On Thursday, October 17, the Strauss Center hosts Michael Turner, nonresident senior fellow with the Atlantic Council’s Global China Hub, for a fireside chat with Strauss distinguished scholar Michael Mosser on “On the Ground in China: Perspectives from the Former State Department Spokesperson in Beijing.”
In this discussion and subsequent Q&A, Mr. Turner will discuss his experiences in his most recent post as spokesperson for the U.S. Embassy in Beijing, particularly regarding lessons he learned in managing strategic crisis communications and effectively conveying U.S. messaging priorities within an information environment ripe with disinformation.
This event is co-sponsored by the Strauss-Clements Asia Policy Program and the LBJ School of Public Affairs and is part of the Brumley Speaker Series. Lunch will be provided. This talk will be under Chatham House rules and registration is required: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/on-the-ground-in-china-perspectives-of-state-dept-spokesperson-in-beijing-tickets-1041454557617
