    Wilderness CEO

    The competitive, transactional and tech-laden world of international business may seem completely at odds with the raw physicality, interdependence and creaturely vulnerability we experience in the world of nature. But in this episode of Insignis, we meet alum Tim Bantle, a one-time wilderness guide and adventurer, now CEO of Seattle -based Eddie Bauer. Tim not only crosses between these worlds, but has made it his vocational and professional mission to hold them together. And he still rides his bike to work everyday. You don't want to miss his story or his insights. And we'll go "down the hall' to meet students and faculty who tell us how both wilderness and business programs are a vibrant part of their formation at SLUH.
