On this episode of the Business and Society podcast, three professors from the Ross School of Business discuss notable trends from 2023 and the current challenges of 2024 from an economic, behavioral, and political perspective. The major topic of discussion is the friction between the real economy – lowering interest rates, low unemployment rates, and inflation reduction – and consumers perceived experience. The panel shares insights on the discord between the perception and reality of the economy and what it means coming into a U.S. presidential election year.
