Grey Matter: Inside the Minds of the People Who Move the World
Larry Fitzgerald: President, Larry Fitzgerald, Inc. & Pro Football Hall of Famer
The Trait That Built a Hall of Fame Career
Larry Fitzgerald is an 11x Pro Bowler and now a first-ballot NFL Hall of Famer. Since retiring, he’s built a second career as a successful investor, with a portfolio spanning more than 160 companies.
Despite being one of the greatest wide receivers in the modern era, what often gets overlooked is how much his inquisitive mind played in his success, and the discipline to treat the moments that tested him most as turning points for his evolution. That showed up in the way he approached the game, and it has carried into the way he has approached business.
In this episode of Grey Matter, Larry sits down with Consello Founder, Chairman and CEO Declan Kelly to talk about what it takes to keep learning at the highest level, why the hardest adjustments are often the most important, and how the moments that test us can become the moments that move us forward.
