What’s your hedgehog? Boise State athletes learn from local business leaders

In a notebook already full of concepts and things to remember for the Boise State offense, senior tight end Jake Roh also had pages of notes on business ideas, too.

Wednesday was the last day in a new series of talks for the Broncos’ athletes called “Real Life Wednesday.” It is part of the BroncoLife program, which kicked off in earnest this summer, designed to prepare young athletes for college, personal development and career planning.

Roh was among the athletes on hand Wednesday to hear Idaho Power CEO Darrel Anderson and Fisher’s Technology president/CEO Chris Taylor. Both told their stories of how they worked into their current positions, while also explaining why their companies have succeeded.
