Economic headlines move fast. Strategy requires context.

In this episode of the Measure Success Podcast, Carl J. Cox speaks with economist Dr. Bill Connerly about the trends shaping business decisions today. The conversation covers tariffs, supply chain strategy, artificial intelligence, workforce shifts, and energy markets.

The episode also explores the real impact of AI in business. The greatest productivity gains will come from specialized tools built for specific problems, not just general AI chat systems.
