John Howard\'s leadership, determination and vision are hallmarks of a career navigated during an era of unprecedented prosperity and change.
Respected World Leader: As prime minister of Australia for four terms, John Howard provided a global approach to leadership. He delivered economic vision and strategies for international security that raised Australia’s profile on the world stage while gaining the respect and gratitude of the world. Howard discusses the role of world leaders in a new century, detailing steps for handling the growing concerns of globalization and global economics, the environment, and threats to international security.
Global Challenges: A leader of tremendous courage and character, Howard understands that security at home requires vigilance abroad. Under his leadership, Australia was a consistent and resolute ally in the War on Terror. Howard discusses the need to build stability in less-fortunate countries, maintain strong international relationships with allies and manage immigration as key factors in strengthening security.
China and the Global Economy: Under Howard’s leadership, Australia’s economy grew every year, even during the Asian financial crisis that devastated its neighbors. His administration pushed for unprecedented expansion in Australia’s economic relationship with China by initiating negotiations for a free trade agreement with China. Howard candidly describes why he forged ahead with these efforts and what the economic future—for both the Pacific Rim and the world—may hold.
