On today’s episode, I’m talking to the Cleveland Guardian’s Assistant Director for Player Development, Jen Wolf, about making your own luck.
Jen currently works with the Guardians where she’s taking a holistic approach to player development. She’s spent her whole career in baseball, previously working with the New York Mets and Washington Nationals as well as in the Commissioner’s office. It all started when Jen was in high school, working at a bagel shop where the GM of the Red Sox was a regular. She took a chance and told him she was interested in working in baseball and began an internship before college. Jen has built her career by making the most of every opportunity presented to her and setting up the conditions for success.
We talk about:
- Taking advantage of jobs we might not be excited about as opportunities to learn new skills
- Finding a job that allows us to take on the projects that we’re passionate about full-time rather than on top of our other roles
- How women and non-binary people can use their networks to understand if a workplace is really as inclusive as it claims
