Driving Impact: How Golf Fuels Michigan’s Economy and Communities
In this episode of Insight, host Ariel Backus sits down with Jada Paisley, CMP, executive director of the Michigan Golf Course Association. Jada shares how the organization supports golf course owners and operators while highlighting the industry’s $6 billion economic impact in Michigan—including $1 billion tied to tourism. Despite being a seasonal state, Michigan ranks fourth nationally in golf tourism. The conversation also explores workforce development efforts like the state’s first registered agronomy apprenticeship program, as well as the role golf courses play in community growth and environmental stewardship. Jada closes with a call to young professionals to consider the wide-ranging career opportunities the golf industry has to offer.
