Austan Goolsbee analyzes the key economic challenges facing the US and the importance of innovative solutions that will keep businesses competitive. As the nation looks to increase growth on the long term, continuing uncertainty over economic policy remains a critical issue at the forefront of corporate executives' minds. Addressing the fiscal challenges that lie ahead for America, he explores how focusing on spurring investment and innovation and improving US exports will have long-term positive impact - while a failure to act risks a lasting period of painful economic stagnation. Commenting on key challenges including attracting top talent, protecting innovation in a global marketplace, as well as macroeconomic factors like lingering high unemployment, the burdens of regulation, and the increasing federal deficit, he analyzes the nation's economic health and disseminates complex economic policy with his insightful humor. Austan will help you decide how the policy decisions in Washington influence the middle-class, the competitiveness of various industries, and how it will impact you and your company.
