Window on Productivity: How Much Do We Need? How Much Will We Get?

After years of weak growth in productivity, recent measurements show a modest recovery. What is driving this, and how important is it? Will productivity finally begin to regain ground under the influence of the New Digital Economy? Will this help to resolve the increased labor shortages businesses are facing? What needs to happen to sustain this recovery?

Insights from this webcast:

  • How the emergence of the New Digital Economy will help the productivity recovery
  • How productivity destroys and creates jobs, with the net result still uncertain
  • How innovation, education and training policy can help to sustain the productivity recovery

Who Should Attend: Executives and practitioners interested in current events/policies and how they impact  business
