Wayne McDonnell Clinical Associate Professor Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management Wayne McDonnell has always had a fascination with numbers and sports. During his early career, he worked as a fi nancial analyst for Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc., and for Madison Square Garden Company, before deciding to share his knowledge by teaching in the M.S. in Sports Business program o ered by the NYU School of Continuing and Professional Studies Preston Robert Tisch Center for Hospitality, Tourism, and Sports Management. According to Professor McDonnell, it’s one thing to be a sports fan, but quite another to appreciate the complexities of the billion-dollar sports industry. Students in his “Financial Management in Sports,” “Sports Management Accounting,” “Revenue Strategies and Pricing,” “Professional Sports Franchises,” and “Financial Analysis” classes would agree. By the time they graduate, they have acquired a deep understanding of the fi nancial transactions and the business operations that go on behind the scenes of a professional sports franchise.
