#23 The NFL, Be Adaptable and Ask for Help with James Elwood the NFL guy

February 09, 2021 • Steve Ody • Episode 23

James Elwood is MD of NFL Weekends , a young entrepreneur, full of energy and hope. An all round good guy, sports fanatic and lover of travel.

This is a story of perseverance, remaining steadfast in your vision despite huge challenges and building your network so that when this pandemic abates and we can all travel again.

His career has taken him to Harrods when he left school down to Oz and new Zealand for a few spells to play cricket and got the travel bug when he worked with several of the UK’s top travel companies.

James set up NFL Weekends just before covid struck. Now that could have been that, throw in the towel, look for something else - but it wasn’t – James decided to fight, to use the most challenging of times to build his network, build more relationships and double down on his positive mindset. He’s going be ready for when the travel gates open up again and his clients can once again hear the phrase ‘welcome aboard this flight to Miami International Airport or JFK New York.

He's gone through a lot over the last 10 months, no-one associated with travel are out of the woods yet but James' mindset and attitude is perfect - just like Tom Brady's!!
