The European Chamber Tianjin Chapter is delighted to invite you to our GM Briefing dinner event on Thursday, Nov.29th, 2012 in Tianjin Binhai Crowne Plaza, join us for the informative presentation from our invited speaker from Europe, the Sustainable Leader – Mr. Robert Swan.

Robert Swan, OBE, one of the world’s preeminent polar explorers and environmental leaders, is the first person in history to walk to both the North and South Poles. In 1992, on completion of the walks to both poles, Robert Swan was challenged by world leaders at the first ‘World Summit for Sustainable Development’ to undertake a ten year global and local environmental mission involving industry, business and young people. Upon the successful completion of the missions, Swan reported back to world leaders at the second World Summit in 2002. Here he committed to a further ten-year mission to inspire youth to become sustainable leaders and promote the use of renewable energy for a sustainable future.

Robert’s presentation focuses on his mission to honor his life-long commitment to preserve Antarctica by engaging, inspiring, and educating young people, educators, and business leaders across the globe to make informed and sustainable decisions for the future. The dramatic story of success, failure, and leadership that evolved out of his expeditions and subsequent transition to global motivator has the power to inspire and uplift any audience. His presentation not only highlights the key elements of successful leadership and what it takes to achieve the impossible, but also raises awareness on the issue of climate change and the importance of people and businesses around the world adopting sustainable, renewable energy practices so that Antarctica will never be exploited for its resources.
