Power Breakfast: Title
Official Event Description:
Tariffs, policies and navigating disruption: Breaking down the top economic and social issues affecting Iowa businesses
Over the past few months, business and nonprofit leaders have been met with a chain of current events nationally and locally that are creating uncertainty around how their organizations will be affected and how to provide steady leadership as circumstances fluctuate on a daily basis.
At our upcoming Power Breakfast, we will convene a panel to offer insight into the local effects of the most pressing economic and social issues on business leaders’ minds. The following are five top issues we have identified with existing or potential effects for Iowa’s business community:
- Changes to federal policy and funding
- Shifting DEI climate
- Tariffs and their potential effects
- Tax policy changes
- Inflation and interest rates
The conversation will also dig into how organizations can think about navigating people and brand leadership in a rapidly evolving climate. We know these issues are developing each day and will incorporate new developments as needed to craft a timely discussion.
Panelists:
- Joel Anderson, partner, RSM US LLP
- Anne Villamil, professor and research fellow in economics, University of Iowa
- Jo Ellen Whitney, shareholder and chair, Employment Law and Labor Relations Department, Dentons Davis Brown
- Mike McCoy, CEO, NCMIC Group Inc.
- Matthew Mitchell, CEO, Bâton Global
As a media company, we believe our products should mirror our community both in the ways we celebrate diversity and in the way we facilitate meaningful conversations about equity. We understand this is essential to supporting a strong and growing community.
