Linda Nazareth is an economist, a futurist and a respected authority on the future of work. Her most requested keynotes combine elements of economics and megatrends with a view to how organizations can be ahead of  the changes ahead.  Linda’s clients have ranged across all industrial sectors as well as governments and industry associations and have included everyone from American Express through to the Economist Magazine.

Linda’s career has taken some non-traditional turns for someone in her field. Her first jobs were as a government economist where she specialized in labor market planning, which was followed by a stint at a major financial institution where she spent years as a Senior Economist. Wanting to change things up while she could, she lobbied to have a job created for her on Business News Network (BNN, Canada’s answer to CNBC) while it was a start-up and spent a decade on-air as their in-house economist.

During her time on BNN, Linda started writing books and giving keynote presentations, and eventually left daily broadcasting to give those passions her full-time attention. As well, she is also a columnist for the Globe and Mail, a Senior Fellow at think-tank the Macdonald Laurier Institute and the Host of the podcast Work and the Future.
