Edelman Trust Barometer: 2010 Annual Global Opinion Leaders Study The Mid-America Club 200 E. Randolph Dr., 80th floor | 11:30am-2:00pm |
Please join CEO Richard Edelman, U.S. Chief Operating Officer Nancy Ruscheinski and an esteemed group of panelists to discuss and review the findings in the 2010 Edelman Trust Barometer.
WHY: On the heels of the Great Recession, when trust in business sank to historic lows, the 2010 Trust Barometer reports a rise in trust in business. The rise is tenuous, however, with nearly 70 percent of survey respondents saying business and financial companies will revert to old habits when the financial crisis is over.
The Trust Barometer derives from more than 4,500 interviews across 22 countries and probes the attitudes of opinion shapers on government bailouts; trust in specific industries and countries; and the most credible spokesperson and media.
FEATURED PANELISTS INCLUDE:
WHERE: The Mid-America Club, 200 E. Randolph Dr., 80th floor
WHEN: Thursday, February 11, 2010 Registration and networking: 11:30 a.m.
Luncheon: Noon to 2 p.m.
