KEYNOTE SPEAKER
RYE BARCOTT
LEADERSHIP - WHEN IT
MATTERS MOST
How do you lead when the
stakes are high? Why is this
new focus on leadership the key to our
future? Barcott will distill the unique leader-
ship lessons he’s learned while simultane-
ously building an NGO in the Kibera slum
of Nairobi, Kenya, and leading Marines
into dangerous places. Explaining that
traditional forms of command-and-control
leadership are ineffective, you’ll walk away
learning why those who will create the
most positive impact in the 21st century
are the men and women who embrace
a new form of "collaborative leadership."
