Crisis management expert Commander Kirk Lippold takes his experiences from the military to the boardroom, as he reveals to attendee the lessons he learned while leading the crew aboard the USS Cole following a devastating terrorist attack. You will learn the key steps necessary to lead through crisis and maintain the effectiveness of your team. As he shares his leadership philosophy, Lippold outlines the importance of understanding the human factors during a crisis and how those factors are used to teach one’s own “crew” or team how to prepare for what’s ahead. He provides steps on how to react to contain and then control crises, assess progress in defining a new normal, and measure successes. Lippold’s leadership experience will arm you with a military-grade approach to prepare for and take action when crisis strikes--because it’s not a matter of if, but when.
