He directs a Washington-based policy institute, the Manufacturing Policy Project, and teaches Advanced Issues Management at George Washington University's Graduate School of Political Management. Pat Choate also co-hosts the nationally syndicated weekly radio program "The Week Ahead."
Dr. Choate has held several positions in the U.S. Department of Commerce, the Office of Management and Budget, and in the governments of Tennessee and Oklahoma.
Between 1981 and 1990, he was employed by TRW - initially as its Senior Policy Analyst for Economics and then as the multinational conglomerate's Vice president for Policy Analysis. Pat Chaote has served on several national commissions, including two Presidential Commissions that analyzed federally funded training programs.

Pat is the author of more than 200 articles, monographs, professional papers, and reports on U.S. competitiveness, trade, education, training, technology, politics, and public policy.
His best-selling book, Agents of Influence brought international attention to the role of politics in global economic competitiveness. The High Flex Society, highlighted the decline of American competitiveness, and America in Ruins documented the decay of the U.S. infrastructure. He co-authored Thinking Strategically, a guide on how to think about the future, Being Number One: Rebuilding the U.S. Economy which identified basic problems in the American manufacturing and service sectors, and Save Your Job, Save Our Country: Why NAFTA Must Be Stopped Now, a critical analysis of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
In May of 1996 Dr. Choate became Chairman of the populist radio network, UNW (United Broadcasting Network) and began to host a nightly show with newsmakers debating and discussing the issues of the day. The show will be carried over 300 markets nationally. Beginning in July, Pat will be heard nightly on his newsmaker hour where he will discuss the issues of the day with guests in the news and the call in audience.
