Often, when reacting to change, people and organizations need
to reinvent themselves.
For its annual conference, IU’s Kelley School of Business
is inviting four speakers—the leader of a company few believed
could survive a highly visible corporate crisis, the author
of the book Building Public Trust, a Hoosier proponent
for entrepreneurship and the nation’s second highest ranking
military officer—to share their insights and experiences on
leading change.
 “Leading
Change: Reinventing the Organization” is the theme for the
58th annual conference scheduled for Wednesday, March 3 at
the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. Speakers will
be John Lampe, outgoing chairman of the board, chief executive
officer and president of Bridgestone Americas Holding Inc.;
Samuel DiPiazza Jr., global chief executive officer of Pricewaterhouse
Coopers; Steven Beck, president of the Indiana Venture Center; and Gen. Peter Pace of the U.S. Marine Corps, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Registration and networking will begin at 8 a.m. The sessions will begin at 9 a.m. with a presentation by Lampe, “Leadership in Challenging Times.” He will speak about his experience leading Bridgestone/Firestone through the challenges the tire and rubber company faced in recent years. DiPiazza will follow with his presentation, “Managing Risk During Times of Significant Change.” He will discuss the unprecedented changes transforming his profession, their impact on clients and stakeholders around the world, and the challenges ahead for industry-leading PricewaterhouseCoopers.
In his talk to follow, “The Renaissance of Entrepreneurship in Indiana,” Beck will describe how Indiana is adapting to the fast-paced entrepreneurial economy of the 21st century. At lunch, Pace will describe his leadership role in the transformation of the American military into the more flexible, responsive force demanded by the contemporary geopolitical environment.
The program will conclude at approximately 2 p.m.
Registration fee is $130 if received by Tuesday (Feb. 17) or $140. Table registrations are $1,200 for 10 persons or $625 for five persons. Information is available by telephoning 812-855-6340 or by visiting this Web site:
