“There is a big shift from goods consumption towards experiences. In that sense, it’s no real surprise that the global financial crisis had such a big impact on manufactured goods. Aside from the United States, the global demand is pretty weak. People are perhaps underestimating, especially in the case of China, the demand for experiences, which include things like cruises and air travel.”

“Inflation is a monetary phenomenon. The issue is whether the dominant factor is money supply or money demand, which means you can print money and velocity still collapses. Velocity has been declining for 13 years. The Federal Reserve can print, the European Central Bank can print, the Bank of Japan can print, but it doesn’t end up causing price inflation.”

Richard Hokenson is a highly acclaimed keynote speaker. People often think of demographics (which is defined as the science of population) as the equivalent of watching glaciers melt, i.e. changes occur at such a slow pace as to border on being irrelevant to business or investment decisions. The key to his success as a keynote speaker is to make his conclusions relevant to today as well as the future.
One of the things that makes Richard’s consultant management service so popular is the way in which he approaches things. He doesn’t try and take the reigns of your business and force you to think in specific ways. Instead, he plays to his role as a consultant. You’re still in charge, but he’s there to provide additional advice and support when you need it. He won’t undermine your decisions, he’ll simply analyse them and tell you how they can be improved.
