"A crisis is a terrible thing to waste." -- Paul Romer, Economist
In today's economy, there is no business as usual. Organizations most likely to survive and thrive are using the downturn as an opportunity to take a fresh look at what's important, and to try new ways to achieve it.

The question is: will you emerge as one of the winners?


PA Consulting Group and the BABC Chicago are proud to present this interactive session. The discussion will cover the origins of the crisis through to its current impact on markets and the businesses that comprise them. More importantly, it will open discussion on what business leaders can do to enhance the likelihood of survival and success in this extraordinary environment.

Mark Thomas
Head of PA's Strategy practice and author of "The Complete CEO" and "Surviving and Thriving in the Economic Crisis."

Martin Evans
Professor of Economics in Georgetown's Department of Economics and Professor of Finance in the McDonough School of Business.
