How to Navigate European Labor Economics - Julius Probst

In today’s episode, I chat with Julius Probst, European Labor Economist at AppCast. A PhD graduate from Lund University in Economic History, Julius brings a unique perspective to the table, combining his knowledge of historical economic patterns with current macroeconomic trends.

Julius starts by sharing his journey, from his early passion for macroeconomics and monetary economics during his bachelor's and master's studies, to his role at Appcast. 

The conversation then shifts to the heart of European labor economics. Julius provides an in-depth analysis of current trends, emphasizing how macroeconomic factors such as inflation, GDP growth, and policy decisions influence labor market dynamics. He highlights the importance of demographic variables, drawing connections between population trends and workforce changes, and how these elements are integrated into his economic analyses.

Demographic trends make this an important discussion for those considering the future of organizational talent. What got us here simply won’t get us there as our population rapidly ages. 

It was another in a line of memorable discussions. And I hope you enjoy this as much as we did recording it.
