Synopsis

Debt Defaults Rise examines the widespread debt defaults in the United States during the Great Depression, specifically focusing on municipal and farm debt. By 1934, these sectors faced systemic failures, revealing vulnerabilities within the nation's economic structure. The book argues that defaults were not isolated incidents but rather systemic failures rooted in flawed financial practices. For instance, municipalities, burdened by infrastructure investments from the 1920s and crippled by declining tax revenues, struggled to meet obligations. The book highlights how understanding these historical defaults is crucial for informing contemporary policy decisions related to debt management.

 
The book progresses by first establishing the historical context, detailing the economic conditions leading up to the Great Depression, including the expansion of credit and speculative bubbles. It then analyzes the causes and consequences of municipal and farm debt defaults through case studies. Finally, it assesses the long-term impact of these defaults and the New Deal era policy responses.

 
The analysis draws on various primary and secondary sources, including municipal financial records and farm foreclosure data, creating a quantitative assessment alongside qualitative narratives, offering a comprehensive account of this pivotal period.

Reverse Mentoring - Removing...

Patrice Gordon

“You can’t help but be excited about what the future will look like, if all businesses embrace Patrice’s passion for reverse mentorship; her passion for a world in which all businesses are 100 percent diverse, inclusive, and equitable shines through on every page.”--From the Foreword by Holly Branson, Chief Purpose and Vision Officer of Virgin Group   Most organizations today strive for goals such as employee diversity, inclusive leadership, and younger and fresher ideas. But how do we get there?   In her trailblazing Reverse Mentorship program, world-renowned executive coach and personal development advocate Patrice Gordon creates a safe and engaging culture by having senior leaders learn from junior employees. While typical mentoring programs arrange for a senior manager to teach the more junior employee, Reverse Mentoring is the opposite: it’s all about a leader leaning into their vulnerability, forming a relationship with an underrepresented employee, and amplifying the voice of marginalized people within the company.Reverse Mentoring offers various tips to make reverse mentorship work. Gordon explores the power of uncomfortable and awkward moments becoming key points of transformation when people have to pause, reflect and assess their past behaviors and current assumptions which are at odds with the topic at hand. She ultimately reveals how bringing more humanity into our organizations allows us to see one another and ourselves in a radically new light.
