What can anthropology bring to leadership? Ask Will Venable '05 who is profiled in the @WSJ for leading one of @MLB most improbable turnarounds. As an undergraduate, Venable explored baseball through an anthropological lens in his thesis, The Game and Community: An Anthropological Look at Baseball in America and Japan.

Over the past 100 years, there have been four managers who came from the Ivy League. None has won a playoff game since 1965. Enter Will Venable. He went to Princeton to play basketball -- and is now at the helm at MLB's biggest surprise. wsj.com/sports/baseball/vena…

MLB front offices are filled with Ivy League alumni. The Chicago White Sox put Will Venable in their dugout. And now, they’re on the brink of the playoffs.

"As far as my thesis, or my experience taking a deeper dive in Japanese baseball, it’s just the commitment to the game and their ability and willingness to just give everything to the game." In 2005, Will Venable authored a senior thesis titled, “The Game and Community: An Anthropological Look at Baseball in America and Japan." Now, as manager of the @WhiteSox, he shares how his college capstone project could help transition Munetaka Murakami, a first baseman who joined the team from Japan this off-season: atmlb.com/49wePTQ (via @MLB)
