2020 was quite a year. In this webinar, we will explore all the changes that have occurred in the economy and what they mean for our future.

The pandemic, government responses, consumer trends, burgeoning opportunities, and lagging sectors will shape the trends ahead and drive our tactics and strategies. The United States, global economies and the industries most important to attendees will be examined with these forces and their implications for the future.

We will also:
-Assess economic prospects for 2021 and into 2022.
-Look at a system of key leading indicators proven to signal cyclical turns in the economy and markets.
-Present clear, actionable Management Objectives™ that are right for the coming years as we adapt to the ‘new normal.’ The one thing that will not change is that successful businesses will constantly have to adapt to a sea of changing circumstances.
