Look into the construction crystal ball with leading economist, Anirban Basu
Anirban Basu isn’t physic nor does he own a crystal ball. However, some may consider the knowledge he possesses close to having a sixth sense. After he earned exceptional college test scores in micro and macroeconomics, he learned he had a knack for helping organizations make better business decisions by using his knowledge in economics. He has been recognized on two occasions as one of Maryland’s 50 most influential people and named one of Baltimore region’s 20 most powerful business leaders. Basu is the current CEO of Sage Policy Group, Inc. and teaches global strategy at John Hopkins University. We are pleased he took time out of his busy schedule to share his expertise during one of our recent podcast episodes, Construction Economics and the State of the Industry. What did we learn from Basu and his economics ESP?
