Keynotes

Keynote by speaker John Gregory Vincent: Leadership Development Through The Submarine Way Lens of Inclusion

Embrace the authentic and powerful leadership development approach perfected on submarines

For more than 60 years nuclear submarines have been operating under the oceans of the world without a single nuclear accident. Nuclear submarines are the most sophisticated vessels to operate on earth. Add to this an environment filled with stress, conflict and continuous change of personnel, and the fact that the average age of a submariner is 23, and 80% have only a high school diploma.  It is possible because leaders are developed the minute they step onboard a submarine. Leaders are infused with the knowledge that with an interdependent, collaborative approach to developing people, measurable results will consistently be achieved.

Key takeaways:

You will learn how to focus on talent, rather than just skills when developing yourself and others.

You will understand how to instill a situational leadership mindset in everyone to drive innovation and productivity.
