Deb Curtis – Equity in the Workplace & in Business Acquisition

  1. Deb Curtis - Equity in the Workplace & in Business Acquisition Boom With A Bang! 59:22

Gender discrimination is part of the discussion today.  Many of we Boomers might recognize the theme of Deb Curtis’ stories… only hers are from the 1990s and later, not the 1960s or 70s!

Deb took all she learned over her 30-year career however, and built a small business supporting other women looking to acquire a small business, especially women of diverse groups.  The Wisdom of women-owned business can be found in many developing nations – why not the US? 

Deb has some great insights into the issue… I got to thinking she could be a policy advisor to whoever write the rules!  And she explains the process of small business acquisition loans.

If you’re a Boomer who’s thinking of retiring from your small business, Deb discusses that at some length too… think “succession plan”.  Or… perhaps you’re a Boomer looking to buy a business for that ‘next chapter’!

Deb closes with a dream for the future where equity and diversity and inclusion are facts of life.

I’ve probably done most of the things you expect a woman my age to have done: married and divorced; three children; variety of jobs over the years including a couple of home-based businesses and, finally, a pretty good career; gave up that career (and home and life) to move and take care of a dementing mother; adult daughter moved back home with a baby; financial struggles; sucker-punched by the post-2007 economy. You tell a similar story.

My podcast is for Boomer Women. A variety of subjects, a variety of viewpoints... and open to suggestions if I'm not covering a topic you want to hear about.
