LT. GENERAL (Ret.) H.R. McMaster, one of the nation’s foremost experts on leadership and global affairs, will headline the Chair’s Lunch during Western Growers’ 100th Annual Meeting on Tuesday, November 10, from 11:45 a.m. to 1:45 p.m. at the Grand Wailea in Maui.
McMaster will join Western Growers Chair Rob Yraceburu for a fireside chat exploring today’s geopolitical landscape, global economic challenges and the leadership required to navigate an increasingly complex world. As agriculture continues to be shaped by international trade, supply chain disruptions and geopolitical uncertainty, attendees will gain valuable insights into the global forces influencing the specialty crop industry.

He is currently the Fouad and Michelle Ajami Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University and a lecturer at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business.
McMaster is the bestselling author of Dereliction of Duty, Battlegrounds: The Fight to Defend the Free World and At War with Ourselves: My Tour of Duty in the Trump White House.
