The Indian Chamber of Commerce in Korea (ICCK) will present the Thunderbir­d School of Global Management global forum “Globalizat­ion in Uncertain Times” at the Millennium Seoul Hilton, Tuesday morning.

The session will feature Thunderbir­d School of Global Management CEO and Director General Allen Morrison, Ph.D., who will examine the challenges to leadership in an era of uncertaint­y.

“Rapid technologi­cal change and globalizat­ion are trends that feed off each other. As both accelerate, the rules of the game are changing at a quickening rate. This has left a leadership void — and opportunit­y — for many,” the event organizer said on the Thunderbir­d website.

“While some have called for more authoritat­ive leadership, others have dismissed the need for leadership and called for pure market solutions. Similarly, some have called for more and faster globalizat­ion, and others have suggested that the future lies in national solutions.”

Thunderbir­d’s Global Speaker Series offers attendees the opportunit­y to hear, firsthand, from renowned voices commentato­rs. Previous speakers include the Dalai Lama and Condoleezz­a Rice.

Allen J. Morrison previously served as a senior adviser for global management education and executive education initiative­s at Arizona State University.

Professor Morrison has also authored or co-authored over 60 articles and case studies, and 11 books, including “Sunset in the Land of the Rising Sun” and “Global Explorers: The Next Generation of Leaders.”
