Leadership and Accountability When It Matters
Commander Kirk Lippold, United States Navy (Ret.), Commanding Officer,
USS Cole
11:30 a.m. – 1:15 p.m.
Tuesday, May 25, 2010
Commander Kirk Lippold, USN (Ret.) was the Commanding Officer of the USS
Cole when it came under a suicide terrorist attack by al Qaeda in the
port of Aden, Yemen. During his command, he and his crew distinguished
themselves by saving the American war ship from sinking. Through
preparation and leadership, Commander Lippold inspired his crew to act
decisively in the ultimate crisis situation when terrorists attacked.
Using the theme, “Leadership and Accountability When It Matters,” he
will discuss how the privilege and burden of leadership comes with an
accountability that many aspire to emulate and anyone can rise up to and
achieve. He will describe the events of the morning that the ship was
attacked and detail the steps he took to ensure the safety of his crew.
During his presentation, Lippold will identify the key principles of
integrity-based leadership and speak about what leadership skills are
the most crucial in a time of crisis. He will also discuss how managers
can establish ways to empower their team when facing unexpected
challenges.
