SUMMARY:Careers / Jobs:A Conversation with Matt Rothman of Disney & ESPN
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in exploring where a career in Media can take you? Join us for an informal virtual presentation and conversation with LSA Alum and ESPN Corporate Strategist\, Matt Rothman! During this event\, Matt will discuss his journey from LSA student to being a corporate strategist for the industry leader in sports entertainment. After a brief presentation\, we will open up a conversational Q&A where you will be able to answer questions about Matt's journey\, what it's like to work for a major media organization\, and industry wisdom that can only come from years of experience in the field.\n\nAbout Matt in his own words:\n\"I've spent my career at the intersection of sports\, media\, and strategy\, doing the kind of work where the stakes are high and the answers aren't obvious.\n\nAt ESPN\, that meant building the models behind major live rights negotiations\, helping launch the company's first branded sports betting partnership and leading a cross-company effort to rethink how we grow and engage the next generation of sports fans. It's the work I've found most energizing: complex\, consequential and often without a clear playbook.\n\nMy background spans both sides of the analytical and strategic divide\, starting in research and analytics before moving into corporate strategy\, which means I'm as comfortable in the data as I am in the boardroom. I've advised C-suite leaders\, built frameworks that shaped nine-figure deals and worked across content\, product\, finance\, distribution and beyond to drive decisions with lasting impact.\"
