Louis E. Caldera, a Senior Lecturer at Harvard Business School, chaired the Panama Canal Commission the year the Canal was returned to Panama, 1999. He was also the first (and only) Latino to serve as Secretary of the Army. He talks on issues ranging from President Trump's threat to "take back" the Canal to the implications of the ban of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) on the nation's military and security.
