American tennis ace Venus Williams believes athletes make for great entrepreneurs as both sport and business needs good strategy.
Apart from being a tennis player, Williams is the CEO of interior design company, VStarr Interiors and athletic wear brand, EleVen. And the World No. 13 feels that the tactical skills she has developed playing the sport are similar to what she uses to achieve success in business.
"Sport is so much like business. It's all about strategy. And it's all about learning from losing. It's all about setting goals," Williams, who has won seven Grand Slam single titles and 14 Grand Slam doubles titles, told CNBC.
