5.1 Sports is a Global Business // Tay Hawker

We kick off Season 5 speaking Tay Hawker!  Born and raised in New Zealand, Tay is a talent agent, former NCAA international athlete, and friend. He has over ten years of front office experience in the United States, including a detailed background in sport business and law, talent ID and development, revenue generation, commercial partnerships and strategic development.  His athlete experience, career decisions, and visionary leadership prepared him to be the founder and CEO of Hawker Family Sports and Entertainment. A couple years later, he transitioned to his current position at Halo Sport as a professional agent.  During this podcast, we discuss women’s sports, differences in sport culture between U.S. and New Zealand, as well as how sport management curriculum can best prepare graduates for careers in global sport.
