Recommendation

Since 2021, inflation has vexed consumers, preoccupied central bankers and dominated headlines. Businesses have responded with a rash of price increases, but what’s the right way for corporate managers to cope with inflation, particularly when many companies have never operated in an inflationary environment? Pricing experts Hermann Simon and Adam Echter weigh in with this brief manual that walks organizational leaders through the calculus of responding to inflation. The authors argue that it’s not as simple as raising prices; you’ll need to consider a host of factors that could likely change your business forever.

Take-Aways

  • Inflation has returned, and that’s forcing managers to change how they do business.
  • For business operators, inflationary climates are tricky to navigate.
  • Inflationary periods catch everyone by surprise.
