Rudolph W. Giuliani, former mayor of New York City, will be the keynote speaker at the President’s Breakfast and Annual Meeting, part of the 43rd annual National Truck Equipment Association (NTEA) convention in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Giuliani’s address will take place Thursday, March 8 from 7:30-9:15 a m.. The convention and The Work Truck Show 2007 will be held at the Indiana Convention Center & RCA Dome March 6-9.

Giuliani will deliver a message on leadership to the hundreds of fleet managers, truck equipment distributors, manufacturers and others who attend the breakfast. Giuliani was mayor of New York City when terrorists crashed planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. He was widely lauded for his leadership during those frightening times. Giuliani was named Person of the Year by Time magazine, knighted by the Queen of England, dubbed “Rudy the Rock” by French President Jacques Chirac and presented with the Ronald Reagan Presidential Freedom Award.

Limited by New York City law to two terms as mayor, he founded Giuliani Partners in January 2002, quickly establishing the professional services firm as a leader in emergency preparedness, public safety, leadership during crises and financial management. Giuliani was recognized in spring 2002 as Consultant of the Year by Consulting magazine. In May 2005, he joined the law firm of Bracewell & Patterson and was named a partner. Now known as Bracewell & Giuliani, the 60-year-old firm has approximately 400 lawyers practicing in nine offices worldwide.
