Keynote Highlights
Opening General Session:
Dr. Jeremy Graves
Change Leadership: The Art of Moving From
Resistance to Resilience
Organizational change is notoriously difficult to lead, and traditional change management strategies don’t address the root problems that cause change to fail. In Change Leadership, Dr. Jeremy Graves presents a different strategy—one that provides an approachable framework for leaders to guide their teams through the adjustment process and create buy-in by building a culture of change.
Organizational change is most effective when the organization’s people willingly take part in the process. This is why change leadership starts by shifting your focus from the organization to the people.
Understanding the principles of change leadership will help you navigate organizational change at any level, from large, sweeping changes to the smaller adjustments companies make on a regular basis.
Friday Opening Session:
