Robert Evans Gives His Perspective On Iran’s Nuclear Ambitions In The Middle East

Robert Evans has reported extensively from the region and is here to help make sense of a nuclear Iran and the threat it poses to the United States and the world.

Israel, the US and other Western countries believe Iran’s nuclear program is a cover for developing atomic weapons.

Concern over what to do about Iran came to a head during Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited President Obama at the White House.

Israel asserts his country’s right to defend itself militarily against the Iranian nuclear threat.

President Obama prefers sanctions to military action in the region. A logical concern with US troops already stretched thin across the globe.

Recently, Iranian Officials Offered ‘Permanent Human Monitoring’ of Nuclear Sites softening earlier belligerent talk of closing the Straits of Hormuz if attacked.

Guests for March 16, 2012

Indra Nooyi at Pepsico, Ursula Burns at Xerox, Angela Braly at Wellpoint, Irene Rosenfeld at Kraft Foods, Michelle Gass at Starbucks, Beth Comstock at GE and Virginia Rometty at IBM are women in key positions at major US corporations.

And women are rising to key positions in business all around the country—and it’s not going to change.

What’s less clear is the interaction between men and women in the workplace. Much of it revolves around the different communicating styles of men and women.

To help us make some sense of these differences is Mark Goulston—a former trainer of hostage negotiators for the FBI.

He’ll share communication skills and techniques—based on what he used in life-or-death situations. Mastering these skills will accelerate your career.
