Whether in the kitchen or a hotel, leaders need to think on their feet. Even more so, they need to build a team that does the same.

Now, a generous gift by Gina and Frank Day to Metropolitan State University of Denver is infusing MSU Denver’s School of Hospitality with Day’s brand of inclusive leadership that has proved invaluable to the launch of national hospitality success stories such as Rock Bottom Brewery and Old Chicago Pizza and Taproom.

The quest for leadership is dynamic – it changes every day, and there are no two exact same situations. You have to listen and adjust.” – Frank Day
