Harnessing Sport for a Good Life
My name is Yuhei Inoue, and I am a Professor of Sport Management at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in the USA.
As a sport management scholar, my vision is to make sport a leading force for enhancing individual and community well-being.
To achieve this vision, my research seeks to create and disseminate knowledge that empowers the sport industry to effectively manage its social impact.
In addition, through my teaching, I endeavor to help students develop into professionals capable of enriching both the sport industry and society.
