Knight Kiplinger to Keynote WANADA Luncheon, Nov. 14
In a repeat appearance for WANADA, Knight Kiplinger, one of Americaês most respected economic journalists and business forecasters, will be the featured speaker at WANADA’s Annual Meeting and Luncheon, Tuesday, Nov. 14, 2006, at the McLean Hilton in Tysons Corner, Virginia.
Kiplinger is the editor in chief of [I]The Kiplinger Letter, Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine and KiplingerForecasts.com. In his writing, speeches and appearances[/I] on major TV and radio networks, he cuts through the complexity of financial subjects with clarity and foresight. Washington Area new car dealer principals, kindred-line affiliates, associates, key managers, and business friends will not want to miss his informative and animated take on today’s fast-changing financial and political environment.
A graduate of Cornell University who did graduate study in international affairs at the Woodrow Wilson School of Princeton University, Kiplinger came to Kiplinger Publications in 1983, following 13 years in newspaper journalism as a Washington correspondent and editor. For six years he was Washington bureau chief for Ottaway Newspapers, Inc., a chain of 22 daily papers owned by Dow Jones & Company.
In the late 1980s, Kiplinger co-authored two best-selling forecast books which contradicted the prevailing pessimism of that time, accurately predicting that the United States would set the global pace for economic growth and technology leadership in the 1990s. He, of course, was right. In his most recent books, he forecast that the U.S. will continue to benefit from soaring productivity and surging trade with the expanding economies of Asia, Latin America and Eastern Europe.
Kiplinger is a frequent guest on CNN, Fox and CNBC, among others, and he has appeared on “Wall Street Week with Louis Rukeyser, The Today Show, CBS This Morning and Larry King. He is an occasional commentator on “Marketplace,” the daily business report heard on PBS nationwide.
Come and hear one of the leading investment and economic speakers of our day in what promises to be one of WANADAês best Annual Luncheons yet! The meeting will also feature an association update and election of 2007 WANADA officers and directors to the WANADA Board.
