This morning will kick off with an invigorating keynote from best-selling author Greg Larkin. Fueled by coffee and full of optimism, we’ll start the day facing a hard truth: leading change in a big company is really hard. Greg is a no-nonsense leader who has been in the belly of big companies, created change, led innovation, and survived to tell about it.

This session will cover:

• Resistance to innovation: why it’s normal in healthy organizations.
• The 5 forces: how to recognize the five forces of innovation resistance.
• Understand and advance: how to overcome resistance and make an impact in spite of it.

All Nexus attendees will receive a copy of Greg’s book “This Might Get Me Fired: A Manual for Thriving in the Corporate Entrepreneurial Underground.” Greg will also be available for book signings during the event.
