Ep #338: Executive Athletes with Ken Lubin

April 23, 2019

Who is Ken Lubin?

I help people to achieve their dreams and companies to reach their goals

"The biggest mistake that you can make is to believe that you are working for somebody else. Job security is gone. The driving force of a career must come from the individual. Remember: Jobs are owned by the company, you own your career!" — Earl Nightingale

I thrive when I am getting people out of their comfort zone. A Death Race winner, managing director/executive recruiter with ZRG Partners, founder of Executive Athletes, and US Olympic Committee Career Advisor.

I am currently a Managing Director with ZRG Partners with a focus on the Financial Services industry. For the past 15 years, I have had tremendous success in placing individuals in the following segments: Equipment Leasing, Fin Tech, Asset Based Lending, Trade Finance, Credit Cards, Banking, and Payments.

In addition to my professional life, I am still a competitive athlete and love the thrill of pushing myself to excel. I still compete in ski racing, bike racing, running races, and endurance events. It is a way to get into a truly introspective state which then allows me to perform better as a professional, parent, spouse, and athlete.

I have developed a personal philosophy that: sacrifice, hard work, desire, and passion for constant improvement drives me to constantly look for ways to excel in my professional and personal life.

I believe that athletics, the quest for optimal health and high performance are highly synergistic. If you pursue both, you can become your best in life, as well as in business."
