Financial & Social Crisis Brewing Due To Flawed Leadership? | Bethany McLean
The systems that run our economy are only as good as the people running them.
With hot inflation, the recent debt ceiling standoff, bank failures & scandals like FTX — it’s understandable to wonder if we couldn’t find better leaders than the ones we current have in place.
Which is shy we’re very fortunate to have Bethany McLean join us on the program today.
A Slate columnist and contributing editor for Vanity Fair, Bethany worked for thirteen years as editor-at-large at Fortune, where she and fellow reporter Peter Elkind exposed the Enron scandal. She’s also the nationally bestselling co-author of The Smartest Guys in the Room and All the Devils Are Here , exposés that dug deep into the global financial crisis and business ethics – which make her a perfect expert for today’s topic of leadership.
