The Institute lecture series on performance excellence brings senior executives and thought leaders to the University of Northern Colorado campus to complement and enrich the school's curriculum. The series has two objectives. First, the series enhances the Monfort student experience and provides faculty and local business leaders with leading edge ideas and concepts. Second, the series helps build relationships between the Monfort College of Business, the Institute and the business community.
