Business Pulse, a special section containing results from the most comprehensive survey of county business leaders ever conducted, will be published Thursday in the Orange County Edition of The Times.

Based on survey responses from 562 executives and supplemented with more than 50 follow-up interviews, the 20-page section examines national and local economic forecasts, the best and worst features of doing business in the county, the level of support for the pending slow-growth initiative and the county’s most influential business and political leaders.
