Stan Kasten, President & CEO of the Los Angeles Dodgers

For four decades, Stan Kasten has been a highly respected sports figure and developed a reputation for creating winning franchises, relying on three pillars — scouting and player development, enhancing the fan experience and community outreach — to establish franchises built for long-term success on and off the field.

That track record has continued during his tenure with the Dodgers, where the club has had an unprecedented run of success. Since Kasten became the Dodgers’ President and CEO, the team has topped the Majors in attendance each full season and was also named ESPN’s 2020 Sports Humanitarian Team of the Year for the work and community impact of the Los Angeles Dodgers Foundation and, more recently, Sports Team of the Year for 2021 by Sports Business Journal.

Kasten has been a member of numerous MLB, NBA and NHL ownership committees during his professional career and is also a former trustee of the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame. In 1999, Kasten became the first sports figure to hold the title of president of three different teams in three different major sports simultaneously, doing so with MLB’s Atlanta Braves, the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks and the NHL’s Atlanta Thrashers.

Prior to joining the Dodgers, Kasten was president of the Washington Nationals from 2006-10, where he worked to re-energize a dormant baseball fan base and simultaneously established a crown jewel franchise in Washington, D.C.

Kasten is Emeritus Director of the Sports Lawyer Association and serves on the LA84 Foundation Board of Directors as well as the Rose Bowl Institute Advisory Board. A native of Lakewood, N.J., Kasten is a graduate of New York University and Columbia University Law School. Kasten and his wife, Helen, have four children: Alana, Corey, Sherry, and Jay.
