Kenneth Goldstein
Ken Goldstein has been an economist at The Conference Board since 1971. His principal responsibilities include analyzing current trends in labor market activity and forecasting near-term economic development.
Specifically, he has maintained The Conference Boards Help-Wanted Index—a proxy measure for changes in labor demand.

For the last three decades, Goldstein has been writing about the state of the economy in Conference Board publications, such as The Conference Board Review, Business Cycle Indicators, and StraightTalk. He has frequently given economic presentations to both large and small groups in both the U.S. and Canada.
For many years, Goldstein has been involved in The Conference Board program to coordinate the training of young business executives who spend a year at the Board, learning and developing analytical skills and a working knowledge of the U.S. economy.
Goldstein holds degrees from the New School for Social Research and from Rutgers University. He taught courses in statistics and economics at Upsala College in New Jersey. His interest in economic education extends to participating in the New York Council on Economic Education.
