Mark Lautman is an economic architect and thought leader from New Mexico. His new book, "The Sorting", became available on Amazon.com in mid 2010. Mark Lautman is a Certified Economic Developer (CEcD) and member of the International Economic Development Council. He is gaining notoriety with his theory, E > P, a somewhat gloomy forecast of labor force deficiencies which, he argues, will inevitably drive the ways companies choose their expansion or consolidation locations in the future. He has been invited to speak at TEDx and Google Fiber Campaigns on this topic.
Mark Lautman is also among the earliest to recognize and begin responding to what is generally known as the Home-based Worker phenomenon, in which increasing numbers of companies and workers are choosing to operate out of the employee's home. Mark Lautman currently writes a column for the New Mexico Business Weekly and head his Community Economic Lab.
Mark has been a practicing economic developer for nearly three decades.

Most recently, Mark was Vice President of Economic Development at Forest City Enterprises and Covington Capital.
