Alex Ferguson, the legendary British soccer manager for Manchester United who is famous for his volcanic temper, is bringing his coaching techniques to Harvard Business School.

Ferguson, who retired from managing ManU last year, will teach in Harvard’s executive-education program, the school said this week.

Ferguson, 72, is the most successful manager in British soccer and was knighted in 1999.

At ManU, he developed players including David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo, and won 13 league championships.

“We look forward to welcoming Sir Alex Ferguson on the HBS campus to share his remarkable leadership journey and contribute to our Executive Education participants’ ability to make a profound difference in the world,” said Anita Elberse, a Harvard Business professor who developed a case study with Ferguson.
