The Wall Street Journal CEO Council will convene in Washington, D.C. on December 5 and 6, a month after the midterm
elections and almost a year since Russia upended global geopolitics with its invasion of Ukraine. We will explore how the
balance of power has shifted in Washington, and how that will impact business, the economy and society. We will delve into
the outlook for inflation and markets, how the pandemic has reshaped the way people work and how trade and geopolitical
relationships are evolving in a more complex and fractious world. The Summit will also take stock of how leadership has
morphed, as CEOs face new calls to take stances on social and political issues. How are CEOs preparing? Join us.
