After three Olympics, Andrew saw the gap — too many athletes left behind after the final whistle. He founded The Bench to change that, connecting elite talent with employers who value performance, grit, and potential beyond the game
Strong Work Ethic & Discipline
Elite athletes bring unmatched discipline and drive — forged through years of chasing excellence and pushing past limits. In the workplace, that mindset doesn’t switch off.
Leaderhip and Teamwork
Athletes know what it takes to lead — and to follow. They’ve spent years mastering the balance of lifting others up, owning their role, and chasing shared goals. In any team environment, that kind of leadership and cohesion is game-changing.
Resilience and Adaptability
Resilience and adaptability aren’t just qualities for elite athletes — they’re core competencies. Trained to recalibrate under pressure, take feedback without flinching, and bounce back stronger after failure, athletes thrive where others stall. It’s no surprise Harvard Business Review points to them as ideal candidates for fast-paced, high-stakes roles. In volatile environments, they don’t just survive — they adjust, lead, and deliver.
Coachability and Continuous Learning
Athletes are coachable by design — they thrive on feedback, chase growth, and adapt to new playbooks fast. It’s this mindset that lets them hit the ground running and outperform expectations early. In a world that rewards continuous learning, they don’t just keep up — they level up.
Health and Energy Levels
Athletes show up sharp — physically and mentally. Their conditioning fuels focus, reduces burnout, and lifts team morale. Backed by studies showing fewer sick days and higher energy, they bring a ripple effect of positivity and performance wherever they work.
