Eight vehicles have been set alight since the beginning of the unprotected wage strike in July.

An executive is a key player in a business of any size: someone who is able to balance the complexities of their industry with the needs of their company. They're someone with deep experience, who can lead a team and contribute to one. And they work tirelessly to make sure the business is positioned to succeed, both now and in the future. But who's doing that for the executive?As an executive, you'll have access to a much wider range of compensation packages, from equity to call options to variable performance-based bonuses. Your income will be greater and more diverse than the average Joe or Jane. You need a financial plan to match, and advisors skilled enough to adapt that plan as your career evolves. In fact, you'll need a team of people: CPAs, investment bankers, tax attorneys, estate lawyers. But most of all, you'll need an expert private banker to run the show. You need Mary Katherine Franklin, EVP and Director of Private Banking, and Jamie Burns, Regional Executive of Private Banking from the Cadence Private Banking leadership team. So that's who we've brought you!Think of it like a football team. The most important person on the field is your quarterback, who reads the defense, makes adjustments and gets their teammates the ball. That's your private banker. On this episode, Jamie and Mary Katherine talk about quarterbacking executive financial plans, how no plan is one-size-fits-all, and what you need to prepare to make sure you get the most out of the process. So, join our all-pro squad as we perfectly execute the executive financial plan.Highlights: What is private banking? (2:21) What's different about executives?

Metro Atlanta Chamber SVP and Chief Economist Tom Cunningham on Georgia Business Radio Tom Cunningham,​ SVP and Chief Economist Metro Atlanta Chamber Thomas J. Cunningham is Senior Vice President and the Chief Economist for the Metro Atlanta Chamber (MAC). Tom joined the MAC in July 2015 following a 30-year career at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. He is a specialist in open economy macroeconomic policy and regional analysis. At the MAC, he manages an internal team that supports the research and advocacy roles of the economic development and public policy departments. After starting his career at the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta as an economist in the Macropolicy group, Tom served at various times as associate director of research, interim director of research, vice president for the Regional group where he was also responsible for the Latin American group, and acting head of the Finance group. He served on the Bank's Personnel, Information Technology, and Risk Management Committees and as a member of the Federal Reserve System's Information Security Group and Technology Services Council. He also was the acting director of, and helped establish, the Bank's Center for Real Estate Analytics. When Dr. Cunningham retired from the Fed, his title was Vice President, Senior Economist and Regional Executive. A native of Reedley, California, he received a bachelor's degree, summa cum laude, in economics from California State University, Fresno. He earned a master's degree, a master of philosophy, and a PhD in economics from Columbia University. He previously worked as an economics instructor at Barnard College at Columbia University and as an adjunct instructor at Iona College, Agnes Scott College and Emory University. He attended the executive development program at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School and is a member of Leadership Atlanta's class of 2018. Dr. Cunningham has published numerous professional articles and is a member of the American Economic Association, the Western Economic Association, and the Southern Economic Association. Topics to Discuss: National Employment Situation report contains some solid numbers, but mixed headlines. The solid numbers are in job gains, where the nation added 213,000 jobs, well above the market expectation of around 190,000. Revisions to the two previous months added another 37,000 jobs. The mixed part of the report is that the headline is the unemployment rate (U3) ticked up from 3.8% to 4.0%. The expectation was for no change. This was mostly due to an increase in the labor force participation, which moved up 0.2 percentage points after being essentially unchanged since February. At this point the economy needs the additional workers, so this is a fundamentally good thing. The broader measure of labor underutilization (U6) also rose 0.2 percentage points to 7.8%. Average hourly earnings rose 2.7% from a year ago, slightly below expectations, but about in line with recent history. Jobs gains were led by professional and business services, followed by manufacturing, which had a solid 30,000 job addition, mostly in durable goods. Strength was also seen in health care, construction, and mining. Retail was the only sector with a notable loss of jobs (-22,000), but that did not offset last month's gain of 25,000. Other sectors were essentially unchanged. All in all, a pretty good report, despite an easily misinterpreted rise in unemployment. ​Media Links: ​Web Site:   www.MetroAtlantaChamber.com Guest Linkedin Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-cunningham-6027134 Georgia Business Radio Interviewing industry and thought leaders with compelling stories.

In this episode, Keith and Christine bring in their guest, fellow Devita & Hancock partner, and Regional Executive Recruiter Richard “Cutlets of Fury” Teear. He is an experienced restaurant operator with over 30 years of experience running full-service, casual, and fine dining establishments. Initially, he worked at construction and ran his own business for over 15 years. They exchange Olive Garden stories, Richard's hurdles in recruitment, and their thoughts on incentivizing new hires and the vaccine rollout. [00:00:30] Introducing “Cutlets of Fury” Richard Teear [00:03:07] Richard and Keith's Olive Garden Stories [00:08:42] Richard's Biggest Hurdle in Recruiting and Getting the Right People [00:12:15] Now's the Time to Get Your Dream Job (with a Signing Bonus) [00:15:45] Incentivizing People to Get Back to Work [00:16:38] Glorification of the Restaurant and Culinary World [00:19:53] Vaccination as a Personal and Political Decision [00:30:32] Richard's Broken Mugs [00:33:52] Final Notes Richard's Biggest Hurdle in Recruiting and Getting the Right People From the client end, Richard sees how people still want to do the recruiting themselves. But from the candidate standpoint, especially during the pandemic, potential hires are opting out of jobs with good pay and benefits outside of the four walls of the office to reconnect and spend more time with their families. Passion in the Restaurant and QSR Industry Keith shares how there's almost a glorification of the culinary industry as more younger people sign up for culinary school. But the reality of the industry could not be further from what people see on The Food Network. People in the industry must do the nitty-gritty stuff: wash dishes despite having a four-year degree, work 6-7 days a week including holidays and weekends, and barely have time to see family. Despite being in the industry, Keith and Christine often discourage their peers to enter the world of culinary and restaurant management. However, their passion and fulfillment in their line of work is what has kept them afloat and satisfied throughout the years of their career. Incentivizing People to Get Back to Work One of the biggest issues that restaurant owners are currently facing during the pandemic is manpower and labor. They have now resorted to offering signing bonuses ranging from $500-$1000 and even giving out Apple iPhones to attract potential hires and get people back to work. Vaccinations: Your Body, Your Choice Keith, Christine, and Richard are on the same page when it comes to vaccines: your body, your choice. They believe business owners incentivizing and requiring vaccines among employees in order to be branded as “fully-vaccinated” simply adds to the politicization of it all.

