From the diamond to the boardroom, Alex Rodriguez has adamantly proven that success knows no bounds. Following a glittering career in Major League Baseball, A-Rod’s post-retirement foray was into the world of business – an enterprise he started as a teenager. All throughout his career, the Mariners’ debutant redefined the concept of hard work. Now, years after his retirement, with a net worth of $350 million, the 2009 Yankees World Champion headed to Stanford to teach a course called ‘Strategic Pivoting to Your Next Chapter’ alongside Stanford instructor Allison Kluger.
However, this time, in a series of stories uploaded by A-Rod, the Yankees slugger managed to share a room with a high-profile, former executive from META.
