Molly Fletcher is a trailblazer in every sense of the word– a rare talent of business wisdom, relationship brilliance and unwavering optimism. A popular keynote speaker, she shares the unconventional techniques that helped her thrive as one of the first female sports agents in the high stakes, big ego world of professional sports and now a successful entrepreneur.
Formerly, as president of client representation for sports and entertainment agency CSE, Molly spent two decades as one of the world’s only female sports agents. 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. Molly shares her proven approach to negotiating in her company’s Game Changer Negotiation Training workshops, teaching people how to close more deals faster, while strengthening the relationship.
Molly has been featured in ESPN, Fast Company, Forbes and Sports Illustrated. A sought after motivational speaker, she delivers game changing messages to top companies, trade associations, and teams worldwide.
Molly is the author of four books: Fearless At Work, A Winner’s Guide to Negotiating, The Business of Being the Best, and The 5 Best Tools to Find Your Dream Career.
Molly currently serves as a National Trustee member for the Boys & Girls Clubs of America and on the board of directors for the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) and the national advisory board for the Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA).
Molly earned a bachelor’s degree in communications from Michigan State University while captaining the women’s tennis team. Molly’s energy and passion for life shines through everything she does. She finds her greatest joy at home in Atlanta with her husband Fred and their three daughters.
Potential is one of the most dangerous words in the dictionary. If you achieve it, you’re capable of greatness. But missing it means you stay stagnant and frustrated. Embracing your potential requires a mindset shift. You have to reimagine how you lead, how you show up for the people you serve, and how you lean into change. The good news is these are all things you can control. Using lessons from her career as a top sports agent, Molly Fletcher gives you a proven 5-step process for unleashing your potential and achieving peak performance.
Key pillars: Belief, Discovery, Clarity, Discipline, Execution
How often do we equate success with talent? All the time. But success isn’t created by talent alone. Just like we might see immense talent squandered, we also see underdogs unexpectedly overachieve. As a top sports agent, Molly saw firsthand that talent might get you there, but it’s drive that keeps you there. The best athletes in the world can’t be complacent or someone will take their spot. But the real magic happens when they stop focusing on the competition against others and start competing against themselves. In that simple mindset shift, the drive to achieve is replaced by something more sustainable—the drive to get better. This keynote inspired by Molly’s viral TED Talk will motivate you to love the process, embrace the journey, and find joy in the everyday discipline.
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 Fletcher shares what drives top leaders and how they inspire collective success. Learn how the best leaders:
Lead with curiosity and embrace change
Connect vs. communicate and create a culture of feedback
Inspire ownership and a culture of success
