Whether you've studied economics or not, the chaos in the financial market is daunting.

To help you weather the storm, we are providing a list of NSB speakers who can give you the knowledge and expertise to help you understand the current situation and lead you to success.
Linda Nazareth can prepare you for a new economic era. An expert in economics, Nazareth was warning the world about the pending U.S. recession one year before analysts admitted there was a problem. Now, she's dissecting the global economy to bring answers to the questions everyone is asking: how did this all happen and what should we expect next? In 2007, Nazareth published The Leisure Economy, which forecast a sea change for the North American economy. She is also the on-air economist for Business News Network. Let Nazareth explain why less is more, and why your career and spending decisions are now more important than ever.

According to McMurdy, the recent economic events placed governments back in the limelight after diminishing their roles for the past 20 years.
