I

Chaos Reveals It

Leadership Lessons from the Front Lines of Crisis

A signature keynote drawn from four decades leading through the worst days in modern American history — TWA Flight 800, September 11, the EMS–FDNY merger, and the halls of international diplomacy. Audiences leave with a language for what leadership actually looks like when the plan collapses.
