Seminars: The Economic Outlook Group

Business Intelligence Seminars

Where is the economy really headed, and how will it affect your business?
Is this a good time to hire more people, increase inventories and expand capacity --- or delay such actions?
What is the outlook for consumer and business spending, inflation, and interest rates?
Is this the right time to raise new capital?
Which foreign markets will grow the fastest, and which will be the laggards?

These are questions business leaders and money managers ask daily. The most successful managers get their answers by tracking and correctly interpreting "forward-looking" economic indicators. These valuable measures help leaders better anticipate turning points in their business. But how do you locate and decipher these important early-warning indicators? Which real-time economic reports should YOU follow?

That's where we come in. Executives from around the world have selected our seminars to better understand how key economic indicators can be used as forecasting tools. Attendees bring their laptops for live, hands-on training to see how publicly available online economic data can be leveraged for business benefit. Our program helps you develop the skills to identify, analyze and gain valuable insights from key leading U.S. and foreign economic indicators. As a business leader, you will learn to assess more accurately the outlook for the economy, consumer demand, business investments, currency values, and foreign trade. Our short but intensive seminar has two primary goals: To show how such indicators can keep you ahead of the business curve and, second, to make decision makers more comfortable using economic indicators in their offices.

Best of all, these sessions are designed for those with little or no prior experience dealing with economic data. You won't need a Ph.d in economics or statistics to benefit from this seminar. Discussions are held in plain, non-technical, English. Attendees in the past have been business leaders from around the world who work in manufacturing, retailing, tourism, marketing, transportation, human resources and money management.
