Susan Eisenhower and Bill Heyman

Join Susan Eisenhower, Chairman Emerita of Gettysburg College’s Eisenhower Institute, as she interviews distinguished Gettysburg College alumni about their career journeys and the leadership lessons they’d like to share with fellow Gettysburgians.

As the granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Susan Eisenhower offers students a unique perspective in the arena of leadership development, specifically the character and mindset necessary for today’s generation to bring about change in a complex, interconnected world.

Beyond her integral involvement with the Eisenhower Institute, she is an author, international policy consultant, and an expert on international security, space policy, energy, and relations between the Russian Federation and the United States of America.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• Discover how to embrace accountability and rally others around problems that are not easily solvable.
• Understand what it means to set a vision and welcome the “long game” as a leader.
• Explore the importance of establishing a culture, bridging difference, and remaining true to yourself and your values.
• Gain insights into the sacrifices and intrinsic rewards of serving others through a leadership role.

Susan Eisenhower, Chairman Emerita of the Eisenhower Institute at Gettysburg College, will interview Bill Heyman ’74, P’13, Founder and CEO of Heyman Associates. With his diverse network and a passion for the work of executive search, Heyman has been responsible for filling top communications roles for some of the most recognized brands in the world. He was awarded the prestigious Larry Foster Award for Integrity in Public Communication in February 2021. Heyman joined the Gettysburg College Board of Trustees in 2021.
