Peyton Manning’s leadership lessons for advisors

In a speech to advisors and in the way he played the game, the Denver Broncos' Peyton Manning taught valuable lessons that will outlive his playing days.

Denver Broncos quarterback Peyton Manning announced Monday that he was retiring from the NFL. “There’s just something about 18 years. Eighteen is a good number,” Manning said in a Denver press conference. “And today I retire from pro football,” after 18 record-setting years, including winning two Super Bowls, most recently last month in Super Bowl 50.

Manning has husbanded his football salaries throughout his career. Forbes estimates his 2015 compensation was $27 million (including $12 million in endorsements) making him the 32nd highest-paid athlete on Forbes’ list last year. MoneyNation says Manning has a net worth of $191 million.