We spoke up and down about the economy - how COVID has impacted certain sectors (and how they have or have not bounced back), how that will have a ripple effect on real estate markets, and how manufacturing and workforce retention are also affected. You don't have to be an economics major to track this one - Matt makes it easy (and, honestly, kind of uplifting). Listen now, and learn something new!

From the US perspective, there are two predictable economic pillars we have always relied on: Oil and The Fed. We look at the price and supply of oil to calibrate our economic position in the global economy, and we rely on The Fed to insure our economic security. In the past 2 months we have had the pillar of oil completely yanked away from the foundation of our financial institution. Is another pillar, even more central to the US economy, The Fed really immutable? Starkly, is Doomsday possible?      The Fed Whenever we get into any kind of real serious financial trouble – like the recession in 2008, or the economic slow-down we're in now – we're confident that the world is not coming to an end. The reason we're so certain that the financial system is not going to crash, is because we believe The Fed is not going to let it. The Federal Reserve is the central bank of the United States. It's actually a series of 12 Federal Reserve banks. Here in Louisiana we're in the Federal Reserve's 6th District, anchored by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. The Vice President & Regional Executive of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta is Adrienne Slack. In this conversation Peter Ricchiuti takes Adrienne back to a statement by the Chairman of the Fed, Jerome Powell, on April 9th. Powell said, "The Fed will provide up to $2.3 trillion in loans to support the economy. This funding will assist households and employers of all sizes, and bolster the ability of state and local governments to deliver critical services during the coronavirus pandemic.” In other words, on April 9th The Fed gave the United States $2.3 trillion. The Fed is not actually printing money, but on April 9th it did in fact create $2.3 trillion that didn't exist on April 8th. Adrienne explains how this works, and discusses the bigger question: could gthere be a day when it stops working? Oil Nothing sums up the strange and unprecedented economic times we're living in more than a simple, three-letter word: Oil. Maybe there's a fiction writer somewhere who imagined the day oil became a worthless commodity that you had to pay someone to haul away, like garbage. But it's doubtful there is an economist on earth who saw that day coming. Or even the days we're living in now, where we're discussing what's called “$20 oil.” That is, oil that sells for $20 a barrel. What does it cost to produce a barrel of oil? In Louisiana the common wisdom has always been, around $60. Over the last couple of years though, the oil field seems to have been staying alive with prices of around $35 a barrel. Is $20 oil finally going to kill off the energy business in Louisiana? Keep in mind that the reason this matters is, the energy industry in Louisiana employs over a quarter of a million people. And it pays over $2billion in annual state taxes. So whatever happens to the oil business in Louisiana affects all of us. One good thing about a business that is continually in a cycle of boom or bust, is predictability. A bust is always followed at some point by a boom. Or it has been. This time, though, it looks like we're going to need a more robust survival strategy than “Wait for better times to come around.” Do we have that strategy? Gifford Briggs is the lucky person who gets to answer that question. Gifford is President of the Louisiana Oil and Gas Association. Crisis Leadership No matter which part of Louisiana you live in, you've survived disasters. From catastrophic downturns in the oil business, to biblical floods, and storms. One of the most cataclysmic of these in our lifetime was Hurricane Katrina. New Orleans was brought to its knees in a way that, till it happened, had only existed as a theoretical “worst case scenario.” Beyond the threat to life itself, hardship like that - and the crisis we're going through now - creates enormous suffering. It also creates heroes. After Katrina, one of those New Orleans heroes was Blake Haney. Blake is the owner of a business called Dirty Coast. Dirty Coast makes hip T-shirts with a New Orleans flavor. After Katrina, they also made a sticker. The sticker said, “Be A New Orleanian wherever you are.” Dirty Coast was then a small store. But demand was so great for those stickers that Blake gave away around one million of them. That slogan united a far-flung diaspora of New Orleanians and captured the resilience that directly led to the rebuilding of New Orleans. Today, Dirty Coast has 4 outlets and a significant e-commerce component. Blake Haney still runs the company. He's also the co-founder of locally.com, a nationwide e-commerce site that drives consumers to brick and mortar stores, and Bayou Brands, an e-commerce and product development consultancy.  There are very few thought-leaders who have actually been on the front-line of rebuilding a shattered economy. Blake is one of them. Can the lessons he learned  last time be applied now to rebuild the local, state and national economy? Photos by Jill Lafleur and more info is at our website.
