So, when it comes to figuring out how to change your business to make an honest living in this environment, where do you even start?
To help focus people’s priorities for change, we went to 10 of the industry’s top decision-makers and asked them: “What is the most important issue facing the industry in 2020? (And why?).” We followed up with a question about what the industry needs to do in order to address the top issue that they’ve identified.
