E61 - Making a Difference: Teaching, Running for Office, and Leading in the White House (Dr. Ronnie Chatterji)
Dr. Ronnie Chatterji returned to Fuqua in 2023, after serving in the White House as implementation lead for the $52 billion CHIPS and Science Act. He thrives at the intersection of academia, public policy, and business, working as a professor and researcher at Fuqua for the past 18 years. He has co-authored 2 books, published over 30 peer-reviewed articles, and written op-eds in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and Harvard Business Review. Ronnie has also worked in President Obama's Council of Economic Advisers and he ran for State Treasurer of North Carolina in the 2020 election.
We often hear Ronnie talk about business and policy issues. But we've never heard the behind the scenes of his unique career and life...until now. It’s a longer episode, but it's packed with rich stories, valuable insights, and practical advice. Listen to the end to learn how Ronnie has made a difference and how you can too.
