If n is an integer, you can use induction. First show the inequality holds for n=1. You have 2^1=2>1, which is true.

Now assume this holds in general for n=k, i.e. that 2^k>k. We want to prove the statement then must hold for n=k+1.

Because 2^k>k, you have

2^{k+1}=2\times2^k>2k

and this must be greater than k+1 for the statement to be true, so we require

2k>k+1

for k>1. Well this is obviously true, because solving the inequality gives 3k>1\implies k>\dfrac13. So you're done.

If you n is any real number, you can use derivatives to show that 2^n increases monotonically and faster than n.
