Making Sense of a Confusing Political World
Making Sense of a Confusing Political World
In a year when headlines outpace history, ExportNZ, the NZ-US Council, and ASB are pleased to host US-based political strategist and professor Dan Schnur to help cut through the noise.
In this session, Schnur will share insights on how the current U.S. political cycle and broader global dynamics affect international trade, business confidence, and the operating environment for exporters.
ASB Bank will also be on hand to give us an update on economic conditions both at home and abroad for New Zealand exporters.
Expect a fast, frank briefing on how to interpret global turbulence and what it means for New Zealand exporters!
Dan Schnur brings decades of experience at the heart of American politics, serving on four U.S. presidential and three gubernatorial campaigns, as national communications director for Senator John McCain, and as chair of California’s ethics watchdog. Dan is currently a professor at USC and UC Berkeley.
