Keith Wyche knows first-hand how to lead an organization through change. As past President and CEO of Cub Foods (a division of SuperValu), a $3 billion grocery chain with more than 8,000 employees, Keith led the division to double-digit sales growth in his first year—even though his only retail experience with groceries was buying them. After successfully turning around Cub Foods, SuperValu needed Keith to turn around their Acme Markets division, a larger division with 113 grocery and pharmacy stores and 11,000 associates that had been on a downward spiral as sales and profits had declined for the prior five years. Within a year, Keith had reversed that trend and led the chain to growth for the first time in a half a decade. Before joining Supervalu, Keith was President of U.S. Operations for Pitney Bowes. There he turned around an organization that was losing clients, seeing its competition eat its market share, and suffering from a demoralized workforce. Keith began his career in sales, marketing and management with AT&T and IBM. Previously, he served on the Corporate Board of Directors of WMS Industries and the National Black MBA Association (NBMBAA).

Are you ready to become an "executive?" The realities of executive life can be sobering for those who are not well prepared. On the surface, honest accounts of the executive experience can be (mis)interpreted as discouragement. However, embracing reality is essential to achieving personal fulfillment and avoiding disillusionment. We don't need to argue why becoming an executive is an amazing opportunity, it's just a matter of managing the distractions that can interfere with your ability to maximize the experience. Given the pressures of the economy, stakeholder interests, and increased transparency those selected for top leadership jobs are asked to hit the ground running. The skills and characteristics that are critical to being a successful executive are new, challenging, and often counterintuitive. For that reason, Keith will share some of the essential truths about the executive experience that are seldom discussed, but have the potential to derail success. This session is not only about recognizing the realities, although anticipation is half the battle. He'll also share advice about how to manage the circumstances effectively, using practical and tested strategies, so that you can be the executive you dreamt of becoming. ...less
