Glenn Horine has over 23 years of experience in the sports industry, has worked with NFL properties, Time Warner Sports Merchandising, the NHL, Velocity Sports and Entertainment, the Arena Football League as President of AFL Properties, and created the Center of Sports and Entertainment Studies at Iona College’s Hagan School of Business. Horine has a lot to say about the sports industry, new employees paying their dues, and developing a master plan on how to guide their career further. Twitter: @GlennHorine
Career developing in college athletics is the cornerstop of NextLevel Sports. Senior Vice President Will Reece talks about some of the ways that young college administrators are gaining a foothold into learning more about the industry, including what mentorships are out there in order to build their resume. Reece expands on the various issues surrounding the idea of moving too quick or not quick enough and whether candidates gain a reputation for “dancing” with a hiring committee during a job search. Reece discusses the third annual AD Symposium held in Oct. in Chapel Hill by NextLevel and what attendees can expect from this year’s lineup. Twitter: @NextLevelReece
