| The strategies Maria Sharapova used to become a powerhouse startup founder |
| | Good morning,
Like many entrepreneurs, Maria Sharapova's new full-time job started out as a side hustle.
In February, the five-time Grand Slam singles winner retired from professional tennis and immediately poured herself into Sugarpova, the high-end candy company she co-founded in 2012. The move was years in the making--inspired, she said on Wednesday at the Inc. 5000 Vision Conference, by the competitive drive she developed over the course of her stellar athletic career: "I said I would love to own something 100 percent, where I create my own team, I bring in the right resources, the finances, and I make the decisions every single day."
When Sharapova, 33, first launched Sugarpova, she had no idea what she was getting herself into. "You never really grasp the attention to detail, the focus that you have to create, when you're in the midst of beginning and continuing to have your own business," she said. For help becoming an effective CEO, she drew lessons from her athletic career--filled with experiences that have translated surprisingly well to the business world.
Read our story to learn how Sharapova’s tennis career helped her become a powerhouse startup founder and investor--and her advice for other leaders seeking success. And claim your free main stage pass if you haven’t already. |
