President & CEO Of Edelman To Discuss Trust At The Executives' Club Of Chicago Program

CHICAGO, Feb. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Just revealed at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the 2017 Edelman Trust Barometer reveals that trust is in crisis around the world. The general population's trust in all four key institutions — business, government, NGOs, and media — has declined broadly, creating a global implosion of trust.

In this climate, people's societal and economic concerns, including globalization, the pace of innovation and eroding social values, turn into fears, spurring the rise of populist actions now playing out in different areas across the globe.

Richard Edelman will discuss actions business leaders can take to climb back from a position of deteriorated trust, and ultimately restore belief in a system that too many believe has failed them.

Speaker:
Richard Edelman, President & CEO, Edelman

Moderator:
Lindsay Whipp, Chicago Correspondent, Financial Times
