Kelley Walton has worked in professional sports hiring for over 10 years, as the director of human resources for the Columbus Blue Jackets. Now a practicing lawyer and instructor with Ohio University’s Sports Administration program, Walton has authored a book on breaking into the industry called Prepare for Opportunity: A practical guide to applying for a job in sports. Walton talks about the reasons why she felt the book was necessary, what Gen-Y has to offer the industry, and how lawyers are talking over not only the world as a whole, but especially athletic departments where the legal and analytical issues are beginning to grow larger daily.
