Revealed: Top 20 UK Speakers On Geo-Politics… Who Can Help Business Leaders Make Sense Of US Election

white concrete structure

The clock is ticking down to the US Election – with less than three weeks to go until polling day.

Although the impact of the November 5 vote might not seem that relevant to Brits, the reality is that the outcome of the race to the White House will have an impact around the world.

And for business leaders getting a grasp of the repercussions of the US election is particularly vital – not least because the current world geo-political outlook seems to be the most uncertain it has been in perhaps a generation.

Aside from the election, escalating tensions in the Middle East, the continuing conflict in Ukraine, slow economic growth in China, and the uncertainty over Taiwan are all hot subjects for observers of global political issues.

Jack Hayes, director of the Champions Speakers Agency, has assisted many organisations to develop strategies to impart valuable geopolitical insights to employees.

He said: “In a world where the contours of geopolitics seem as elusive as they are impactful, understanding this complex phenomenon is more crucial than ever.

“With over 70% of global leaders acknowledging the increasing complexity of international relations in the past decade, we navigate through the fluid landscape of global politics, where discursive constructions morph into potent political actions.

“The need for insightful analysis has never been greater.”

To help further many business leaders are now hiring speakers who specialise in geopolitics.
