EVENT DETAILS

As commander of Joint Special Operations Command from 2003 to 2008, General Stanley McChrystal recognized that to battle a decentralized enemy like Al Qaeda, the U.S. would need to discard a century of management wisdom and reinvent military strategies to become more organic and adaptive. Drawing on his experiences in the military, the private sector, and beyond, General McChrystal examines how teamwork, communication, and freedom for experimentation can transform organizations, from the world’s largest military to the smallest institutions.

Stanley A. McChrystal (General, U.S. Army, Retired) is the co-founder of the McChrystal Group and the author of Team of Teams: New Rules of Engagement for a Complex World.
