Keynote Speakers:
Angela Duckworth
Through her landmark research and bestselling book Grit, psychologist Angela Duckworth reveals the importance of character and self-control to finding and maintaining success. Her pioneering work provides an actionable roadmap to follow in the footsteps of some of the most tenacious people on the planet by installing and cultivating grit. As the world’s preeminent expert in the intangible forces that predict success, Duckworth has been called upon to advise the White House, professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies and powerful business executives. Her TED talk on grit has garnered over ten million views, and she has been profiled in The New York Times Magazine, Psychology Today, and National Geographic. Duckworth was the winner of the 2013 McArthur “Genius” Grant and currently serves as the Distinguished Professor of Psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and CEO of Character Lab, a nonprofit whose mission is to advance the science and practice of character development.
Charles Duhigg
Charles Duhigg is a Pulitzer prize-winning journalist and two-time New York Times bestselling author. His investigative approach to identifying goals, managing focus and making efficacious judgments have led to some groundbreaking concepts for creating lasting improvements in productivity. Duhigg’s first book, The Power of Habit, broke down the science behind why habits exist and how they can be changed. It spent over 168 weeks on the bestseller list. His latest bestselling book, Smarter Faster Better: The Secrets of Being Productive in Life and Business (2016) is a fascinating exploration into why, in today’s world, managing how you think—rather than what you think—can transform your life. Through his compelling presentation, Duhigg will explore the eight critical concepts utilized by the world’s most efficient and successful people, to help you operate smarter, faster and better.
Celeste Headlee
Celeste Headlee is quite literally the voice of reason in a world that has seemingly lost the ability to communicate properly. As an award-winning journalist and radio/television host, she has made her living having conversations with guests on NPR, PBS World, PRI, CNN, BBC and other international networks. Utilizing lessons highlighted in her recently released book We Need to Talk, Headlee makes the case that technology dependence and divisive politics have left our society less connected and more divided than ever. Her solution? We need to re-learn the strategies that make us better conversationalists and create authentic conversations that matter. Her TED Talk, 10 Ways to Have a Better Conversation, was one of the most-watched of 2016 and has been watched nearly 8 million times.
David Ross
As a two-time World Series Champion, and the first runner up on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars, David Ross is no stranger to success. But before starring on one of TV’s highest rated programs, and before being carried off the field after leading his team to their first championship in 108 years, Ross learned the importance of teamwork and perseverance. Spending most of his career bouncing from team-to-team, few would have guessed that Ross would be the one to lead the Chicago Cubs to an unexpected World Series victory in 2016. Through this inspiring moderated discussion, Ross will impart lessons on talent, adversity, legacy and success that can be found in his new book, Teammate: My Journey in Baseball and a World Series for the Ages. Recently retired, Ross now serves as a Special Assistant for the Chicago Cubs and also works as a TV Baseball Analyst for ESPN.
