												 About the programAfter a tragic and tumultuous year, the importance of leadership is top of mind for Californians. Former Secretary of Defense and White House Chief of Staff Leon Panetta will join PPIC President and CEO Mark Baldassare for a wide-ranging discussion about leading through the critical challenges facing the state and nation.
 As part of our Speaker Series on California’s Future, PPIC invites leaders from across the political spectrum to participate in public conversations. The purpose is to give Californians a better understanding of how our leaders are addressing the challenges facing our state.
