For business leader Jim Kavanaugh, CEO of Worldwide Technology, many of the secrets to building a successful business empire can be found in the values he honed as a dedicated athlete.  Following a run as a collegiate and professional soccer player, including participation in the 1984 Pan Am and Olympic teams, he harnessed the lessons he learned on the pitch into a business career as co-founder and president of World Wide Technology, a global IT technology firm. 

In this episode of the Unlocking Significance Podcast, Kavanaugh unpacks the importance of a collaborative leadership style, his reliance on mentors, not being afraid to lead, and why being committed to doing the right thing is important.
