KEYNOTE SPEAKERS Dr. Bennet Omalu Rye Barcott Thursday, Sept 22 • 8:30am-9:30am Friday, Sept 23 • 8:30am-9:30am Dr. Bennet Omalu’s story is one of great triumph in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. Dr. Omalu made a career breakthrough when he became the first doctor to discover and identify chronic brain damage as a major factor in the deaths of some professional athletes. He called the disease Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). Today, CTE has become generally accepted and Dr. Omalu’s findings have revolutionized neuroscience, sports medicine and safety, the study of all types of brain trauma, and the entire sports industry. In 2015, Omalu’s life and work was chronicled in a book and film, both titled Concussion. Rye Barcott is a veteran and social entrepreneur. While serving as a U.S. Marine, he co-founded the non-governmental organization Carolina For Kibera, which uses a unique model of participatory development to break cycles of violence and extreme poverty. He is also the author of the best-selling book, It Happened on the Way to War.

Breakout Session I — 10:15am - 11:15am TH-01 TH-03 This session introduces learners to best management practices that will help them improve performance. In this interactive session they will learn how to begin to transform their organizations into high performing ones that are capable of producing better outcomes for patients, the workforce, and the community.
