Through caring faculty that help students aim higher, Walsh aims to provide learning that transcends the classroom and to show that leadership requires more than intellect.

    In addition to the always excellent pedagogical focused program, OBTS will is unveiling its latest addition to the conference - the Management Teaching Review (MTR) Developmental Workshop. Are you thinking about turning your OBTC session into an article for our new online journal Management Teaching Review (MTR) but are not sure how?  Do you have a great experiential exercise you use in class that you would like to let everyone know about through MTR?  Are you just trying to figure out if you having something that could be submitted to MTR?  Or maybe you just couldn't get a flight out until Sunday and need something to do Saturday afternoon.  If any of these are true, then come to the MTR Developmental Workshop to get started on turning your ideas into publications. Register for the MTR Development Workshop at http://obts.org/register.

    We look forward to seeing you next month in Ohio!
