From NFL Locker Rooms to Executive Boardrooms — How One Leader Turned Setbacks into a Playbook for Purpose-Driven Success.
For years, Alex Molden’s identity was wrapped up in a jersey. As a first-round NFL draft pick and University of Oregon Hall of Famer, the roar of the crowd was familiar — but nothing prepared him for the deafening silence after football.
When the cleats came off, the question hit hard: “Who am I without the game?”
That identity crisis didn’t just shake him — it reshaped him.
Alex began to study leadership not just from a coach’s clipboard, but from life’s hardest lessons: losing influence, rebuilding purpose, and learning how to lead without a title. Through that journey, he created a framework—Alignment. Assignment. Adjustment.—that helped him rebuild from the inside out.
Today, Alex equips corporate leaders and top-performing teams with the same tools that helped him redefine his identity and reignite his purpose.
Whether he’s working with Fortune 500 companies, speaking to packed arenas, or coaching leadership teams, Alex helps you:
✅ Keep your top performers
✅ Create a culture of personal ownership
✅ Build leaders who drive performance and purpose
Because true leadership isn’t about the title on your business card.
It’s about knowing who you are when everything else gets stripped away.
