What Dog Mushing Taught Me About Leadership and Life

What Dog Mushing Taught Me About Leadership and Life

I had the pleasure of being on a podcast produced by the University of Alaska Anchorage. Here is the summary and how to listen:

In this episode of Seawolf Voices, UAA alumnus Dr. Robert Forto hits the trail between two worlds most people don’t often connect: dog mushing and leadership. Drawing from decades of training sled dogs and teaching the sport at the University of Alaska Anchorage, Robert shares why he believes everyone should experience dog mushing at least once. He breaks down how working with a team of dogs has shaped his thinking about people, strategy, and running a business, and even opens up about his goal to race in the Iditarod. Tune in on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, or Audible to hear the full conversation.
