The Northwestern JD-MBA Association is pleased to host a discussion with Nicholas D. Chabraja, retired Chairman and CEO of General Dynamics Corporation. A graduate of Northwestern University (WCAS 64, Law 67), Mr. Chabraja began his career at Jenner & Block before joining General Dynamics as its General Counsel in 1993. After four years in that role, he became Chairman and CEO and served in the position until his retirement in 2009.

Mr. Chabraja's training as an attorney and his success in running General Dynamics make him uniquely suited to discuss the continued convergence of the legal and business worlds. During his tenure as CEO, Mr. Chabraja utilized a keen understanding of both disciplines in order to transform the company and better align it with the evolving needs of militaries around the world. As a result of these efforts, sales increased from $4 billion in 1997 to $32 billion in 2009, with General Dynamics most recently moving up to #69 on the Fortune 500 ranking. We hope that you'll be able to join us for this insightful event.
