Phyllis Campbell of U.S. Bank to speak about changing economy
The crashing stock market. The Northwest’s impending recession. An increase in mortgage-loan and credit-card delinquencies. All vital issues facing businesses in the slowing economy.
Phyllis Campbell, president of U.S. Bank, Washington, will speak about a business leader’s role in the midst of such a fast-changing economy at the University of Washington Business School Dean’s Breakfast Lecture Series talk at 8 a.m., Wednesday, March 21 in the Husky Union Building’s West Ballroom on the UW campus. A continental breakfast will be served at 7:30 a.m.
Boeing CEO Phil Condit originally scheduled to speak cancelled because of scheduling conflict. He is expected to give a talk later in the series.
Campbell has held her position at U.S. Bank since 1993. In addition to being one of Seattle’s leading financial executives, she has been active in many education and human service issues. Campbell led the 1998 United Way of King County campaign that raised more than $68 million.
A third-generation Japanese-American, Campbell, works on many causes in the Asian American community, including with the Japanese American Citizens League.
Campbell is a graduate of the UW Business School’s Executive MBA program.
Solomon D. Trujillo, graviton Inc. chairman, president and chief executive officer, is scheduled to speak next in the series on April 17. Tickets to each talk cost $12. Call (206) 221-5749 to RSVP.
