KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Former Commander of U.S. and International Forces in Afghanistan, General Stanley McChrystal, will deliver the Keynote presentation at the 2012 Product Show & Conference, April 21-24 in San Antonio, Texas. The event is expected to welcome more than 2,000 attendees and some 400 exhibitors for the largest event of its type within the Industrial Supply Channel.

General McChrystal's presentation, Plywood Leadership: Lessons on Leadership from a Warrior, Statesman, and Scholar, is scheduled for Sunday, April 22 in the Henry B. Gonzales Convention Center.

In this dynamic presentation on leadership, General Stan McChrystal shows how modern warfare, business, and politics demand no-nonsense leadership that is as good at implementing change as talking about it. He reveals the power of culture, communication, and relationships, sharing stories, experiences, and principals that make his points. McChrystal addresses such key leadership principles as transparency and inclusion, leveraging the power of teams through shared ownership, evolutionary change versus revolutionary change, relentless mission focus, and sharing a clear vision with everyone who must execute against it.
