PARIS OLYMPIC REVIEW

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

Americans should celebrate the great performance Team USA showed the world in Paris. Team USA won more medals than anyone, tied with China for most golds, and now will host the next summer games in Los Angeles.

In the podcast episode below, I discuss the Olympics, opportunities for more medals, and the economic reality for Olympic hosts. Please experience this gold medal episode below.

SMALL BUSINESS EXPERIENCE

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

I take the approach that all business, large, medium, and small, is good for society. Large scale organizations provide the masses with gainful employment. Medium and small businesses are the pillar of many communities throughout our nation. Think of any community that you believe provides good services, high quality of living, and adequate security and you will see a vibrant small business environment.

In the podcast episode below, I discuss the small business experience in our current society and offer some ideas on how to improve it. Remember every large or medium organization was once a small business. Please experience this special episode below.

BIDEN SUCCUMBS TO POLITICAL PRESSURE

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

Joe Biden has given into the chorus of prominent Democrats seeking to save their own political careers by ending his. The self proclaimed best candidate could not defeat the self serving voices of his party. The end of the controversial and challenging Biden Era has arrived.

In the podcast episode below, Biden’s exit is discussed as well as surrounding issues and questions. Please experience this special episode below.

POLITICAL STAKES

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

The stakes are already high. So, there is no reason to frivolously raise them any higher. One moment can rarely overcome the perception that consistent pattern of behaviors and judgment demonstrates. Each fleeting and missed opportunity will just make the every next one more risky, not the pattern of a true leader.

In the podcast episode below, I discuss how the outcome of the next election may be already decided by untimely gambles that did not pay off and did more harm to the gambler than the opponent. Please experience this episode below.

PRINCIPLE POSITIONS

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

As we celebrate our nation’s independence, we need to remember what makes America its greatest. That is our values. Our economic values empowering people to drive our society. Our social values intended to protect our communities. Our governing values to protect the people from the overreach of the government.

In the podcast episode below, I discuss how to improve the condition of our society by restoring our strongly held values. Please experience this episode below.

BRAND REVIEW: ESPN

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

The worldwide leader in sports is a key cog of the Walt Disney Corporation and a steady leader in ratings for sports commentary and news content. But, like many market leaders, there are areas of the brand that consumers find unappealing. Some areas where the brand simply is underperforming.

In the podcast episode below, I discuss the ESPN brand from a perspective of how one might go about competing with them. Please experience this brand review below.

REAL IDENTITY

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

Our demographics play a role in shaping our identity. But, the decisions we make, the attitudes we hold, and the behaviors we show play a much greater role. The hobbies we choose to pursue. Our interests and dislikes shape who we are far more than things we are given that are outside of our control.

The role of identity is a hot topic in our society. But, I think the focus should be more on people shaping their own individual identity than fighting of the perceived identity that society might place on people. In the podcast episode below, I discuss this very topic.

A GOOD BRAND

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the both the economic and political side of life.

Running a business is an extremely difficult challenge in itself. Growing that business into a brand that the market understands and trust is even more difficult. Consumers are brand conscious because it helps navigate the sea of endless competitive options. For instance, most people trust the Apple or Samsung brands more than the local offering at the nearest Best Buy.

How well a brand manages change is important. Especially change occurring outside of its sphere of control. In this podcast episode, The Good Brand, I discuss the importance of branding and look at how the explosive growth in interest in women’s basketball is being handled by the brands associated with it.

THE TRUE VALUE

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the economic side of life.

I am firm believer in investing into assets where you have a reasonable understanding of how the value is created and how well growth can be predicted in the future. It may not be the exciting or breaking edge approach, but the returns are more stable and predictable.

In the same manner, I believe that society should invest in the values that are proven useful and productive. We have experienced the risk of investing in radical views. In this podcast episode, I discuss the concept of value from a financial perspective and political approach.

THE INFORMATION INDUSTRY

My name is Christopher Peter and welcome to The Christopher Peter Review, which is your source for the economic side of life.

I truly believe that being informed is important in life. Understanding what is going on in the world, why it is happening, and how the events need to be managed is important. Also, there is an importance on knowing what the fact, evidence, and data is and what the narratives are out there.

How has the institutions that transmit information impact our level of knowledge? What are the issues impacting our society and how are influencers managing how we understand them? In this podcast episode, I discuss the media industry and important issues facing our society.
