A Crisis of Trust? Trust in a Culture of Suspicion and Spin
September 16–17, 2004 | Yale Law School, New Haven, Connecticut.

Trust is central to the functioning of all spheres of life. Good leaders strive to be trustworthy and to create institutional cultures and structures that foster trust among their stakeholders. This interdisciplinary conference will draw on a wide variety of fields, including theology, philosophy, business, and politics.

The keynote speakers are Ambassador Philip Lader, Chairman of the WPP Group plc and Senior Advisor to Morgan Stanley International; Baroness Onora O’Neill, Principal of Newnham College at the University of Cambridge (England) and author of A Question of Trust; and Jürgen Moltmann, emeritus professor of systematic theology on the Protestant Faculty of the University of Tübingen (Germany).
