What is the Leaders Club?
Sports Business Journal and Leaders in Sport launched the Leaders Club after many years of being approached to do more to develop future industry leaders.
Leaders Club is the home for the future leaders in the sports industry. Members accelerate their careers and drive business results by developing career-critical relationships, knowledge, and skills through accredited private workshops and events, curated networking experiences, and exclusive access to insights from experts inside and outside of sport.
We approve membership to the Leaders Club every 3 months. You can find out more about who the Leaders Club is for and get in touch here.
