Dante Dibattista '17 recently published The Transformational College Experience: How to Make the Most of It, which chronicles his evolution from an apathetic student into a motivational speaker. Dibattista graduated in the bottom 25 percent of his high school class and failed out of college on his first attempt. Later, he graduated from Widener University with a degree in psychology as a dean's list student.

Dibattista is now a leadership development coach, consultant, and public speaker for organizations throughout the world. LA Weekly named him one of the top leadership coaches to follow in 2023. In addition, he also facilitates leadership development programs through the MIT Leadership Center. His book is available for purchase at Amazon.com.
