“Molly served as the Keynote Speaker for a meeting with our top sales professionals across the country.  What stands out for me is the time and effort Molly took in advance to understand our business, and understand what is important to our clients and our associates and then customize her presentation to address those specifics.  Her style immediately draws people in and then she delivers a message that is both inspirational and highly practical.  We are excited to include Molly in a number of future meetings and to continue to find opportunities to work with her and her team.”

She was hailed as the “female Jerry Maguire” by CNN as she recruited and represented hundreds of sport’s biggest names, including Hall of Fame pitcher John Smoltz, PGA TOUR golfer Matt Kuchar, broadcaster Erin Andrews, and basketball championship coaches Tom Izzo and Doc Rivers.

As she successfully negotiated over $500 million in contracts and built lasting relationships, she also observed and adopted the traits of those at the top of their game.

Presentations

Lessons from “the Female Jerry Macguire”

It often takes a crisis to create change in our lives. How can we create transformational change in the absence of crisis and unleash our true potential? In this inspiring keynote, Molly shares stories from her experiences as one of the only female sports agents in the industry as well as lessons from some of the top athletes and coaches in the game. She outlines the 5-step process to unleashing your potential and achieving peak performance.

Learn how to:

  • Move forward purposefully towards goals of your own making
  • Create lasting change and recover from adversity faster
  • Maximize your energy and execute against key priorities

We are fascinated by the pros who perform at the highest level on the biggest stages. What sets them apart? Fearlessness. But fearlessness is a muscle you have to develop. With stories from her experiences working with the world’s greatest athletes, Molly shows you what it takes to overcome fear and perform at the highest level.

Learn how:

  • The best in their field face challenges fearlessly
  • Asking for what you need and want drives breakthroughs
  • Living authentically is the key to success

Most people don’t realize how much they leave on the table for themselves, their team, and their company in negotiations. Why? Because they never learned negotiation skills that work. After negotiating countless multi-million dollar deals as a sports agent in a highly competitive environment, Molly created a framework anyone can use to develop their skills and get better results

Learn how to:

  • Avoid common negotiating pitfalls and set the stage for a deal
  • Negotiate with all types of people and in any situation
  • Overcome fear of negotiating and ask with confidence
  • Approach gender roles within a negotiation

In order to lead, you have to inspire people to want to follow. A true leader knows that leadership extends beyond self. From the arenas of professional sports to the boardrooms of major companies, Molly shares what drives top leaders and how they inspire collective success.

Learn how the best leaders:

  • Connect versus communicate and create a culture of feedback
  • Lead through change and adversity
  • Hire and retain talent with a focus on growth mindset
  • Inspire self-accountability and a culture of success

Successful business development is rooted in relationships, and those who learn how to effectively cultivate relationships rise to the top.  Working in an industry where there are actually more sports agents than athletes to represent, Molly used the power of relationships as her differentiator. She shares her unique tactics that will help you build better and more productive relationships and transform the way you do business.

Learn how to:

  • Take creative approaches towards new business opportunities
  • Differentiate yourself from the competition
  • Grow your business by tapping into existing relationships
  • Close the deal in any business development cycle

Too many women struggle to navigate their careers and find fulfillment without sacrificing professional or personal goals. One of the only female sports agents, Molly was a trailblazer in the male-dominated industry of professional sports. She uses stories, humor and practical insights to inspire women to carve out their own path for success.
