NEW YORK, Dec. 6, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Alex Rodriguez has had one of the most impressive sports careers of all time—but his hard-earned success did not come without challenges. We are excited and honored to share that he will be joining us at SSOW 2023 in Orlando for a moderated discussion that pulls no punches. Mr. Rodriguez will take audiences through his journey—the rise, fall, and continuous path of resilience and hard work which has helped him to rebuild his role as a team leader and asset to his sport and community. Beyond his retirement from playing as a Yankee, he continues to be a crucial part of the organization as a senior adviser to Hal Steinbrenner of the New York Yankees. Mr. Rodriguez shares anecdotes about the triumphs and troubles that come with balancing sports and celebrity, and he discusses how nothing is more instrumental to success than being a true student of your craft. Join us at the Big Ideas Stage on March 23rd to hear how Alex Rodriguez has overcome multiple challenges and shares his "mindset of a champion" philosophy, and how it applies to success both on and off the field.
