"Training’s Tour of Duty: Partnering in the U.S. Army"
As a Lieutenant General in the United States Army, Rick Lynch commanded the Installation Management Command (IMCOM), responsible for managing all 163 installations in the US Army. Overseeing a $12.3 billion budget and a worldwide workforce of 120,000, IMCOM focused on providing our Soldiers, Families and Civilians with a quality of life commensurate with their quality of service. As with any military action, success of that mission depended on a combination of intelligence, strategy, dedication and collaboration. In this keynote session, GeneralLynch will outline the challenges faced in managing a diverse workforce of soldiers and civilians, helping you learn strategies and approaches to be victorious in any endeavor. You’ll also hear proven methodologies to engage a global workforce to support your organizational objectives and you’ll learn the value of communication, collaboration and commitment to conquer whatever business challenges you face.
