David Ricks called on government for help fix Indiana’s business climate. I think we will have to do more—a lot more. State government simply lacks the technological sophistication, budgetary discipline and political consensus to do enough.
Government and policymakers have a large role to play in addressing the state’s economic challenges. But they can’t do it alone. Nor should we expect them to.
While discussions about opportunities for improvement are important, they should also be framed in context of relative strengths. Indiana is strong and getting stronger.
Rotation can’t be used as an excuse to shuffle mediocre performers around just because it’s easier than exiting them, or as a tactic to keep truly unhappy or poor culture fit employees from quitting for a few more months.
I’ve always likened financially weaning adult children to the moment you taught the same children to ride their bikes without training wheels.
In our opinion, the only reason inflation expectations aren’t higher is that the Fed hasn’t lost all credibility in its commitment to lowering inflation.
You could go down the lineup the other night and find all manners of unique journeys to Victory Field.
The aim is for Elanco’s new headquarters to serve as a catalyst for research, development and the creation of new businesses focused on animal health.

This ability creates the potential to generate the most lucrative economic value of any state or local incentive program in Indiana.
Yes, you are very familiar with the Great Resignation, but how much do you know about the “Great Retirement?” The phenomenon is real.

Using carbon credits to help fund Indy Parks or land acquisition is not a slam dunk. But it’s an idea worth learning more about.
CEO Jeff Simmons’ goal is to make Indianapolis “an epicenter of animal health innovation.” While a bold goal, Simmons has proven he is a bold leader who prioritizes the growth of his company, as well as the community.
Our healthy state budget surplus provides some insulation against inflation, at least for the near term. Local governments are more vulnerable to elevated costs lingering into next year.
Health insurers must publicly file rates with the Indiana Department of Insurance and those filings must outline all aspects of what goes into the rates, including profit. Nowhere can that same information be found for hospitals because they are unregulated.
The proposal would cram far more density into and change the character of that side of White River, grossly violating the density principle of the city’s 2018 comprehensive land use plan.
