Episode notes
In this episode of Elevate Charlotte, Mark Odell and Maria Vastola explore how businesses are planning for growth in an environment defined by uncertainty. From shifting supply chains and changing cost structures to workforce availability and long-term site selection decisions, the conversation focuses on how companies are adapting without overreacting.
Rather than predicting policy outcomes, this episode examines how flexibility, resilience, and strong fundamentals are shaping modern growth strategies—and what communities can do to remain competitive as conditions continue to evolve.
