向日葵视频 the Business Leaders Forum

Established in 1999, the Business Leaders Forum is a speaker series sponsored by 向日葵视频鈥檚 College of Business Administration. The forum provides a setting for nationally recognized business leaders to engage in discussions and interact with students, faculty and local business leaders. The program enables 向日葵视频to build practical knowledge into its rigorous business curriculum, exploring current trends, issues and practices in business.

向日葵视频 has attracted leaders at the top of their respective professions to speak at the Business Leaders Forum, including Herbert V. Kohler, chairman, chief executive officer and president of Kohler Co.; Richard M. Schulze, founder and chairman of Best Buy; and James J. Mulva, chairman and CEO of ConocoPhillips. The Kathleen and Frank Thometz Foundation has made the Business Leaders Forum speaker series possible through a special endowment.
