As the award-winning author of the best-selling novel, “If You Will Lead: Enduring Wisdom for 21st Century Leaders”, Doug Moran invokes his extensive leadership experience working in both corporate and governmental sectors to form cohesive results that inspire the upcoming panorama of global leaders. He has worked for Verizon and Capitol One, serving as the CIO of social services at the latter. In addition, he has served as the Deputy Secretary of Health and Human Resources, Telecommunications Director, and Chief Operating Officer of the Department of Social Services for the Common Wealth of Virginia, forming critical skills in business, infrastructural, and political collaboration. Through his consultancy and publications, Mr. Doug Moran encourages reflecting upon the values of dynamic leaders of the past to form authentic, sustainable solutions for the future. We are incredibly excited to host him as the Keynote Speaker for WVMUN XIV.
“Leaders excel by seeing and grabbing the leadership opportunities around them. Their awareness and choices build upon each other and form a virtuous cycle, one feeding another. Everything we do is a test of our choices, beliefs, and determination. The value of these tests isn’t to be right; rather, it is to learn and grow.”
