The Ambassador should know. Nominated by President-elect Donald J. Trump to serve in China during one of the most challenging periods in recent U.S. – China history\, and before that\, earning the distinction of being the longest-serving governor in U.S. history\, which included a time when Iowa weathered some of that state’s worst economic turmoil\, Ambassador Branstad has built a legacy of faithful service by leading during difficult circumstances. He has done so through faith\, hard work and integrity. \nUnconventional Business Network and Faith at Work Iowa are honored to have Ambassador Branstad share his unconventional faith + work story. Whether you are a native Iowan or reside anywhere else in the world\, Ambassador Branstad will inspire you with his stories of navigating through challenging situations with Godly patience and wisdom. \nAbout This Speaker \nBorn and raised on a northcentral Iowa farm\, Ambassador Terry Branstad learned early the values of honesty\, hard work and the importance of public service. \nAmbassador Branstad was elected three times to the Iowa House of Representatives\, as Iowa’s lieutenant governor in 1978\, and as Iowa’s youngest governor in 1983. As the state’s chief executive and longest serving governor (1983-2017\, nonconsecutive) then Governor Branstad weathered some of Iowa’s worst economic turmoil during the farm crisis of the 1980s\, while helping lead the state’s resurgence of a booming economy in the 1990s. \nOn December 7\, 2016\, Governor Branstad announced that he had accepted the nomination from President-Elect Donald Trump to serve as Ambassador of the United States to the People’s Republic of China. \nAmbassador Branstad served as U.S. Ambassador to China during one of the most challenging periods in U.S.-China history since the two countries re-established diplomatic relations in 1979. Two of his greatest achievements were the signing of the historic Phase One Trade Agreement between the U.S. and China in January of 2020\, and successfully lobbying the Chinese government to stem the flow of fentanyl into America. \nAmbassador Branstad has received recognition from many U.S. presidents. Prior to serving as U.S. Ambassador after President Trump’s nomination\, Branstad also served as the Co-Chair of the Council of Governors appointed by President Barack Obama\, as Commissioner and Chairman respectively of the White House Fellows Program and Commission for Excellence in Special Education appointed by George W. Bush\, and as Trustee of the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation appointed by Ronald Regan. \nAmbassador Branstad earned a B.A. from the University of Iowa and a J.D. from Drake University Law School. \nHe\, and his wife\, Chris\, have been married since 1972 and have three children and eight grandchildren.
