David Whetten- Prior to joining the Marriott School of Management faculty in 1994 Dave was on the faculty at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, for 20 years, where he served as Associate Dean of the College of Commerce, Harry Gray Professor of Business Administration, and Director of the Office of Organizational Research.
He currently serves as the Editor of the Foundations for Organizational Science, an academic book series, and from 1988-90 he served as Editor of a professional journal, the Academy of Management Review.

His management text, Developing Management Skills, is in its third edition, and was recently adapted for the European market under the title, Developing Management Skills for Europe. This pioneering work in management skill education earned Dave and his co-author, Kim Cameron, the David Bradford Distinguished Educator Award from the Organizational Behavior Teaching Society in 1992.
Dave has been very active in his professional association, the Academy of Management. In 1991, he was elected an Academy of Management Fellow, in 1994 he received the Academy’s Distinguished Service Award, and in 1996 he was elected to a five-year term as a national officer in the Academy, which culminates in the position of president in the year 2000.
He is also an active management trainer and consultant, having worked with a variety of profit and non-profit organizations, and several major businesses including Caterpillar and State Farm. He teaches classes and workshops on strategy implementation organizational change, organizational values, and a variety of managerial skills, including motivation, conflict management, team building, and communications.
