  • Trump’s First 100 Days: Navigating an Uncertain Future
    May 9 2025
    This podcast is the replay of a webinar Protiviti hosted in January.
    April 30 marked the 100th day of the second Trump administration. Since Inauguration Day, the administration’s actions have reshaped national and international policies, resulting in economic uncertainty, geopolitical risk and global instability. Traditional scenario-planning and risk management strategies are insufficient to address the seismic shifts that have taken place in such a short time.
    In this webinar, our panel of experts dissect the immediate and long-term implications for U.S. and global businesses, as well as provide pragmatic advice to help attendees:
    • Unpack the key developments of the first 100 days
    • Identify the possible winners and losers
    • Manage through this period of uncertainty
    • Consider what may be just over the horizon
    Speakers:
    Carol Beaumier, Senior Managing Director, Global Leader for Thought Leadership, Protiviti
    Michael Brauneis, Executive Vice President, Global Industry & Client Programs, Global Financial Services Industry Leader, Protiviti
    Peter Henry, Senior Fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institution; Senior Fellow at Stanford’s Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI)

  • Trump 2.0: Possible Winners and Losers
    Mar 13 2025
    This podcast is the replay of a webinar Protiviti hosted in January 2025.
    President Donald Trump took office in January with Republican control of both the Senate and the House and with a conservative-leaning Supreme Court. He has moved quickly to appoint cabinet members, agency heads and others who share his vision for the United States. He has also appointed individuals to advise him and his administration on a range of issues (e.g., energy, border, crypto and AI czars) and created a Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to make recommendations to the White House on ways to make government more efficient. Given these developments and what the president has said about his plans, which are the potential industry winners and losers and how might CEOs prepare for the administration based on this evolving information?
    Discussion topics include:
    • Industries likely to be most impacted favorably and unfavorably
    • The potential for increased mergers and acquisition activity
    • The impact of U.S. policy on non-US domiciled companies
    • The outlook for AI
    Speakers:
    • Carol Beaumier, Senior Managing Director, Global Leader for Thought Leadership, Protiviti
    • Michael Brauneis, Executive Vice President, Global Industry & Client Programs, Global Financial Services Industry Leader, Protiviti
