With the global talent pool brimming with outstanding up-and-coming leaders, Arizona is poised to globalize business from right here in the desert. As part of Thunderbird School of Global Management’s Professional Development Week, Global Chamber hosted an on-campus event October 21, 2014 that brought global leaders, businesses and globally minded management students to the table to discuss how, together, we can create a professional ecosystem that will attract and retain global talent in the state.
The event was held on the Thunderbird campus in Glendale, Arizona. It attracted top business students and global business leaders. Doug Bruhnke kicked the event off with an hour long presentation on the Global Chamber®... officially launched this month... and other global leaders including Melissa Sanderson with her exporting and international business and diplomatic success stories.
Global Chamber® aims to provide information, inspiration, connections, collaboration, celebration and mentoring for leaders to better understand and connect with global opportunities.

As part of the program, a global business panel was held with Kiyoko Toyama, Melissa Sanderson, Keith Galbut, Charles Bruce, Rudy Vetter and Don Henninger, moderated by Doug Bruhnke. With a networking break and a post-event meet and greet, global business leaders were able to impart their ideas on creating a global career.
