The U.S. economy is in upheaval, at once burning brightly and at risk of foundering under the weight of COVID-19. The pandemic has wreaked havoc on labor markets, supply chains and consumer demand, causing inflation to rise at the highest rate since 1982. The Fed has big decisions to make about interest rate increases. Businesses are struggling to adapt. Millions of people have quit their jobs, part of a sudden workforce shift known as the Great Resignation. With markets at record levels, investors are waiting for a correction, and a recession, that may arrive sooner or later – just like that couch you ordered six months ago. Join us as experts discuss this unprecedented uncertainty.
This program is presented in partnership with the HRMAC Institute at the Executives’ Club of Chicago. The HRMAC Institute comprises Chicagoland’s largest and most vibrant community of professionals who are passionate about talent and building the best organizations of the future.
Notice: Until further notice, the Executives’ Club of Chicago will require all attending Exec Club in-person events to be fully vaccinated and show proof of vaccination (either through electronic copy, photo copy or photo).
