With North Korea’s announcement of its first successful nuclear test, ever growing fears of a nuclear Iran, and continuing instability in the Middle East, democratic nations across the globe are ever more concerned with security and what is being done to control the spread of nuclear weapons.

In the Eastern hemisphere, Japan now has to reconsider its nuclear policy, and China must determine how it will continue its relations with North Korea. In the West, the European Union must decide how it will continue its humanitarian aid program to North Korea, and in the United States, congressional elections may dictate a new direction for its nuclear policy. What is essential to keeping nations safe? Is there any way to effectively deter North Korea and Iran, or have we reached a new and more challenging nuclear era? Let Keppler’s expert speakers help you determine the best security polices for the future.

Sustainability and social responsibility – these are key hot button societal issues that increasingly drive business strategy. General Electric, Wal-Mart, Honda, Goldman Sachs and Intel are among the many companies to find that “customer-conscious” strategies are more than good public relations. By utilizing practices that focus on the environment, economic growth and social and economic equality, companies can feed their bottom line and build customer loyalty. As G.E. Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey R. Immelt succinctly put it, “Green is green.”

Connecting with customer values is a strategy smart companies are increasingly using to innovate, create value and build competitive advantage. In fact, in a McKinsey Quarterly survey of 3,500 global executives, 87% cited changing consumer tastes and values as the most important trend that will impact their business over the next five years.

Recently, BusinessWeek highlighted the growing trend in a special report, “Beyond the Green Corporation.” The article notes that corporations like Unilever, Toyota, and Target Corporation, who have focused on sustainability and green technologies, are leaving their competitors - companies like General Motors, Ford, and WalMart - behind, forcing them to play catch-up in this latest and global trend.

What does this mean for your organization and industry, and what are the trends? Keppler Speakers can deliver the expert analysis and insights your audience needs.
