The Play Inspire Unite Podcast is an interview series that features conversations with influential people from within Ontario Soccer and the Ontario Soccer membership.
Discussing issues which impact the province, it's designed to highlight the work of those who are showing us how to Play, Inspire and Unite others in our community.
This week we are joined by Dr. Norm O'Reilly, who is recognized as one of the leading scholars in the business of sports. He is currently Professor and Assistant Dean of Executive Programs in the Lang School of Business & Economics at the University of Guelph, a leading university near Canada’s largest city of Toronto and a keynote speaker at the Ontario Soccer Summit 2020.
As Assistant Dean, he leads Lang’s two professional programs, the MBA and MA (Leadership) degrees. Dr. O’Reilly is also the founding Director of the International Institute for Sport Business & Leadership at Guelph, a think-tank devoted to improving the sports business globally.
