It's day three in Davos. Interestingly, the tone started to change just slightly today. While the Forum continues for another couple of days, this is my last day of reporting live from Davos. I am thrilled with what we accomplished. Today I interviewed everyone from Muhtar Kent at Coca-Cola to Jamie Dimon at JP Morgan Chase. What a day! Muhtar Kent told me about their plans for 2009 ... read more
The behind-the-scenes pictures really tell the story! This just shows you how nuts we are behind the scenes. When Yvette, my producer, is doing my hair, all has failed. For those who know me really well, I could care less about how I look. I am a research nut/nerd. I'd rather read voraciously and know what I am talking about than look good. A bit of a ... read more
Back to where I left off…
After the Congress Center, we made our way back into town for dinner. We had local favorites wienerschnitzel and rosti. Mmmmmm!!!! It was delicious. By that time, starvation had set in. I also had Monsteiner Bier, an awesome local beer. (Note: it's made in the highest brewery in Europe, at 1625 meters above sea level.) Happily, my migraine headache from lack of ... read more

So much to catch up on I hardly no where to begin. Let's pick up where we left off.
Last night we walked over to the Congress Center (about a five minute walk from where I am broadcasting). It was quite the spectacle! Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin spoke to hundreds of executives and world leaders. It took place in the biggest meeting hall in the forum and the crowds were overflowing. ... read more
It was deja-vu all over again. Arriving in Zurich to a HUGE hug from Heinz. Do you remember Heinz from last year? He lives in Davos. We rent out his friend’s apartment. He is the loveliest man. He picked me up from Zurich so that I could make it to Davos in time for air this morning. We caught up on the past year during our two-plus hour drive. When we arrived just past 10:30 p.m., we stopped by ... read more
One year ago today I wrote the first Glick Report on my inaugural visit to Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum. It was entitled, "Welcome to the Glick Report." In that first blog I talked about the thrill and excitement of attending this world-renowned event and what I hoped to learn from my interviews. If you get a chance to look at that blog, it'll help refresh your memory about ... read more
Sorry this took me so long to finally post. I arrived back from Washington D.C. at 2 a.m. on Wednesday after covering the inauguration. Slept two hours and came back to work. Needed a day to recover.
I know that you've probably read countless stories about Inauguration Day. This is is my version of what it was like covering the Inauguration of the 44th President of the United States. (Oh and in ... read more
