In this episode of Caddyshack to Corner Office, host Kai Sato welcomes Jon Orszag, Founding Partner of Econic Partners, an economic consulting firm with a global footprint. He was previously a co-founder of Compass Lexecon, LLC, an economic consulting firm. Prior to entering the private sector, Jon served as the Assistant to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce and Director of the Office of Policy and Strategic Planning. Jon shares his unique journey from caddying at Brooklawn Country Club to advising major corporations on mergers, antitrust matters, and economic strategy. The discussion examines Jon’s remarkable career trajectory — including working with President Clinton at the White House right after graduating from Princeton — and explores his lifelong passion for golf. He reflects on the invaluable lessons golf has taught him, his extensive involvement as a board member of both the TGR Foundation (formerly the Tiger Woods Foundation) and The First Tee, and why he continues to give back to the game he loves. Jon has accomplished the rare feat of playing Golf's Top 100 Courses, where he has also served as a course rater.
