SUMMARY:Global Conversations: Minnesota’s Diplomats
DESCRIPTION:From the first woman to hold the position of U.S. ambassador through foreign service officers meeting the complex challenges of the 21st century\, Minnesotans have a long and remarkable legacy of diplomatic service. \nJoin Global Minnesota and Landmark Center for our next Global Conversation and discover the stories behind some of Minnesota’s most inspiring diplomats. Hear how Minnesotans have represented our country around the world\, navigating pivotal moments in U.S. diplomatic history\, and how that work has benefited Americans and their communities. \nTom Selinger\, a retired Foreign Service Officer and current Project Manager at the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training\, will bring these stories to life\, sharing accounts of Minnesotans who have served their country through diplomacy. \nJenni’s Cafe will be open for guests to purchase lunch at the Landmark Center. Bag lunches are also welcome. This event is free and open to the public. Register here to attend! \nSpeaker: Tom Selinger\nTom Selinger served 27 years in the U.S. Foreign Service with overseas tours in Albania\, Croatia\, Denmark\, Kyrgyzstan\, and Trinidad and Tobago and portfolios ranging from security cooperation to American citizen services.
