The vast majority of businesses are sensitive to changes in the economic landscape. However, most smaller and midsized firms are ill-equipped to measure economic data and apply it to make business decisions. This breakout session will discuss in detail the application of the rates-of-change methodology and leading indicators. Attendees will gain an understanding of how to pick leading indicators and track economic data against their internal business data in order to make better business decisions on labor, capital expansions, inventory, etc.
