Nov. 16: Ken Senser, global security chief for Wal-Mart.
Up one levelHurricane Katrina was one of the worst disasters in our nation’s history. But a “culture of preparedness” helped Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. mount an impressive and effective response to the storm. Today, more than one year later, the company is evaluating and perfecting its response . . . and government agencies are learning important lessons from this private company. Ken Senser, Wal-Mart’s Senior Vice President for Global Security, Aviation and Travel, will bring his company’s perspectives on business preparedness for catastrophe to the George Bush Presidential Library on Thursday, Nov. 16, as part of the 2006-2007 season of the ICHS Lecture Series. The lecture begins at 6 p.m. in the library’s orientation theater. A reception for Mr. Senser starts at 5:30 p.m. in the library rotunda. Both the reception and the lecture are free of charge and open to the public.
