"In the 1990's, when I was at the State Department, I had the opportunity to participate in Aspen's premiere week-long Aspen Seminar in Colorado.  The seminar is specifically tailored for corporate and other top leaders.  The focus is leadership and community.  I must say, looking back, that week remains a remarkable highpoint for me, a fascinating, informative experience that has had significant impact on me and my leadership skills."  -John Wolf, President, Eisenhower Fellowships, Ambassador and former Assistant Secretary of State.
