It's Casey Enders here, CEO of Unlocking Potential. I hope you are all staying safe and healthy during these uncertain times.
Like other organizations, we have been grappling with how to be dynamic, remain true to our mission, and provide a sense of normalcy to our team during this time. I feel especially fortunate to work beside Carly right now, given her extensive experience leading through difficult times – including a severe economic recession, substantial disruption in the stock market, the SARS and Ebola outbreaks, and the terrorist attacks of
9/11. I’ve benefited tremendously from her guidance and leadership – and I’d like to extend the same opportunity to all of you, via a live call with Carly on Friday, March 20th at 11:30 AM EDT. You can sign up for the call
here. We’ll provide you with additional call-in details once you have registered.
During the call, Carly will talk about what the Covid-19 pandemic means for Unlocking Potential and Carly Fiorina Enterprises – but she’ll spend the majority of the call answering your questions and working with you directly on the challenges you’re facing today.
We’ll remind you about Friday’s call over the next couple of days and we hope you can join us for this live conference event.

It is maintained at the Center for Systems Science and Engineering at the Whiting School of Engineering, with technical support from ESRI and the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory. Gardner is co-director of the CSSE.
