MSU Leadership Institute Presents Executive Coach Whit Mitchell, Members Of 1986 Dartmouth Rowing Team, 11/17, Bozeman, Montana

Whit Mitchell, author of the book "Working In Sync," and seven members from the Dartmouth Class of 1986 crew team, will discuss how leadership skills acquired as college athletes propelled them to remarkable success in their respective fields. Despite many different career paths, the former teammates share the common lesson of success through teamwork.

Whit Mitchell, author of the book "Working In Sync," along with seven successful members of his college rowing team, will appear in a panel lecture at 7:30 p.m. Monday, Nov. 17, at Montana State University SUB Ballrooms to discuss how skills learned as college athletes propelled them to professional success. The lecture is free and open to the public and 150 free books will be distributed at the event.

Over the past 30 years, Mitchell has worked with a diverse group of executives across Fortune 500 companies, regional corporations, and small businesses, developing dynamic leaders and teams. In his book, "Working In Sync," Mitchell writes about how he draws on lessons he learned as the freshman crew coach at Dartmouth in the 1980s, when he developed a group of young men, most of whom had never rowed before, into a team of high achievers.
