Economic Development Secrets

This month's special guest is Mark Lautman, Principal at Lautman Economic Architecture, LLC. He is the author of "When the Boomers Bail," which discusses how the powerful combination of economic and demographic forces change the job creation game and make it more difficult for community leaders to manage their local economies. Along with a group of colleagues, Mark co-founded the Community Economics Lab, a not-for-profit think tank focused on understanding these new forces and developing new approaches to economic and workforce development. In this podcast episode, Mark shares a new algorithm for analyzing your community and engaging stakeholders.
