Welcome & Keynote Presentation: A Conversation with Coach K – Leading Through Challenges & Adapting to Changes

Mike “Coach K” Krzyzewski is a Naismith Hall of Fame coach, a five time national champion at Duke, and a six time gold medalist as head Coach of the US Men’s National Basketball Team. Join Coach K and CBS News Business Analyst Jill Schlesinger for a discussion focusing on techniques for consistently building a winning team, being prepared for change and achieving success in today’s uniquely challenging business world. As a coach, Krzyzewski’s strength has been to instill motivation with the goal of having every individual in a positive state of mind, utilizing abilities to their fullest, and not afraid to fail. Coach K will share insights he’s gained as a successful leader of teams experiencing turnover as the norm as well as his work as executive-in-residence with Duke University’s Fuqua School of Business, and the recently established The Fuqua/Coach K Center of Leadership & Ethics.
