General McChrystal

The Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center and University Medical Center will host General (Ret.) McChrystal, who was called “one of America’s greatest warriors” by Secretary of Defense Robert Gates.
 
A dynamic, powerful speaker, McChrystal impresses audiences with field tested leadership lessons, stressing a uniquely inclusive model that focuses on building teams capable of relentlessly pursuing results.

When old systems fall short, he believes true leaders must look for ways to innovate and change. Citing stories from his career, McChrystal reveals a four-star management strategy, concentrating on openness, teamwork and forward-thinking. He built the consulting firm, The McChrystal Group, which focuses on leadership consulting and has written books, including the best seller, Team of Teams: New Rules of Engagement for a Complex World and Leaders: Myth and Reality. 

McChrystal was the former commander of U.S. and international Security Assistance Forces and the former commander of the premier military counter-terrorism force, Joint Special Operations Command.
