Housing: HOPE VI: The Right Paradigm for Affordable Housing Development?
From: islandia.law.yale.edu
"Topic:
At the close of the 1990s, about one in eight American
families were spending over 50 percent of their incomes on housing,
while three in ten households were devoting at least 30 percent of their
incomes to housing. At today's fair market rental prices, two-worker
households earning the minimum wage cannot afford a typical two-bedroom
apartment. Federal housing assistance still falls far short of relieving
the severe cost burdens of the poorest households."
NHSScotland Leadership Development Framework (Draft)
From: www.scotland.gov.uk
"There is a healthy tension here. With the current emphasis on 'leadership
development', we must not lose sight of the need for basic management
development - for people leading clinical teams, community teams, functional
teams and project teams. Managers are encouraged to emerge through clinical
routes, for example, and often have to 'pick up' management / leadership
development on a do-it-yourself basis. It is simply not good enough to expect
experienced clinicians to be effective managers without providing access to
comprehensive leadership / management development."
