Some Predictions

  • The defense topline will decline by 10% before the 2024 election.
  • Small business set-aside goals will be missed in FY23.
  • The House will flip control after the 2022 elections. The Senate will not flip.
  • The halls of Congress will not re-open to the public. A security protocol to enter buildings will align with what is required in other federal buildings.
  • You have a bigger personnel issue in your company than you know as the workforce is completely rethinking the parameters and conditions of work, and money won’t fix it. Failure to invest in your workforce is a wedge.
  • Facebook will be broken up as a regulated communications platform.
  • An online business platform will replace LinkedIn as LinkedIn continues to look more like Facebook.

All proceeds from the book will go to the Freedom Fighter Outdoors, a charitable organization supporting injured veterans.
