Doug Hirschhorn (photo left) or Dr. Doug as he is known on television – advises Wall Street’s elite deal-makers and traders, and is a regular contributor on CNBC.
A former athlete and floor trader, Dr. Doug’s path to Peak Performance coaching was a bit circuitous. As the catcher and captain of his Division I baseball team in college, he aimed to eventually return to a professional sports career. So after spending a few years post-college working on the trading floors in Chicago, he went back to school to earn the advanced degrees necessary to become a baseball coach. Dr. Doug entered a Masters degree program in sport psychology, and it was there that he had his ‘aha!’ moment: If the psychological principles he was learning could be applied to athletes, why not try them out on traders– a similarly competitive breed?
The idea worked. Less than five years later, Dr. Doug is an in-demand public speaker and Peak Performance coach, counting the titans of Wall Street, hedge funds, and largest banks in the world among his clients.
Dr. Doug received his B.A. from Colgate University in 1994, and went on to earn an M.S. in Exercise Science in 2000 from Southern Connecticut State University. In 2005, he received his Ph.D. in Psychology (with an emphasis in sport psychology) from Capella University. He is currently the chief executive officer of DrDoug.com, a consulting firm specializing in “Peak Performance Coaching.”
Dr. Doug is based in New York City, where he lives with his wife and three children. He is a regular contributor for CNBC and has also appeared on NBC’s Today Show, VH1’s The Fabulous Life, and currently hosts a weekly video blog for CNBC.
