Talking with our advisers, readers, and viewers the consensus was that a broadbrush review of the challenges facing corporate America especially members of the board and senior executives in 2024 might be a worthwhile topic of discussion. We cover current politics, economics, geopolitical and domestic issues. We do not render opinions but rather highlight the potential for these issues to impact your business.
- Politics: We continue with the recommendation "No politics in the workplace." The campaigns may reinforce divisiveness and possibly introduce more aggressive AI based media attack ads.
- Economics: Most economic indicators are heading in the right direction. The growth in consumer debt is an element to monitor and sources of refinancing should be investigated beforehand.
- Geopolitical: Ukraine and Middle East will continue to be areas of global concern. Russia, China, Iran and North Korea will continue to be as disruptive as possible both tactically and strategically.
- Domestic issues: Forget the nuances of politicking, immigration, climate and now healthcare are strategic issues that are real and demand the focused attention of leadership public and private. Now!
