SUMMARY:Breakfast of Champions - James A. Wood
DESCRIPTION:Business owners have been so beaten up during the Great Recession that a lot of us wish we just had a crystal ball.  If we had that we could intelligently plan how to steer our companies\, instead of being batted around like a pinball.  \n\n \n\nWell\, we don't have a crystal ball to give you\, but we might have the next best thing.  James Wood\, Director of the University of Utah's Bureau of Economic and Business Research\, will be the featured speaker at our next Breakfast of Champions\, and this is a presentation you won't want to miss.\n\n \n\nHow would you like to know what's coming next economically in our area?  Where will the growth be?  What opportunities should you head toward now?  Are there areas that are losing strength that you should be cautious of?  What's happening locally that will impact your business specifically?  The answers to these questions and many others will be available for you in this forecast for the next 12 to 18 months.     \n\n \n\nPeople who hear his forecasts once\, return year after year to hear him again.  Join us April 23rd to find out why.  But be prepared to join his ranks of fans.\n\n\n\nJames Wood joined the Bureau in 1975.  He graduated from the University of Utah in Finance in 1967 and did graduate work in economics at the University of Utah from 1970 to 1974.  From 1975 to 2002 he was a senior research analyst at the Bureau and since 2002 has served as Director.
