A&S Welcomes U.S. Ambassabor Julia Chang Bloch

 

As part of our Year of China, A&S is pleased to welcome former United States Ambassador Julia Chang Bloch to campus on Thursday November 10. She will speak on “Leadership and Education in a Globalizing World: China’s Challenge.” Ambassador Bloch was the first Asian-American ambassador in U.S. history and served in a wide range of positions, including the U.S. Agency for International Development, the U.S. Information Agency, the U.S. Senate, and from 1989 to 1993 served as U.S. ambassador to Nepal. She is currently president of the U.S. – China Education Trust, a nonprofit organization working to develop U.S. – China relations through education and exchanges.

Ambassador Bloch has devoted her career to increasing international understanding and after a career of distinguished public service, she is now pioneering efforts to grow exchange relationships between the United States and China. We are especially fortunate to have her come to UK to talk with our students and the broader academic community. We hope you will attend this lecture given by a trailblazing U.S. diplomat.

Juice Your Orange

Fallon's principles of creative language (or juicing your orange):

1. Start from scratch

2. Demand a ruthlessly simple definition of the business problem

3. Discover a proprietary emotion

4. Focus on the size of the ideas, not the size of the budget

5. Seek out strategic ricks

6. Collaborate or perish

7. Listen hard to your customers and listen some more
