The 36th Annual Spencer Fox Eccles Convocation is just around the corner and this year’s keynote is not to be missed. We are thrilled to welcome David S. Marriott, Chairman of Marriott International and a proud University of Utah alum, to the George S. Eccles Auditorium for a candid conversation on leadership that actually sticks.

In his talk, "From Ranch to Root Beer to Reservations: Leading with Core Values through Uncertainty and Change," Marriott will pull back the curtain on how he navigates volatility, stays anchored to principle, and steers one of the world's largest hospitality companies without losing sight of what matters most. The best part? It is completely FREE to attend, but seats are limited, so do not wait.
