Dave St. Peter – President & CEO of Minnesota Twins

Session Description:

MN Twins President and CEO Dave St Peter will give behind the scenes info on how the Twins rebuilt themselves to prominence.  He will discuss how the Twins front office was successful in navigating the statistical noise surrounding baseball to create a winning team in a very short time.

Speaker Bio:

Dave St. Peter was named the fourth president in Minnesota Twins history on November 26, 2002. St. Peter also assumed the Chief Executive Officer title on December 21, 2016 and continues to oversee the team’s day-to-day operations, strategic planning and interaction with Major League Baseball.

St. Peter played a central role in the approval, design, construction and opening of Target Field, which was named 2011 Sports Facility of the Year by the Sports Business Journal/Sports Business Daily. As the club president, the Twins established a new single season franchise attendance record in 2010 by attracting more than 3.2 million fans to Target Field while the team was recognized by ESPN as having the best stadium experience in all of professional sports. St. Peter’s leadership has been integral in the team’s growing corporate partnership base; development of the “Magic Moments” customer service initiative; the “Go Twins, Go Green” environmental stewardship platform; expansion of the Treasure Island Baseball Network; aggressive community outreach; and enhanced alumni involvement — including creation of the Twins Hall of Fame.

At age 52, St. Peter begins his 30th year with the Twins. He joined the organization as an intern in 1990 and over his first decade with the franchise held a variety of positions including Pro Shop Manager, Communications Manager, Vice President of Corporate Communications and Senior Vice President of Business Affairs.

At the league level, St. Peter serves as a Trustee on the MLB-MLBPA Player Pension Committee. In the community, St. Peter serves on the boards of the YMCA of the Twin Cities and NuLoop Partners. He also serves on the National Advisory Council for Pitch In for Baseball.

St. Peter was born in Bismarck, North Dakota, and graduated from the University of North Dakota in 1989. Dave, son Jack and twin sons Eric and Ben make their home in Chanhassen, MN.
