growth, community, and learning to see every challenge as an opportunity.
