Sunrider Hosts Prestigious BYU Management Society Luncheon


Nearly 60 people attended a luncheon for the Los Angeles chapter of the BYU Management Society at Sunrider World Headquarters yesterday.

Attendees dined on delectable sandwiches and salads before listening to guest speaker Steven Wheelwright, President of Brigham Young University Hawaii. Asked to speak about moral leadership, President Wheelwright focused much of his discussion on trust and its importance in moral behavior and accountability. At the conclusion of the luncheon, Sunny Beutler presented President Wheelwright with an antique, Chinese four-horse chariot.

President Wheelwright is an MBA and doctorate degree recipient from the Stanford Graduate School of Business and has spent much of his career as a professor and administrator at the Harvard Business School. He also served as a Mission President for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in London.

According to its website, the society was founded in 1977 and “includes not only BYU and Marriott School alumni, but many other business professionals with the same desire for professional advancement, high ethical standards, career development, and continuing education…the management society is an influential organization with about 6,000 members in 40 U.S. cities and 10 countries.”

Sunrider was proud to host the luncheon for a great group of people—a group which shares many of Sunrider’s business ideals, such as integrity and strong ethics.
