Pro Sports Assembly believes professional sports’ next generation of top leaders and problem-solvers greatly benefit from the opportunity to refine and hone their leadership skills while building relationships across the professional disciplines, geographies, and structures from which they come (team, league, union, venue, former player).
PRO offers development opportunities to support members on their journey to become more influential and impactful leaders. Through PRO’s Learning and Development programs, members engage in live learning experiences alongside fellow members.
Organizations benefit by offering programs to complement internal efforts to upskill their leaders who have mastered the fundamentals and are increasingly influential in driving organizational success.
