In a Men In Blazers Special, Rog and USMNT Coach Jurgen Klinsmann take to the stage at SXSW to kick off their inaugural sports conference. An Liverpudlian and a Stuttgarter bonding over a shared passion for US Soccer.

Rog writes: “SXSW gave us the opportunity to chat free from the constraints of short-term questions about specific players, injuries or match-ups. That felt very liberating.

Jurgen is a very sophisticated thinker. To be able to engage in big picture questions about his own identity, philosophy, change management, and leadership strategy was a real treat. For the audience, the sight of a German and an Englishman bonding over their shared passion for US Soccer glory must have been surreal."
