THURSDAY KEYNOTES

  • JIM KOUZES "The Truth about Leadership"
    For the last two years, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have been revisiting the data collected over the past three decades in search of those leadership lessons that have endured the tests of time and passed the scrutiny of statistics. As we confront our ever-changing world, they believe it's critically important to keep the fundamentals of leadership in mind, attending to what's proven and real rather than being swayed by fad or fancy, hype or hard sell. They have collected their observations into a new book, The Truth about Leadership: The no-fads, to-the-heart-of-the-matter facts you need to know. In this keynote session, Jim will engage participants in interactive exercises designed to explore in depth some of these enduring truths.

    Jim Kouzes is the Dean's Executive Professor of Leadership, Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University and the coauthor with Barry Posner of the internationally award-winning and best-selling book, The Leadership Challenge, now in its 4th edition with over 1.8 million copies sold. Jim is not only a highly regarded leadership scholar—The Wall Street Journal has cited him as one of the ten best executive educators in the U.S.

  • BARRY POSNER "Global Leadership: Lessons from Around the World"
    One of the points Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner have often made is that great leaders are great learners. For the last year, Barry Posner has been on sabbatical leave from Santa Clara University, traveling the globe in a quest to learn and understand the intricacies of leadership and leadership behaviors around the world. Through the lens of his adventures teaching, interviewing, studying and exploring in Hong Kong (Visiting Professor, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology), China, Vietnam, Cambodia, Australia, South Africa, Turkey (Visiting Professor, Sabanci University), and Italy, Barry will share with us the leadership lessons he has learned, including global findings from the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI).

    • Barry Posner co-author of The Leadership Challenge and The Student Leadership Challenge and co-creator of the Student LPI, is Professor of Leadership at the Leavey School of Business, Santa Clara University, where he served for 12 years as Dean of the School. Barry is an internationally renowned scholar who has published more than 85 research and practitioner-oriented articles. He has just completed a year teaching and doing research around the world, during which time he was a Visiting Professor at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in the Fall (2009) and at Sabanci University (Turkey) in the Spring (2010). In between he also offered seminars in Australia and South Africa.
FRIDAY KEYNOTE
  • STEVE FARBER "Greater Than Yourself"
    The truly great leaders in life and work become so by causing others to be greater than themselves. In this keynote—based on his bestselling book, Greater Than Yourself—Steve shows that dedicating yourself to bringing others along so that they can achieve more than you is the ultimate way to boost talent, ramp productivity and create truly significant current and future leaders. Steve Farber is the President of Extreme Leadership, Inc.

    • Steve Farber is the president of Extreme Leadership, Incorporated, an organization devoted to the cultivation and development of Extreme Leaders in the business community. His latest book, Greater Than Yourself: The Ultimate Lesson In Leadership, was a Wall Street Journal® and USA Today® bestseller.
A CONVERSATION WITH MARSHALL GOLDSMITH
  • MARSHALL GOLDSMITH "Leadership Journey's: A Conversation with Marshall Goldsmith"
    Named one of the 15 most influential business thinkers in the world, in 2009 by The (London) Times and Forbes, Dr. Marshall Goldsmith is a well-respected author, speaker, and all-around leadership guru. In this session, Dr. Goldsmith will take center stage in an "Inside-the-Actor's-Studio" format- answering questions posed by his good friend and colleague Jim Kouzes. We will explore Goldsmith's unique contributions to the field, his newest publication MOJO: How to Get It, How to Keep It, and How to Get It Back When You Lose It, as well as his thoughts on leadership and leadership development—what's so important about it and why we should care.

    • Marshall Goldsmith teaches executive education at Dartmouth's Tuck School and is a Fellow of the National Academy of Human Resources
