Plenary Session - Where is Our Economy Headed?
Description
Dr. Guy Berger, Chief Economist, LinkedIn
As LinkedIn's Chief Economist, one of Guy Berger's passions is understanding what is going on in the labor market and helping ensure that "what" is harnessed benefits the billions of people who rely on the labor market to make better lives for themselves.
In his role on the Economic Graph team, Guy looks at LinkedIn's treasure trove of data to tease out trends and patterns that often can't be found or measured elsewhere. Whether it's measuring skills gaps, noticing which economic characteristics make a city unique, or trying to catch turning points in the business cycle, there are many interesting stories to tell.
