KEYNOTE SPEAKER:
RYE BARCOTT
LEADERSHIP: WHEN IT
MATTERS MOST

8: 30 – 10 a.m.

During this opening keynote
session, Rye Barcott will distill the unique
leadership lessons he’s learned while si-
multaneously building a non-governmental
organization in the Kibera slum of Nairobi,
Kenya, and leading Marines in Iraq. You’ll
walk away learning why those who will
create the most positive impact in the
21st century are men and women who
can go beyond traditional command-and-
control leadership, to embrace a new
form of “collaborative leadership.”
