Ever wonder how the economy impacts the world of sports beyond just team revenues and profits? In this session, attendees will explore how global macroeconomic forces shape the competitive landscape of sports and influence championship outcomes. This course will examine a detailed case study demonstrating how macroeconomic events originating from the other side of the planet led to the downfall of the Chicago Blackhawks hockey dynasty. Additionally, we will discuss valuable lessons learned and strategies for sports teams and leagues to prepare for similar economic challenges.
Alumni, friends, prospective students and their parents, and anyone else on campus are welcome to come participate in these explorations of fascinating topics.
