Jason Furman, former chief economist for President Obama, offers valuable insights on the geoeconomic outlook, business trends, and the future of globalism. As the Aetna Professor of the Practice of Economic Policy at Harvard University, Furman has conducted extensive research in various areas such as fiscal policy, tax policy, health economics, and macroeconomics. He regularly contributes to the Wall Street Journal and frequently appears as a commentator on Bloomberg and CNBC. With a Ph.D. in Economics from Harvard University, Furman is an expert in his field. He is available to discuss automation, artificial intelligence, the Biden agenda, global economic outlook, and inequality. His expertise and experience make him a valuable resource for organizations seeking to understand and navigate these complex issues.
Drawing on his role as the chief economist for the President of the United States during a time of tumultuous change, Jason Furman outlines the geopolitical and economic trends and developments every organization needs to know. As instability, migration and security concerns continue and trade agreements and treaties between nations face a tenuous new era, Furman offers experienced counsel to businesses concerned about their place in the global environment.
There are a lot of buzzwords and phrases to consider in relation to diversity: “bringing your whole self”, “agency,” “speaking your truth.” This speech is designed to take your organization past those words and phrases and into the space where true action takes place. Moreover, it is designed to bring your organization past the phase of creating a diverse environment and into the much harder work of actually maintaining one.
"I’m a good person, so I can’t discriminate against others." Many of us may have friends or co-workers who’ve uttered the statement above. Or, perhaps we’ve had a similar thought cross our mind as well. This speech is designed to get the audience past their personal feelings and into the landscape of unintended actions and policies that are, in effect, racist.
Asking people to alter what they do is one thing. Asking them to change how they think is quite another. Additionally, asking them to consistently take the small, but persistent steps that lead to true culture change can be exceptionally difficult. As a result, even the most well-meaning organizations can fall back to the status quo on diversity matters. This presentation is designed to provide you with the steps necessary to engender the constant actions and daily dedication from your employees that lead to a high-functioning organization and truly changed workplace culture.
Join Jason Furman, the former chief economist for President Obama and Aetna Professor at Harvard, as he delves into the geoeconomic outlook, business trends, and the future of globalism. Drawing on his extensive research and expertise, Furman will explore critical topics such as automation, AI, and global economic challenges.
