 Susan Eisenhower is president of the Eisenhower Group, Inc, which provides strategic counsel on political, business and public affairs projects. She has consulted for Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies doing business in the emerging markets of the former Soviet Union and for a number of major institutions and companies engaged in the energy field. Eisenhower also serves as chairman of the Eisenhower Institute’s Leadership and Public Policy Programs. She had served as the Eisenhower Institute’s president twice, and later as chairman. During that time, she became known for her work in the former Soviet Union and in the energy field.
She has testified before the Senate Armed Services and Senate Budget Committees on policy toward the region. She was also appointed to the National Academy of Sciences’ standing Committee on International Security and Arms Control, where she served for eight years. She has written extensively on nuclear and space issues and in 2000, a year before September 11, she co-edited a book, “Islam and Central Asia,” which carried the prescient subtitle, "An Enduring Legacy or an Evolving Threat?"
Over the years, Eisenhower has served on many government task forces. In the spring of 2000, the Secretary of Energy appointed her to a blue ribbon task force, the Baker-Cutler Commission, to evaluate U.S. funded nuclear non-proliferation programs in Russia. Since that time, she has served as an advisor on two other DOE studies; one on the threat of nuclear terrorism and the other a blue ribbon panel on the future of nuclear energy. In 2001, after two terms on the NASA Advisory Council, she was appointed to the International Space Station Management and Cost Evaluation Task Force, which analyzed ISS management and cost overruns. She has served as an Academic Fellow of the International Peace and Security program of Carnegie Corporation of New York, as a director of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and as an Advisor to John Hopkins’ Nitze School of Advanced International Studies.
