2015 SOF Day in DC
Aspen Institute President and CEO Walter Isaacson invites all Society of Fellows members to our Washington, DC, headquarters for an informative, lively exploration of the Aspen Institute’s policy programs.
Since its founding in 1950, the Aspen Institute has utilized the “Aspen Method” of text-based, moderated seminars to explore values, leadership, and the good life. In 2004, Walter Isaacson launched a new strategic vision, building on these core values, expanding our subject-specific policy programs, international partnerships, and a global network of young leaders. Come learn more about our work, help us celebrate our successes, and enter the discussion for yourself.
Senior leadership will provide an overview of the Aspen Institute’s 34 Policy programs, which serve as nonpartisan forums for analysis, consensus building, and problem solving on a wide variety of today’s leading issues. There will be three separate sessions on a variety of subjects, followed by a private evening reception. Topics, speakers, and schedule will be finalized in the coming weeks.
